Child Safety Standards
These standards apply to Flapp, the app published on the App Store and Google Play by Molecorp Esports Sociedad Limitada under the ForumCopilot name ("we"). We have zero tolerance for child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE), including child sexual abuse material (CSAM), anywhere the app reaches.
What is prohibited
A child is anyone under 18. Using Flapp for any of the following is prohibited:
- Child sexual abuse material: any photo, video, drawing, computer-generated or AI-generated image, or text that shows a child in a sexual way or sexualises a child.
- Grooming: contacting or befriending a child in order to sexually abuse or exploit them, online or in person.
- Sextortion: threatening or pressuring a child to get sexual images, money or anything else.
- Trafficking and solicitation: offering, advertising or asking for a child for sexual purposes.
- Sharing, trading or asking for any of the above, including links to it, and content that promotes, normalises or teaches child sexual abuse.
This covers posts, private discussions, messages, profiles, avatars and uploaded files.
Who moderates what
Flapp is an app for reading and taking part in forums that run the Flarum software. The posts and messages you see in it are stored on each forum's own servers and moderated by that forum's staff. Flapp does not host that content, and we cannot delete it from someone else's forum, but we act on every report we receive, as described below.
Report it in the app
- A post or a message in a private discussion: tap ⋮ on it, then Flag. Choose Inappropriate, or Other, and say what you saw. Flags go straight to that forum's moderators.
- A person: choose Ignore from the ⋮ menu on one of their posts to stop seeing them, where the forum allows it. Flag what they posted too, so the moderators know.
Flagging needs you to be logged in to that forum. You can always email us instead.
Report it to us
Email forumcopilot@gmail.com with the subject "Child safety". Tell us the forum's address and the link to the post, discussion or profile. Send the link only: do not attach, screenshot or forward the images or files themselves, as copying them can itself be a crime. We handle child safety reports before any other mail, and we do not tell the forum or the person you reported who you are, unless the law requires it.
If a child is in immediate danger, call your local emergency number first.
What we do with a report
We tell the forum's administrators, with the link, and ask them to remove the content; report it to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and to the law enforcement or national hotline of the country where the forum is hosted; and remove the forum from Flapp's directory if it hosts such material or does not act on it.
The law
We comply with the child safety laws that apply to us, including the obligation to report child sexual abuse material to the authorities, and we cooperate with law enforcement requests made through proper legal channels.
Age
Flapp is not directed at children under 13. Each forum sets its own minimum age for its members.
