Legal & compliance
Acceptable Use & Content Policy
JoinTheSwing is a non-explicit adults-only dating and community service. This Policy applies to every profile, image, video, audio clip, post, comment, message, listing, tag, search term, live interaction, advertisement, and external link submitted through the service. The same rules apply to real, staged, illustrated, computer-generated, and AI-generated material.
1. Prelaunch and pre-publication rule
General user-generated-content submissions are disabled during prelaunch. When submissions are enabled, only verified creators who accepted the current content-provider agreement may upload, and every item must remain quarantined and invisible to other users until human pre-publication review approves it. A user may not self-approve, publish, or obtain an original-file delivery URL. Live streaming and content downloads are not offered.
2. Creator and depicted-person requirements
- Every creator must be an adult whose identity, age, and possession of a valid government ID have been verified.
- Every depicted person must be an identified adult and must give documented, informed consent to appear and to the specific upload or distribution.
- Consent to create content is separate from consent to publish it. Download consent would be separate if downloads were ever introduced.
- Current product scope permits only single-person member media unless every additional depicted adult completes verification and consent review.
- The uploader must own the content or have written authority from all rights holders.
- Records must be accurate, current, producible for audit, and retained under applicable law and processor rules.
3. Absolutely prohibited content and conduct
The following is prohibited even when fictional, simulated, implied, quoted, tagged, or requested:
- Minors or youth themes: any person under 18; child sexual abuse material; age ambiguity; school, teen, baby, young-looking, or other youth-coded sexualization; or attempts to evade age controls.
- Non-consent or incapacity: rape, coercion, blackmail, exploitation, hidden-camera material, stolen or revenge content, intoxication, drugging, unconscious or sleeping people, or anyone unable to give informed consent.
- Commercial sexual activity: prostitution, escorting, paid sexual services, solicitation, trafficking, grooming, recruitment, travel for exploitation, payment handles, coded offers, or arrangements moved to another service.
- Explicit sexual visuals:depictions of actual or simulated sexually explicit conduct. JoinTheSwing's current product is non-explicit; suggestive content may also be rejected whenever it creates card-network, consent, safety, or brand risk.
- Violence and harm: assault, torture, blood, bruising, pain, mutilation, weapons, threats, death, suicide, self-harm, snuff, or necrophilia.
- Drugs and alcohol: any alcohol, illegal drug, controlled substance, intoxication theme, or drug paraphernalia is prohibited. The prohibition applies to visible or inferred use and to imagery, backgrounds, captions, profile text, metadata, audio, and external links. Policy and staff-training pages may name the rule itself but may not promote or depict the prohibited material.
- Animals, family themes, and obscenity: bestiality or non-human sexual content, incest or family-role sexualization, excretory content, or material unlawful as obscene in the relevant jurisdiction.
- Hate and abuse: hateful or extremist material, harassment, stalking, doxxing, threats, discriminatory degradation, or encouragement of abuse.
- Rights violations and deception: copyright or trademark infringement, counterfeit goods, celebrity or public-figure impersonation, deepfakes, non-consensual synthetic media, scams, malware, or materially misleading identity or product claims.
- Illegal or restricted commerce: weapons, controlled substances, stolen goods, unlawful gambling, money laundering, financial crime, or any illegal product or service.
4. Profiles, messages, links, and search terms
Prohibited rules apply to bios, usernames, captions, emojis, comments, private messages, voice notes, hashtags, metadata, external URLs, advertisements, and search terms—not only media files. Profiles may not advertise services, payment arrangements, affiliate offers, personal contact funnels, or coded prohibited activity. JoinTheSwing may maintain blocked terms and pattern detection, but automated screening never replaces human review.
5. Moderation and publication
Reviewers assess identity/attestation status, depicted-person records, source and derivative files, metadata, policy terms, and automated safety signals before deciding. Approval, rejection, quarantine, removal, and escalation decisions are recorded with reviewer, timestamp, reason, policy version, and content identifier. Only an approved privacy-safe derivative may be delivered to viewers; originals remain restricted.
6. Reporting, removal, and appeal
Anyone may report material without an account through our Complaints & Content Removal form. Illegal or apparently underage material is removed immediately, preserved as restricted evidence, and reported to Segpay and relevant authorities where necessary. Ordinary complaints are investigated and resolved within five business days. A depicted person may challenge or withdraw consent. If valid consent cannot be established, the material is removed immediately. Where required, unresolved consent disputes may be sent to a neutral body at JoinTheSwing's expense. We explain the outcome to the reporter unless law or safety limits what we can disclose.
7. Enforcement
We may reject or remove content, suspend features, preserve evidence, restrict or terminate an account, permanently ban an offender, prevent re-registration, and report suspected illegal conduct. Severe violations do not require a warning. Deletion and blocking controls remain available to users while publishing is disabled.
8. Advertising and payments
Users and affiliates may not collect card data, use a card transaction as age verification, misrepresent JoinTheSwing or its processor, advertise prohibited content, or obstruct a processor, regulator, or law-enforcement investigation. JoinTheSwing is responsible for the conduct of its approved affiliates and may revoke an affiliate immediately.
