Statement about Child Sexual Abuse & Exploitation

Just Be Kind App

Effective Date: May 31, 2023

​

When using the Just Be Kind app, do not create, upload, or distribute content that exploits or abuses children. This includes all child sexual abuse materials. 

​

More broadly, Values-in-Action and the Just Be Kind App prohibits the use of our app to endanger children. This includes but is not limited to predatory behavior towards children such as:

• ‘Child grooming’ (for example, befriending a child online to facilitate, either online or offline, sexual contact and/or exchanging sexual imagery with that child);

• ‘Sextortion’ (for example, threatening or blackmailing a child by using real or alleged access to a child’s intimate images)

• Sexualization of a minor (for example, imagery that depicts, encourages or promotes the sexual abuse of children or the portrayal of children in a manner that could result in the sexual exploitation of children); and

• Trafficking of a child (for example, advertising or solicitation of a child for commercial sexual exploitation).

Such content will require appropriate action, which may include reporting to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children and contacting the police. If you believe a child is in danger of or has been subject to abuse, exploitation, or trafficking, contact the police immediately.
