1. Content moderation practices
NaughtyBot employs a multi-layered moderation system:
- Heuristic keyword detection — a fast pre-check that scans user messages for patterns associated with child exploitation, coercion, and other prohibited categories. Real-time, before messages are processed.
- AI-based classification — a dedicated moderation model evaluates message content against safety categories including CSAM, non-consensual content, and self-harm. Returns a classification and confidence score.
- Stateful context tracking — per-conversation state tracks cumulative safety signals. Repeated violations result in progressively stricter moderation thresholds.
2. Automated decision-making
- Soft block — the AI redirects the conversation away from potentially harmful content (e.g., non-consensual scenarios). The user can continue using the service.
- Hard block — the message is rejected and the user is notified. Applies to content involving minors (absolute zero tolerance) and content that fails moderation due to system errors (fail-safe behaviour).
- Account suspension — triggered by detection of child exploitation content. Account is locked, evidence is preserved, and the incident is queued for human review.
All account suspension decisions triggered by automated moderation are subject to human review. No automated decision has legal or similarly significant effects on users beyond service access.
3. Reporting illegal content
- The "Report" button available in the chat interface
- Email to dsa-contact@naughtybot.me
Reports are acknowledged within 24 hours and reviewed within 7 days. Reporters are informed of the outcome and reasoning. Illegal content is removed and reported to the relevant authorities.
4. Appeal mechanism
Users whose accounts have been suspended or whose content has been moderated may appeal by emailing appeals@naughtybot.me. Appeals are reviewed by a human within 14 days. Human review may reverse an automated decision.
