Content Moderation Policy

Last updated: July 28, 2026

EyeCandyVids is a marketplace on which independent adult creators sell video clips and monthly subscriptions to verified adult buyers. Every clip is reviewed before it can be seen or purchased. This policy explains what we review, what we prohibit, how long review takes, what happens when a rule is broken, and how to appeal.

1. Purpose and scope

This policy applies to all content published on https://eyecandyvids.com (the "Site"), operated by Exipher Ventures LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company whose business operations are conducted from California and whose customers are in the United States. It binds every creator and Studio who uploads content, every performer who appears in it, every buyer who spends credits (100 credits equal $1.00) purchased through NOWPayments, and every affiliate who promotes the Site. Creator payouts are made through MassPay.

Visitor access is separately gated by age assurance: the third-party provider AgeChecked/AgeAware, through a DNS-based integration in "verify all" mode, enforced where state law requires it. That control is described at Verification and is distinct from performer age verification.

2. Nothing publishes before it is reviewed

We do not operate a publish-first, moderate-later marketplace. Every upload enters a non-public state: it cannot be unlocked with credits, previewed publicly, surfaced in search or category listings, delivered to subscribers, or reached by direct link, and it leaves that state only when a human reviewer approves it. This covers clips, subscription posts, thumbnails, previews, and profile media.

3. Creator prerequisites

Before a creator can submit content for review, the following must be complete:

Incomplete documentation is the most common reason a submission sits unpublished; we tell the creator what is missing. Creator obligations are set out in the Content Creator Agreement.

4. The pre-publication review workflow

Review proceeds in stages; a submission can be returned at any stage.

Stage 1: Upload and automated technical checks

We verify that the file is a supported, intact, playable video within accepted duration and resolution limits, and that title, description, tags, price, and thumbnail are present. Files failing these checks are rejected automatically and never reach a reviewer.

Stage 2: Automated screening signals

Submissions are screened for signals that set review priority: keyword matching against a prohibited-terminology list applied to titles, descriptions, tags, and filenames; near-duplicate detection that surfaces re-uploads of removed material; and account signals such as a new account, a recent enforcement action, or newly changed documentation. Screening is triage, never approval, and nothing is approved by automation alone. We intend to add perceptual hash matching against an established database of known illegal material, subject to eligibility and licensing. We hold no such licence today and operate no hash-matching system.

Stage 3: Human review against the prohibited-content list

A reviewer assesses the submission against section 5, covering the full runtime rather than the opening, plus the thumbnail, any preview, and all text the buyer will see. Sampling is not used for a creator's first submissions or where a screening signal is elevated.

Stage 4: Performer documentation cross-check

The reviewer compares each performer visible in the content against the documents and releases on file, confirming that everyone who appears is documented, that each face matches, that the release covers this content and its distribution, and that no document has expired or looks altered. Inconclusive comparisons are held for further documentation, never approved on the creator's assurance.

Stage 5: Decision

The reviewer records one of four outcomes: approve; approve with restrictions, which may require a title, tag, description, or thumbnail change or limit promotion; request changes, which returns the submission with required fixes and leaves it unpublished; or reject, with the reason stated. Zero-tolerance findings are not decided by the individual reviewer, who stops, removes the content, and escalates.

Stage 6: Publication

On approval the content becomes purchasable, enters search and category listings, and is delivered to subscribers. The decision, reviewer identifier, timestamp, and any restrictions are recorded.

5. Prohibited and restricted content

The first six categories are zero-tolerance: never permitted, not eligible for the enforcement ladder in section 8, and not appealable. They are stated in full in our Anti-Trafficking Policy.

Minors and apparent minors

Prohibited: any sexualized depiction of a minor or of a person who appears to be a minor, whether a recording of a real person, an edited image, a drawing, an animation, a rendering, or output generated wholly or partly by artificial intelligence. Apparent child sexual abuse material is reported to the NCMEC CyberTipline as required by 18 U.S.C. §2258A.

Non-consensual and surreptitiously recorded content

Prohibited: content published without the documented consent of every identifiable person in it, and anything presented as "leaked", stolen, hacked, taken from a compromised device, hidden-camera, upskirt, voyeur, or so-called revenge material.

Force, coercion, and trafficking

Prohibited: content produced through force, fraud, coercion, threat, blackmail, debt bondage, or trafficking, and any use of the Site to recruit or profit from a trafficked person.

Incapacity and intoxication

Prohibited: content depicting a person unconscious, asleep, intoxicated, drugged, or otherwise unable to consent when it was recorded, and content presenting a performer's capacity to consent as impaired.

Bestiality

Prohibited: sexual content involving animals, including simulated depictions.

Real violence, serious injury, and death

Prohibited: real, non-simulated violence, mutilation, torture, serious injury, or death, including the sexualization of a real injury or death.

Content presented as genuine rape or genuine non-consent

Prohibited: any content presented, titled, tagged, described, or marketed as a genuine rape or a genuine lack of consent, whatever occurred during production. Consensual fantasy roleplay, where we permit it at all, may publish only where every performer is verified and documented as consenting to the specific scenario, a statement visible before purchase confirms that all activity is consensual roleplay between adults, no title, tag, or description asserts the encounter was real, and no marketing implies genuine non-consent. Content failing any condition is rejected.

Categories commonly restricted by payment networks

Some lawful categories are restricted or prohibited by processors and payout providers. Here they include bodily waste, together with any other category our payment or payout partners restrict under their own acceptable-use terms. Where a category is restricted rather than prohibited it publishes only with the labeling and placement restrictions our reviewers apply, and we may withdraw a permitted category if a partner requires it.

Escort services, prostitution, and in-person solicitation

Prohibited: advertising, arranging, or soliciting commercial sexual services or any in-person meeting for sexual purposes, in content, profiles, messages, titles, or descriptions, or by directing buyers off-site, including rate cards, tour announcements, and coded terminology.

Drug sales and other illegal transactions

Prohibited: offering or facilitating the sale of controlled substances, weapons, stolen goods, counterfeit items, or account credentials, and using the Site to launder proceeds or evade sanctions.

Personal information and doxxing

Prohibited: publishing another person's home or work address, telephone number, government identification number, financial account details, private communications, or anything intended to enable harassment or stalking.

Deepfakes and sexualized depictions of real people

Prohibited: sexualized synthetic or manipulated depictions of a real, identifiable person made without their documented consent, including face swaps, voice cloning, and generated likenesses. Where used with everyone's documented consent, the description must disclose it.

Copyright and trademark infringement

Prohibited: uploading content the creator does not own or have rights to distribute, including studio footage, another creator's clips, or material from other platforms, and using another party's trademarks to suggest an affiliation that does not exist. Rights holders should use DMCA; repeat infringement results in termination.

Any content that violates applicable law

Prohibited: content whose production, distribution, or sale would violate federal law, Wyoming law, or any other applicable law. Legality elsewhere is not a defence, and neither is similar content on another platform.

6. Titles, tags, descriptions, and thumbnails

Metadata is reviewed as seriously as footage. Titles, tags, descriptions, filenames, and thumbnails may not imply that a performer is a minor, may not assert or imply a genuine lack of consent, and may not present performers as real blood relatives. These rules apply even where the footage is fully compliant and every performer verified: a compliant clip with a violating title is a violation, and the fix is a metadata change. Metadata must describe what the buyer receives accurately, and thumbnails must come from the content sold.

7. Review timelines

The clock starts when a submission is complete, meaning the file has passed technical checks and all performer documentation is on file; incomplete documentation pauses it. Priority-tier abuse reports jump the whole queue.

Target handling times, not guarantees.
QueueTargetNotes
Standard pre-publication review24 to 72 hours from a complete submissionClock pauses while documentation is incomplete.
Acknowledgement of any abuse report24 hoursAny source, named or anonymous.
Content reported as depicting a minor or as non-consensualRemoved from public view immediately on receiptProvisional removal precedes review. This is deliberate.
Determination, priority reports72 hoursReviewed ahead of all other queues.
Determination, other reports7 business daysHarassment, doxxing, mislabeling, spam, fraud.
Copyright noticesAs stated at /dmcaCounter-notice timelines are set out there.

8. Post-publication monitoring and enforcement

Approval is not permanent. We re-review published content when it is reported; when a performer withdraws consent; when documentation expires, changes, or is withdrawn; when control of an account changes; when a near-duplicate of removed content is detected; when a payment or payout partner raises a category concern; and when this policy changes in a way that affects approved material. Re-review can end in removal, required metadata changes, or a new restriction.

User reports enter the same queue as pre-publication review, at the priority tier set out in the Anti-Trafficking policy. A report need not come from a depicted person, and anonymous reports are accepted and acted on.

Enforcement ladder. Steps may be skipped upward for severity or repetition.
StepActionTypical trigger
1Warning and required correctionFirst minor metadata or labeling violation. Content may be de-listed until corrected.
2Content removal or de-listingContent correction cannot fix; a repeated step 1 violation; a restricted category published without restrictions.
3Monetization holdA pattern across a catalogue; lapsed documentation; investigation of a non-zero-tolerance report. Payouts are held.
4Temporary suspensionSerious or repeated violations; refusal to correct; obstruction of review. Uploading is disabled and the catalogue de-listed.
5Permanent termination and payout holdSevere violation, sustained pattern, or repeat conduct after suspension. Accounts closed, catalogue removed, pending payouts held.

The ladder does not apply to the zero-tolerance categories. For the six zero-tolerance categories in section 5 there is no warning and no graduated step: the first and only step is immediate removal and permanent termination, with law enforcement referral and a CyberTipline report where a minor appears involved.

9. Appeals

A creator whose content was rejected, removed, restricted, or de-listed, or whose account received a monetization hold, suspension, or termination, may appeal by emailing [email protected] with APPEAL at the start of the subject line, within 30 days of our notice. An appeal should identify the content or account and the action taken, state why the decision was wrong, and include any documentation unavailable at the time.

Where practicable a reviewer other than the original decision-maker handles the appeal, and we aim to decide within 7 business days of a complete appeal, stating the reason. One appeal is available per action; a second on the same facts is acknowledged but not re-decided. No appeal is available where content was determined to be child sexual abuse material, where the determination followed a law enforcement referral or legal process, or where a person depicted in the content has withdrawn consent.

10. Transparency and record-keeping

For each submission and enforcement action we record the decision, reviewer identifier, date and time, the provision relied on, any restriction, and the supporting documentation. Age and consent records are retained under our 18 U.S.C. §2257 statement, material that must be preserved for law enforcement is preserved rather than deleted, and personal data handling is described in our Privacy Policy.

We may publish periodic summary figures on submissions, rejections, reports, and enforcement actions. We do not publish such a report today, and we claim no external audit, certification, or trade-association membership.

11. Changes to this policy

We update this policy as law, payment partner requirements, or our own practice change; the date at the top reflects the current version. Material changes affecting creators are sent to the account contact address on file. This policy is governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, and the Terms of Use apply in addition.
