Child Sexual Exploitation and Abuse
At WAX, we maintain a steadfast stance against any form of child sexual exploitation and abuse. Our commitment to the safety and well-being of children is unwavering. We absolutely do not tolerate any content that sexualizes or poses a threat to children, whether they are real individuals or fictional characters (e.g., anime, media, text, illustrations, or digital images). This encompasses any visual representations or discussions involving sexually explicit conduct concerning a child.
For the purposes of this policy, a child is defined as an individual under the age of 18. It is strictly prohibited to upload, store, create, share, or encourage others to share any content related to child sexual abuse, even if the intention is to express concern or raise awareness on this critical issue.
We believe in providing a secure and responsible environment for our members, and safeguarding the welfare of children is paramount to achieving that goal. If you come across any content that violates these principles, please report it immediately so that we can take appropriate action. Your commitment to ensuring the safety of our community is greatly appreciated.
Safety Reporting
Safety is our utmost priority at WAX. To maintain a secure environment, we employ a combination of human moderators and automated systems. These systems work diligently to monitor and assess WAX accounts and interactions for content that may contravene our Community Guidelines, Terms and Conditions, or pose a potential threat to our community's well-being.
Our members are integral to the safety of WAX. We actively encourage you to report and block any content or behavior that you believe may violate our Community Guidelines and make you feel uncomfortable or unsafe. Taking this action is crucial in upholding our shared commitment to creating a secure and respectful space for all. For more information on the reporting process, you can refer to this article.
However, it's essential to keep in mind that differences of opinion or personal preferences regarding a member or their content may not necessarily warrant reporting. We take reports seriously and only act against a member when we have substantial evidence that they are intentionally generating false or inappropriate reports against others, particularly on the basis of their protected attributes. This includes unjustly reporting transgender or nonbinary members or repeatedly submitting unfounded reports of misbehavior.
Your cooperation in reporting genuine concerns while upholding our principles of respect and fairness is highly valued. Together, we can ensure a positive and secure experience for everyone in the WAX community.
Chargebacks
Please be aware that chargebacks can have a significant impact on our business operations and financial stability. In the event of a chargeback initiated without prior communication with us, WAX reserves the right to suspend or terminate services provided.
Our goal is to maintain a respectful and enjoyable community. If you have any concerns or questions, feel free to reach out to our support team. We're here to help!
Remember, following these community guidelines sets the stage for an amazing and enjoyable experience for all members. Take a moment to familiarize yourself with these guidelines, and let's create unforgettable moments together in the WAX community!
