WHIF Content and Copyright Policy

Content Moderation Policy

1. Guiding Principles

WHIF is a platform where creativity flourishes. We believe that empowering creators to express themselves freely is essential for a vibrant community. We are committed to upholding freedom of expression and minimizing restrictions on imagination, whether in character images or text-based content.

However, this freedom must be balanced with our responsibility to protect minors and respect the rights of all users. Therefore, we have implemented age verification procedures and content safety measures to prevent the posting of harmful content, ensuring a safe and positive environment for everyone.

Our content rating standards are based on globally recognized principles of content safety, tailored for a primarily text-based service which has a different context than video or audio content. We will continue to evolve these standards flexibly, referencing best practices from AI character chat platforms and similar genres.

1-1. Content Rating Guidelines

The following table outlines our content classification system:

Rating	Nudity / Exposure	Sexual Acts	Violence	Language
Level 4	Genital nudity	Depictions of sexual crimes or explicit sexual acts	Brutal murder	Explicit and obscene profanity
Level 3	Full-body nudity	Non-explicit sexual acts	Murder	Strong profanity
Level 2	Partial nudity	Sexual contact while clothed	Injury / Harm	Harsh profanity
Level 1	Revealing scenes	Passionate kissing	Fighting	Everyday profanity
Level 0	No nudity	No sexual acts	No violence	No profanity

•

Red (Level 4): Classified as 'Inappropriate Content' → Strictly Prohibited.

•

Yellow (Levels 2-3): Classified as 'Mature Content' (Unsafe) → Accessible only to age-verified adult users. May be classified as Inappropriate (Black) depending on the specific context.

•

Green (Levels 0-1): Classified as 'General Content' (Safe) → Generally Permitted.
