Overview

People may use Unpress discuss and draw attention to Our platform is dedicated to creating a safe and welcoming environment for users of all backgrounds. As such, we strictly prohibit sexual solicitation, including explicit or implicit requests for sexual favors, services, or content. We also restrict sexually-explicit language that may lead to sexual solicitation. This policy aims to prevent harmful or exploitative interactions and protect the well-being of our community members.

Unpress may be used to discuss issues surrounding sexual violence and exploitation, and we do not want to impede that discussion. We also allow for the discussion of sex worker rights advocacy, and sex work regulation. We draw the line, however, when content facilitates, encourages or coordinates sexual encounters or commercial sexual services between adults. We do this to avoid facilitating transactions that may involve trafficking, coercion and non-consensual sexual acts.We also restrict sexually-explicit language that may lead to sexual solicitation because some audiences within our global community may be sensitive to this type of content, and it may impede the ability for people to connect with their friends and the broader communityThe platform allows for the expression of sexual desires, promotion of sex education, non-graphic discussions of sexual practices or experiences, and offering classes or programs that teach techniques or address sexual topics.

Our team will review reported content and take appropriate action, including content removal, account restrictions, or bans for repeated or severe violations. Together, we can create a safe and inclusive community for all users.
