Sugare is an adults-only platform. Users must be at least 18 years old to create an account or use the platform.

We maintain a zero-tolerance approach toward child sexual abuse, exploitation, grooming, and any activity that endangers minors. We actively implement age verification checkpoints and swift administrative remedies to preserve the integrity of our community.

Zero Tolerance Policy: Any account attempting to promote, share, facilitate, or solicit child sexual abuse material or contact with minors is subject to immediate permanent termination, device ban, and criminal referral to appropriate law enforcement authorities.

2. Prohibited Content and Behaviour

Sugare strictly prohibits:

•

Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM): Any imagery, video, audio, digital representation, or text depicting or facilitating child sexual abuse.

•

Sexual Exploitation or Abuse of Minors: Any attempt to exploit, traffic, or abuse anyone under the age of 18.

Grooming & Inappropriate Contact: Grooming or attempting to establish contact with minors for sexual or exploitative purposes.

•

Sexual Solicitation & Trafficking: Any commercial sexual solicitation, commercial exploitation, or trafficking of children.

Sharing or Requesting Sexual Imagery of Minors: Soliciting, requesting, transmitting, distributing, or possessing sexual images of minors.

•

Age Evasion: Attempts to circumvent or evade age restrictions, age verification checks, or onboarding safeguards.

Violations will result in immediate account suspension or permanent termination without prior notice.

3. Reporting and User Feedback

Users can report suspicious profiles, inappropriate messages, or child safety concerns through the reporting functionality available within the Sugare app:

In-App Report Feature: On any profile or inside any chat conversation, tap the options menu (•••), select Report User, and choose the underage or appropriate safety category.
Direct Safety Email: You can also report immediate safety concerns directly to our Trust & Safety desk at sugare.app@gmail.com.

We encourage users to report any suspected child exploitation or abuse immediately. All child safety reports will be reviewed with urgency and appropriate action will be taken.

4. Moderation and Enforcement

Sugare takes reports of CSAE and CSAM seriously.

When we become aware of suspected prohibited content or behaviour, our moderation and compliance teams will:

Review the Reported Account: Promptly inspect the reported profile, message transcripts, uploaded media, and all available telemetry.

Remove Confirmed Prohibited Content: Permanently purge offending images from our Cloudinary CDN and internal storage.

Suspend or Permanently Terminate Accounts: Instantly revoke account access and block the associated user identity and device.

Prevent Repeat Violations: Implement device-level, email-level, and cryptographic hash-level blocks to prevent repeat registrations.

Preserve Information for Authorities: Preserve relevant logs, media identifiers, and connection records where legally required or permissible for reporting to law enforcement agencies.

5. Cooperation with Law Enforcement & Global Hotlines

Sugare complies with statutory legal obligations and cooperates with domestic and international child protection entities:

National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC): When CSAM or child exploitation is detected, we preserve evidence and file reports through the NCMEC CyberTipline.
National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal (India): We comply with the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act and the Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, escalating actionable evidence to the Indian cybercrime portal (cybercrime.gov.in).
