Child Safety Policy
One Night Stand
Last Updated: February 11, 2026
Zero Tolerance for Child Exploitation
One Night Stand has a strict zero-tolerance policy for any content or behavior involving minors. We are committed to maintaining a safe, adults-only platform and actively work to prevent, detect, and report any child sexual abuse material (CSAM) or exploitation.
1. Overview
One Night Stand is an adults-only dating platform designed exclusively for users aged 18 years and older. This Child Safety Policy outlines our comprehensive approach to:
- Preventing access by minors (anyone under 18 years of age)
- Detecting and removing child sexual abuse material (CSAM)
- Reporting illegal content to appropriate authorities
- Cooperating with law enforcement investigations
- Maintaining compliance with child protection laws worldwide
We take our responsibility to protect children extremely seriously and employ multiple layers of protection, including automated detection systems, human moderation, and partnerships with child safety organizations.
2. Age Requirements
2.1. Minimum Age
You must be at least 18 years old to create an account or use One Night Stand.
By creating an account, you represent and warrant that:
- You are at least 18 years of age
- You have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement
- You are not using the service on behalf of a minor
- All information you provide regarding your age is accurate and truthful
2.2. Geographic Variations
In jurisdictions where the age of majority is higher than 18, users must meet the local age requirement. Our service automatically adjusts age requirements based on your location.
2.3. Consequences of Age Misrepresentation
Providing false age information is a serious violation that results in:
- Immediate account termination
- Permanent ban from the platform
- Potential reporting to law enforcement if a minor is involved
- Legal liability for fraud or terms of service violations
3. Age Verification Measures
We employ multiple methods to verify user age and prevent minors from accessing the platform:
3.1. Registration Verification
Date of Birth Requirement
Users must provide their date of birth during registration. Accounts showing an age under 18 are automatically rejected.
Photo Verification
Our AI-powered photo verification analyzes facial features to estimate age and flags accounts that appear to belong to minors.
Document Verification (Optional)
Users can upload government-issued ID for enhanced verification. This helps confirm identity and age authenticity.
Payment Method Verification
Premium features require payment methods that typically require the account holder to be 18+.
3.2. Ongoing Monitoring
Age verification doesn't stop at registration. We continuously monitor for:
- Profile photos that appear to show minors
- Self-reported age information in bios or messages
- User reports of suspected underage accounts
- Behavioral patterns inconsistent with adult users
