Synceria Safety Policy

1. Prohibited Content and Conduct

We prohibit conduct that threatens public or personal safety, including:

• Harassment, threats, stalking, or intimidation
• Hate speech, discrimination, or violent content
• Scams, fraud, impersonation, or solicitation
• Non-consensual sexual content or exploitation
• Sharing personal information of others without consent
• Any illegal activity or content involving minors

Child Safety Standards

Synceria is intended solely for adults aged 18 and over, and we take the protection of minors very seriously. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy toward any content or conduct that exploits, endangers, or depicts minors. If we discover that an account belongs to someone under 18, or that an adult user is engaging with a minor through our service, the account will be terminated immediately and the appropriate authorities will be notified. Any reports of suspected child exploitation-including grooming, trafficking, harassment, or the sharing of explicit material involving minors-will be investigated promptly. We encourage users to report any behavior or content that may involve a minor; doing so helps us uphold the safety of our community and comply with all applicable laws regarding the protection of children.

2. Background Checks and Verification

• Background checks: We do not conduct background checks on members.
• Identity verification: We do not verify identity at this time.
• Age verification: In states where age verification is required by law (currently Utah and Louisiana), we use the Google Play Age Signals API (Android) for on-device age range attestation beyond self-reporting. The verification runs entirely on-device via Google Play services, and no age data is transmitted to our servers or to Google. In all other states, we rely on user-provided information.

3. Reporting and How to Report

You can report profiles or messages in-app or by email:

• Use the in-app Report button on a profile or message
• Email admin@vibinllc.com
• For emergencies, contact local law enforcement

Nonconsensual Intimate Image (NCII) Removal

Synceria complies with the federal TAKE IT DOWN Act (S.146). If you have been depicted in an intimate image that has been shared without your consent, you can request removal in two ways:

• Open the report sheet on a profile or message in-app and select Intimate Image Without Consent
• Submit a request at synceriaapp.com/ncii-removal (no Synceria account required)

Valid requests are actioned within 48 hours. We also take reasonable technological measures to prevent re-upload of removed content. See Terms of Service §7 for the full removal procedure and appeal mechanism.

4. Enforcement and Appeals

Depending on severity, we may issue warnings, suspend accounts, or ban users.

Appeals for suspensions or bans are available via email to admin@vibinllc.comwith the subject line "Appeal: Ban or Suspension." We may request additional information to review an appeal.

5. Member Notifications After Reports

We do not routinely notify other members who have had contact with a reported user. We may take steps to mitigate risk, including removing content or restricting access.

6. Consent and Sexual Misconduct

Sexual conduct without consent is prohibited by this Safety Policy and may result in criminal or civil liability.
