Safety at Aura
Last updated: 2026-05-03
Aura is the only adult platform we know of that is structurally synthetic — every piece of content is required to be AI-generated. That gives us a different safety posture than camera-based platforms, but it doesn't make us hands-off. Here's how we operate.
Pre-publication
- Every uploading creator passes identity verification (Yoti) and signs an AI-attestation, no-real-persons attestation, and no-minors attestation per upload.
- Every asset is scanned against known-CSAM hash databases (Thorn Safer + PhotoDNA) before publication. Anything flagged is blocked, the creator is suspended, and the case is referred to NCMEC.
- Posts the scanner is uncertain about go to manual review before they appear publicly.
Post-publication
- Anyone can report a piece of content at /report. We open a ticket with a 24-hour SLA — even the reporter doesn't need an Aura account.
- Take It Down Act compliance: we remove non-consensual intimate imagery within 24 hours. Subjects can request takedown without payment or paperwork at /takedown.
- Creators with repeat verified violations are permanently banned and their on-chain payout wallet is denylisted across the platform.
For viewers
- Viewers under 18 are blocked at the door (age gate + ID-based verification in regulated jurisdictions).
- Wallet addresses are pseudonymous. We don't share your address with third-party advertisers.
- Block creators or hide content from your feed at any time.
For creators
- We protect your earnings: CCBill chargebacks killed a generation of adult creators. Crypto txs are final.
- Stalking-by-fan is a real problem. Set a monthly cap on tips, mute keywords, block wallets — all coming in v0.6.
- KYC data is encrypted at rest and never shared. We share with Yoti for re-verification only.
