🔒Erobella Compliance Guide: UK Online Safety Act (OSA) & Content Standards

Erobella's Commitment: Erobella is fully committed to complying with the UK Online Safety Act. Our primary goal is to ensure the safety of our users, particularly preventing minors from accessing age-restricted content, while preserving a functional and viable platform for adult creators and users. We are implementing robust, privacy-preserving systems, including Yoti, to meet the legal standard of Highly Effective Age Assurance (HEAA).

I. Executive Summary: The Erobella Mandate

The UK Online Safety Act imposes a non-negotiable legal duty on Erobella to prevent users under the age of 18 from encountering "Regulated Pornographic Content."

Erobella's strategy to meet this mandate is to Restrict Access, Not Remove Content:

• Protect Public Areas (SFW): All publicly visible areas (e.g., profile pictures, usernames) must strictly adhere to SFW standards and are open to all guests/non-verified users.

• Gate Restricted Content (NSFW): All NSFW content is automatically placed behind the Yoti Age Assurance gateway. Content is not deleted but is made invisible and inaccessible without verification.

II. Core Compliance: Highly Effective Age Assurance (HEAA) via Yoti

Erobella has partnered with Yoti to implement a robust, privacy-first age verification system that meets the legal standard of Highly Effective Age Assurance (HEAA) for all regulated content.

A. The Restriction Mechanism

• Regulated Content (NSFW): Content is automatically Restricted; it remains on the server but is made invisible without verification. Access for Non-Age Verified Users: Blocked. Users must complete the Yoti verification process to access this content.

• Public Content (SFW): Content is publicly available to all users and guests. Access for Non-Age Verified Users: Allowed. This maintains high public visibility for creators.

B. Erobella's Willingness to Comply

• Preventing Access: Integration of Yoti (a leading, regulator-approved HEAA technology) to age-gate all NSFW content.

• Protecting Content: Choosing the "Restriction" model over blanket removal, ensuring creator content remains live and accessible to verified adults.

• Proactive Risk Management: Utilising AI tagging and human moderation to identify non-compliant public-facing content (SFW vs. NSFW), demonstrating a commitment to platform-wide adherence.

III. Erobella Content Standards: SFW vs. NSFW

These definitions are critical. Erobella will use these guidelines to determine what content remains publicly visible and what is moved behind the Yoti age-gate.

A. Safe-For-Work (SFW) Content (Permitted in Public Areas)

SFW content is material that a reasonable person would not view as being created primarily to cause sexual arousal. It must be suitable for general audiences.

B. Not-Safe-For-Work (NSFW) Content (Restricted to Yoti Age-Verified Areas Only)

NSFW content is defined as Regulated Pornographic Content, or any nudity or genitalia, and must not be visible to non-age-verified users.

IV. Creator Action Plan & Moderation Process

Erobella is taking proactive steps to enforce compliance and is relying on creator cooperation to stabilize the platform's public-facing view.

• Immediate Action: AI tagging implemented for existing NSFW profile pictures and free gallery images. Content is age-gated via Yoti. Required Creator Action: Proactively review and edit profile pictures, and free gallery content to be 100% SFW.

• Ongoing Moderation: The moderation team is manually reviewing all active profiles and group content to ensure SFW areas are compliant
