Children's privacy and child safety standards

9.1 Children's privacy

Splynk is not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA/UK where applicable). Consistent with the U.S. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

9.2 Our position on child safety

Splynk has zero tolerance for child sexual abuse material (CSAM), grooming, sexual extortion, or any conduct that endangers minors. Accounts found to violate these standards are permanently removed, and we cooperate with law enforcement.

9.3 Prohibited content and conduct

The following are strictly prohibited on Splynk:

  • Any image, video, audio, or text depicting the sexual abuse or exploitation of a minor.
  • Grooming, solicitation, or any attempt by an adult to engage a minor in sexual conversation, contact, or meet-up.
  • Sharing, requesting, or trading sexual content involving minors, including AI-generated or stylized depictions.

  • Trust & Safety review: all reports are reviewed; confirmed CSAE content is preserved as required by law and removed from the platform.
  • Pattern detection: repeated abusive behavior, mass reports, or signals consistent with grooming trigger account-level review and, where warranted, suspension.

  • Staff training: personnel handling reports are trained on CSAE indicators and the legal preservation obligations that apply.

Reports may be made anonymously.

  • We acknowledge reports within 24 hours.
  • Confirmed violations result in immediate content removal and permanent account termination.
