2 Interactive services

We may from time to time provide interactive services on our site, including, without limitation:

Video-sharing facilities.
Private chat features.

(interactive services.)

Where we do provide any interactive service, we will provide clear information to you about the kind of service offered, if it is moderated and what form of moderation is used (including whether it is human or technical).

We will do our best to assess any possible risks for users (and in particular, for children) from third parties when they use any interactive service provided on our site, and we will decide in each case whether it is appropriate to use moderation of the relevant service (including what kind of moderation to use) in the light of those risks. However, we are under no obligation to oversee, monitor or moderate any interactive service we provide on our site, and we expressly exclude our liability for any loss or damage arising from the use of any interactive service by a user in contravention of our content standards, whether the service is moderated or not.

The use of any of our interactive services by a minor is subject to the consent of their parent or guardian. We advise parents who permit their children to use an interactive service that it is important that they communicate with their children about their safety online, as moderation is not fool proof. Minors who are using any interactive service should be made aware of the potential risks to them.

Where we do moderate an interactive service, we will normally provide you with a means of contacting the moderator, should a concern or difficulty arise.

We do not store terrorist content.

6 Freyja Content Guidelines

Guidelines are essentially our in-house rules. When a User signs up to Freyja, they are agreeing to these rules. Our guidelines are what enables us to keep our Users safe, and we all know that safety is sexy!

a) So, what exactly are our guidelines?

Freyja guidelines are based on 4 overarching questions:

Is the Content on the Red or Amber list?
Does the Content shown cause temporary or permanent harm or injury?
Is it illegal?
Are any performers depicted that have not given consent via the Freyja platform?

If the answer to any of those is yes, then the Content cannot be uploaded to Freyja.

b) The Red and Amber List

The Red list shows acts and themes which fall within Freyja's zero-tolerance policy towards illegal and harmful Content. All Red list items fall under the category of “illegal and harmful”, which is why, if such Content is uploaded or used on the Freyja platform, it will lead to a User's immediate removal from the Freyja platform.

The Amber list contains items that we deem harmful, or which falls into a grey area. If a User uploads Content that falls into this list, they will not be able to sell that Content and will receive a strike against their account. If a User receives more than three strikes, their status on the Freyja platform will be reviewed. All strikes can be appealed, and you can also discuss your strikes with our User board if you feel that you were unfairly given a strike. Below you can see what is on our Red and Amber list guidelines.

Red list acts/themes:

Advanced Weaponry

Amber list acts/themes:

Amber list acts/themes/plot lines can fall into a grey area. Therefore, they do not lead to an outright ban from the Freyja platform, but will result in a strike/warning, and will not be allowed to be uploaded. As a User you can always appeal any strikes.

Breastfeeding a person (this is separate from lactation in solo content only)
Content containing a priest, or religious authority figure.

Vomiting

c) How do we decide these guidelines?

Red list acts/themes are easy to decide, as these are based on what is illegal or a health risk. This is quite straightforward when it comes to banned sexual acts. The difficulty can arise when red list acts are themes for a plot line, as some may argue it is not directly illegal or harmful as it is a work of fiction and not ‘real’. Freyja believes that these types of plot lines are at the very least potentially damaging, and so we have decided on a zero-tolerance policy on not just certain harmful/illegal sexual acts but also plot lines that infer something is illegal/harmful.

The Amber list acts/themes can be more challenging to determine. These are plot lines or sexual acts, that are not outright illegal but cover a grey area. Therefore, we will flag them, and need to review/have a discussion with our User moderation team on them. When it comes to Content on the Amber area list, we always ask ourselves: what is the moral ramification of this Content? We as a platform are constantly evolving and pushing for higher standards. So, if you think we’ve missed an important guideline or have a suggestion please let us know by emailing: info@projektfreyja.com.

The Red and Amber lists should be deemed to include all translations and interpretations of the acts/themes listed therein.

These lists are constantly evolving. As such, Users should regularly check for updates on the Red and Amber lists in order to ensure that you do not fall foul of the rules.
