Acceptable Use Policy
Version 2026-05-03
Aura is a platform for AI-generated adult content. We are deliberately strict about what we host because the alternative — hosting CSAM, non-consensual deepfakes, or trafficking content — is not survivable as a business or as a human enterprise. The rules below apply to everyone: viewers, creators, and any third parties interacting with the Service.
Hard prohibitions (zero tolerance)
Violations of these rules result in immediate, permanent termination, on-chain wallet denylist where applicable, and (for items 1 and 2) mandatory reporting to law enforcement under PROTECT Act, art. 202 bis CPF (Mexico), the Take It Down Act (US, 2025), Ley Olimpia (Mexico), and parallel statutes.
- Content depicting minors, in any form. This includes AI-generated content where the depicted character could reasonably be perceived as under 18 — even in fantasy, anime, or stylized art. Aura's posture is conservative: ambiguity is resolved against publication. There is no "art" exception. Reported to NCMEC and equivalent hotlines.
- Non-consensual intimate imagery of real, identifiable persons. AI deepfakes of real people without their documented written consent are categorically prohibited. This includes ex-partners, classmates, public figures, celebrities, neighbors, and anyone whose likeness can be recognized. Removed within 24 hours per Take It Down Act and Ley Olimpia. Repeat creator violations result in permanent ban and wallet denylist.
- Bestiality, necrophilia, simulated rape or torture as desirable, snuff content. AI-generated or otherwise.
- Trafficking in persons. Content that solicits, depicts, or facilitates trafficking, sex work involving coercion, or smuggling.
- Off-platform solicitation of minors using Aura as a contact vector.
- Promotion of illegal goods or services (controlled substances, weapons, fraud, malware, etc.).
- Doxxing, stalking, or threats of violence against any person, on or off the platform.
- Extreme content presented as desirable to minors (e.g., grooming themes), regardless of the age of the depicted character.
Restricted content (case-by-case review; pattern violations = ban)
- Content where the depicted character is not unambiguously over 18. Use clear adult markers: adult body proportions, mature face, contextual cues.
- Real-celebrity-resembling content without a creator-attested transformative-use claim. We may require evidence (e.g., explicit visual differences, parody framing).
- Public-figure satire that crosses into harassment or fabricated factual claims (e.g., presenting AI-generated content as a real photo).
- Content that may infringe third-party copyright or trademark. See our DMCA Policy.
- Content depicting violence in a sexualized context. Allowed if both depicted parties are adult and the activity reads as consensual; not allowed if it reads as non-consensual.
Expectations for creators
- Sign every consent record honestly. Each post requires you to attest (a) the content is fully AI-generated, (b) it depicts no real identifiable persons without consent, (c) it does not use celebrity likeness without consent, and (d) all depicted persons appear to be adults. False attestations are grounds for immediate ban and may carry criminal liability.
- Disclose your models and LoRAs. When publishing, list the models, LoRAs, and other training-relevant tools used. This is recorded as part of your consent record. Hidden use of celebrity-trained or under-18-trained models is a violation.
- Respond to subjects. If someone whose likeness appears in your content reaches out (directly or via takedown), cooperate fully. Removing their likeness on request is non-negotiable.
- Maintain real KYC. Submit valid government ID at onboarding and re-verify when requested (e.g., country change, three-year refresh, fraud signals).
- Don't evade. Creating new accounts after a ban, using friends' KYC, or deepfaking your own ID are grounds for permanent denylist.
Expectations for viewers / fans
- Be 18+ (or 21+ where required). Do not bypass age verification mechanisms.
- Don't harass creators. Aura is a workplace for them.
- Don't scrape or redistribute. Subscribed access is a personal license, not a redistribution license. Sharing screenshots or videos to other platforms violates the creator's license and AUP.
- Don't evade payment (e.g., chargeback fraud — though largely impossible on-chain — or impersonating a subscriber).
Reporting
See something that violates this policy?
- For violations of items 1 and 2 above (CSAM or non-consensual intimate imagery): file at /takedown. We respond within 24 hours. Anonymous reports accepted.
- For other violations: same form, with category "Other".
- For copyright infringement: see our DMCA Policy.
- For threats to life or safety: contact local emergency services first, then us.
Enforcement
Reports are triaged within 24 hours of submission per our SLA. Verified violations result in:
- Content removal (and propagation of the removal across replicas, caches, and CDN).
- Strike to the creator's account. Three verified strikes within 12 months result in permanent termination per our repeat-infringer policy.
- For items 1 and 2: immediate termination on first verified violation, plus mandatory reports.
- On-chain wallet denylist for the offending creator's payout address (so they cannot collect future payments under any account on Aura).
Appeals
If your content was removed or your account suspended in error, appeal at appeals@aura.app. Provide your handle, the date, and any evidence. We respond within 7 days. Good-faith appeals do not extend strike timers.
Changes
We may update this AUP. The current version is identified at the top of this page. Material changes (new prohibitions, changed enforcement levels) require re-acceptance.
