Child Safety Standards
Last updated: November 7, 2026
Ringo Ringo is an app for people aged 18 and over. Ringo Ringo strictly prohibits Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation (CSAE) and has set the following standards to keep children safe.
Prohibited conduct
The following are explicitly prohibited on Ringo Ringo.
- Creating, sharing, storing or requesting Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM), including AI-generated material
- Posts or messages that sexualize a child
- Approaching a child to build trust for sexual purposes (grooming)
- Threatening a child sexually or demanding money from them (sextortion)
- Trafficking or soliciting a child, including for paid sex
- Any other form of sexual exploitation or abuse of a child
Under 18s are not allowed
We check the date of birth at sign-up and refuse anyone under 18. If we learn after sign-up that a user is under 18, we delete the account without prior notice.
How to report
In the app, choose "Report" from the menu of a person's profile or chat. If you don't use the app, write to our child safety contact:
app.ringoringo [at] gmail.com
If a child is in immediate danger, contact the police right away (110 in Japan). In Japan, the child abuse hotline of child guidance centers is 189.
How we respond
We review the reports we receive. When we confirm a violation, we remove the content and suspend or delete the account. When we suspect CSAM or harm to a child, we report it to the police or other relevant authorities and preserve the necessary information as the law requires.
Legal compliance
We comply with all laws that apply to child protection, including Japan's Act on Regulation and Punishment of Acts Relating to Child Prostitution and Child Pornography, and we cooperate with investigations by the authorities.
