Child Safety Standards

Last updated: August 8, 2026

Sealed (the "app") is published by the studio Ivryn (Victor Laybats). We have zero tolerance for child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE) and for child sexual abuse material (CSAM). These are our published standards for preventing, detecting and responding to such content and behaviour, in line with Google Play's Child Safety Standards policy and applicable law.

1. Prohibited content and conduct

The following are strictly forbidden on Sealed:

• Any child sexual abuse material (CSAM), or content that sexualises, exploits or endangers a minor.
• Grooming, solicitation, sextortion, or attempting to make contact with a minor for sexual purposes.
• Trafficking of, or advertising, any of the above.
• Any other content or behaviour that abuses, endangers or exploits children.

2. Who Sealed is for

Sealed is intended for users aged 13 and over (16+ where local law requires). It is not directed to children and is not designed for use by children under 13.

3. Reporting and removal

Anyone, user or not, can report suspected CSAE or CSAM connected to Sealed at contact@victorlaybats.com. We review reports promptly. The current app is local-only, has no user accounts and gives Ivryn no remote access to photos stored on a user’s phone, so we cannot inspect or remotely delete device-only content. If a future Sealed-operated service stores content or accounts, we will provide in-app reporting and blocking and will remove violating content or disable accounts where technically available.

4. Legal compliance and cooperation

We comply with applicable child-safety laws. Where we identify or are made aware of apparent CSAM, we act to remove it, preserve relevant information as required, and report it to the appropriate authorities and child-safety organisations (such as the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, NCMEC, and/or local law enforcement). We cooperate with lawful requests from authorities.

5. How the app is designed

Sealed is currently local-only: photos are captured from the camera and stay on the user's device. Capsules do not synchronise across phones and the app has no shared-content backend. These standards still govern use of the app and any later sharing a user chooses outside Sealed. Any future networked sharing feature will require appropriate moderation, reporting and enforcement controls before release.

6. Point of contact

Child-safety matters, including reports and questions about these standards, can be sent to our designated contact: contact@victorlaybats.com.
