Child Safety Standards

Effective date: June 16, 2026 · Boyensea

Middle Spot is a social app designed for adults to facilitate meaningful in-person connections through shared interests and conversation prompts. The safety and protection of minors is a non-negotiable priority. This page describes our standards and practices against child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE).

1. Prohibited Content and Conduct

Middle Spot has a zero-tolerance policy for child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and any content or behavior that sexualizes, exploits, grooms, or endangers minors. The following are strictly prohibited on Middle Spot:

• Any content that sexually exploits or abuses minors
• Grooming behavior or attempts to establish inappropriate relationships with minors
• Sharing, soliciting, or distributing CSAM in any form
• Using the app to facilitate offline harm to minors

Violations result in immediate account termination and, where required by law, reporting to the relevant authorities including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and local law enforcement.

2. Age Requirements

Middle Spot is intended for users aged 13 and older. Users under the age of 13 are not permitted to create an account or use the app. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that a user under 13 has created an account, we will terminate that account and delete associated data.

3. In-App Reporting

Users can report child safety concerns directly within the app. To report inappropriate content or behavior:

• Navigate to the relevant content or user profile
• Use the report function available in the app
• Select "Child safety" as the reason for the report

All child safety reports are reviewed promptly. Reports involving potential CSAM or imminent danger to a minor are escalated immediately to law enforcement and the appropriate clearinghouse (e.g., NCMEC CyberTipline in the United States).

4. Compliance with Laws

Middle Spot complies with all applicable child safety laws and regulations, including:

• The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA)
• The PROTECT Our Children Act
• Applicable regional child safety reporting obligations

We report to regional and national authorities as required by law when we detect or receive reports of CSAM or child exploitation.

5. Prevention Practices

We take a proactive approach to child safety:

• Moderation processes are in place to review flagged content
• We partner with industry initiatives to stay current on best practices for child online protection
• Profile answers and generated content are reviewed for policy compliance
• Accounts exhibiting grooming patterns or targeting minors are removed without notice
