Child Safety Standards
Effective: May 6, 2026 · Last updated: May 6, 2026
Zero tolerance. Single 2 Mingle has a zero-tolerance policy
for child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE). Any account, image, or
message that sexualises a minor is removed immediately, the account is
permanently banned, and the activity is reported to the National Center
for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and to law enforcement.
1. Age requirement
Single 2 Mingle is a dating service exclusively for adults aged
18 and older. We do not knowingly allow anyone under 18 to
create an account or interact on the platform.
Age is enforced at multiple levels:
- Onboarding age gate. New users must enter their age
using a numeric stepper that cannot go below 18, and must explicitly
confirm "I am at least 18 years old" before continuing.
- Server-side validation. The backend rejects any
profile update with an age below 18 (HTTP 400
invalid_age),
so a tampered client cannot bypass the gate.
- Play Store rating. The app is rated Mature 17+
and the Play Console "Target audience" is set to 18+ only.
- Identity reporting. Users can report any profile they
suspect belongs to a minor. Reports flagged "Suspected under 18" are
prioritised by our moderation queue.
2. Content prohibitions
The following content is strictly prohibited and grounds for immediate
permanent ban:
- Any image, video, or message that depicts, describes, or sexualises
a minor (a person under 18), real or computer-generated.
- Sexually suggestive content involving anyone whose age is unclear or
appears underage.
- Soliciting, grooming, or attempting to contact a minor.
- Sharing, requesting, or trading child sexual abuse material (CSAM).
- Promoting, glamorising, or facilitating child trafficking, child
marriage, or any other exploitation of minors.
3. Detection and moderation
We protect the platform through multiple layers:
- Photo monitoring. All profile photos are reviewed.
Photos that violate this policy are removed and the uploader's account
is escalated for ban.
- In-app reporting. Every profile and chat exposes a
Report action with a dedicated reason
"Suspected under 18". Reports go to our moderation queue and are
reviewed by a human within 72 hours.
- Account-level signals. Patterns associated with
underage accounts (declared age borderline-18, no other adult
indicators, suspicious profile photos) are flagged for proactive
review.
- Block tool. Users can block any other user from a
chat with one tap; the conversation is removed and they cannot be
contacted again.
4. Reporting CSAE to us
Report a CSAE concern directly
If you encounter content or behaviour you believe involves the sexual
abuse or exploitation of a minor, report it to us immediately:
In the app: Open the user's profile or chat → tap the
3-dot menu → Report user → choose
Suspected under 18 or Inappropriate photos and add a
short note.
By email: hello@techiegenz.one
Subject: CSAE report — include any user IDs, screenshots, and
context you can safely share.
We respond to CSAE reports as the highest priority and act within
24 hours.
5. Cooperation with authorities
When we identify or receive credible reports of child sexual abuse
material or exploitation, we:
- Preserve all relevant data, including images, messages, and account
metadata, in accordance with applicable law.
- Report to the National Center for Missing & Exploited
Children (NCMEC) CyberTipline
(report.cybertip.org),
or the equivalent authority in the user's jurisdiction.
- Cooperate with valid legal requests from law enforcement during the
investigation.
- Permanently disable the account and prevent re-registration on the
same email or device when feasible.
6. Survivor support
