Child Safety Standards

Last updated: 19 September 2026

These are the child safety standards of the dating app published on Google Play by the developer Taboo Dating, package name com.taboo.date. The store listing is localised, so the app appears under different names in different countries — ForbiddenFlirt in English and Taboo: Anlamlı İlişkiler Bulun in Turkish, among others. They are all the same app, published by the same developer, and these standards apply to all of them.

These standards apply to every account, profile, photo and message on the service. They form part of our Community Guidelines and our Terms & Conditions.

An adults-only service

This is a dating service for adults aged 18 and over. It is not directed to children, it is not designed for children, and we do not knowingly allow anyone under 18 to create an account or use it. Every new user must enter their date of birth during sign-up, and a date of birth under 18 blocks registration. The same check applies when a user later edits their date of birth, and it is enforced on our servers as well as in the app.

Any account we believe belongs to a minor is removed, whether or not any other rule was broken. Photos of minors are not allowed in profiles — this includes the account holder's own children.

What is prohibited

Child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE) means any content or conduct that sexually exploits, abuses or endangers a child. All of the following are prohibited on this service, without exception:

• Child sexual abuse material (CSAM) — any photo, video, drawing, rendering, animation or computer-generated depiction of a minor in a sexual context, and any link to such material.
• Sexualisation of a minor — any text, comment, emoji use, roleplay or depiction that presents a person under 18 in a sexual manner, whether the person is real or fictional.
• Grooming — befriending, manipulating or building trust with a minor, or with someone presenting as a minor, in order to sexually exploit or abuse them, or to arrange contact for that purpose.
• Sextortion — threatening to publish someone's intimate images in order to obtain further images, sexual acts, money or anything else. This is prohibited between adults as well, and it is a crime.
• Child sex trafficking — advertising, recruiting, arranging, soliciting or facilitating the sexual exploitation of a minor, and any form of commercial sexual exploitation of a child.
• Soliciting or offering nude or sexual imagery of a minor, or asking a minor for such imagery.
• Minor attraction — content that promotes, normalises, glorifies or seeks to justify sexual interest in minors.
• Off-platform conduct — using this app to arrange, promote or continue any of the above on another service.

Attempting any of the above is treated exactly the same as doing it. Sharing such content "to expose it" or "as a joke" is also prohibited — report it to us instead.

How to report it inside the app

You can report a child safety concern without leaving the app, and you do not need to have matched with the person first. Reports are confidential: the person you report is not told who reported them.

• From a profile: open the profile, tap the menu button in the top right, tap Report, then choose Child safety concern.
• From a conversation: open the chat, tap the menu button in the top right, tap Report, then choose Child safety concern.
• Block is in the same menu and takes effect immediately: a blocked person can no longer message you or reach your profile.
• Settings → Child Safety in the app opens this page.
• By email, if you cannot reach the person's profile or chat, write to the child safety contact below. Email is an alternative, not a requirement — the in-app report is enough.

Please report rather than engage. Do not download, save, re-share or reply to suspected CSAE content. Reporting it to us is enough.

What happens when a report comes in

• Reports marked as a child safety concern are placed ahead of every other report type and reviewed by a person.
• Confirmed CSAE content is removed and the account is permanently terminated. We do not accept appeals for CSAE terminations, and no refund is given for unused subscription time or virtual items.
• We prevent the terminated user from creating a new account as far as we are technically able, and we remove any other accounts we identify as belonging to the same person.
• We report apparent CSAM and other CSAE to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) through its CyberTipline, and to law enforcement in the relevant jurisdiction, as required by law.
• We preserve the related account data, content and logs for as long as necessary to support an investigation by NCMEC or law enforcement, and we respond to lawful requests from them. This preservation applies even after the account has been deleted, as described in our Privacy Policy.

Compliance with child safety laws

We comply with the applicable child safety and CSAE laws of the jurisdictions where the app is available, including reporting obligations to NCMEC. We review these standards at least once a year, and whenever we add a feature that changes how users can contact each other or share content.

Child safety point of contact

The person responsible for these standards — and the point of contact for NCMEC, law enforcement, Google and any user with a child safety concern — is Murat Uygun, of Taboo Dating, the developer that publishes com.taboo.date on Google Play.
