Child Safety Reporting
How to report child sexual abuse material or child endangerment, what happens after you report, and where to turn if a child is in immediate danger.
There are two ways, and both reach us at the highest priority. On any poem, comment, image, or profile, open the menu and choose Report, pick Child safety concern, and add anything that helps in the Additional Details box. These reports go straight to our team as urgent. Or use the Contact form and select Child/Sexual Abuse Material as the issue type. You don't need to gather evidence — just tell us where the content is, and please don't share or re-post it. Full guide: Reporting child sexual abuse material →
We treat it as urgent. Your report goes straight to our team, who review it as a priority. Content that breaks this rule is taken down, and the accounts involved are removed. Apparent child sexual abuse material (CSAM) is reported to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) CyberTipline, as U.S. law requires. Any investigation is handled by NCMEC and the authorities, not by GS Poetry.
Call 911 (or your local emergency number) right away — that comes first. You can also report directly to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) CyberTipline at report.cybertip.org. Reaching emergency services and the CyberTipline is the fastest way to protect a child.
No. Reports are confidential — the person you report is never told who reported them. For child sexual abuse material (CSAM), we also don't tip off the account that a report was filed with the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) or with law enforcement.
No. Please don't download, save, forward, or investigate the material yourself — just tell us where it is using the in-app Report tool or the Contact form. Our team and the appropriate authorities handle it from there.
Zero tolerance. Child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and any content that sexualizes, endangers, or exploits a minor is never allowed on GS Poetry under any circumstance. Accounts involved are removed, and apparent CSAM is reported to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) CyberTipline and law enforcement. See our Terms and Conditions for the full Child Safety clause.
