You-n-Me Child Safety Standards & Anti-Exploitation Policy

Our Unwavering Commitment to Child Protection

At You-n-Me, we recognize that protecting children from sexual abuse and exploitation is not just a legal obligation—it's a moral imperative that forms the foundation of our platform's integrity. As a relationship platform designed exclusively for adults seeking genuine connections, we maintain absolute zero tolerance for any content, behavior, or activity that could endanger minors. Our comprehensive child safety framework reflects our understanding that technology platforms bear significant responsibility in preventing the exploitation of vulnerable individuals. We've implemented rigorous standards that exceed industry requirements because we believe that protecting children requires proactive measures, not reactive responses.
