Many members love expressing themselves by sharing photos and videos, and we want everyone to feel confident and safe doing so. Because SubmitOrNot.com allows adult content, we follow strict safety and content-compliance requirements that protect our members, our platform, and our community as a whole.
Why We Remove Photos That Appear Under the Age of 21
To keep our platform safe and legally compliant, any photo or video that shows someone who appears to be under the age of 21 is not allowed. This rule applies even if:
-
The image is actually you at a younger age
-
The image contains a younger version of someone who is now an adult
-
The photo is sentimental, nostalgic, or part of your personal story
Even though we understand the context, our moderation team must remove these images to ensure:
-
Compliance with adult-content regulations
-
Safety across the entire community
-
Prevention of any misunderstanding or misuse
-
Protection for you and all members
Why the Age Requirement Is 21+ Instead of 18+
SubmitOrNot.com offers erotic, kinky, intimate, and adult-themed features. Adult-content regulations and industry standards often require stricter age thresholds for platforms like ours. Using 21+ as the minimum “visual age” helps ensure:
-
Stronger legal protection
-
Clear separation from underage or borderline-underage content
-
Safer community boundaries
-
Higher trust and accountability across the platform
What to Do if One of Your Photos Was Removed
If we removed a photo from your profile because it appeared under 21, don’t worry — you did not do anything wrong.
You are welcome to:
-
Upload a recent photo that clearly shows you as an adult (21+)
-
Replace the removed image with another compliant picture
-
Contact us if you need help understanding what’s allowed
We aim to enforce our policies fairly and consistently, not to discourage you from expressing yourself.
How This Policy Protects You
This rule is in place to protect you, not punish you. By removing any content that might appear underage, we:
-
Reduce risks of misinterpretation
-
Ensure no one mistakes your profile for containing prohibited content
-
Keep your account safe from accidental violations
-
Maintain a healthy, protected space for all lifestyle communities — vanilla, kinky, BDSM, polyamorous, and more
Submitting a Safe, Compliant Photo
When uploading media, make sure that:
-
You look clearly 21 or older in the image
-
The content aligns with our Terms of Service
-
The photo represents who you are today
-
There are no minors or under-21 individuals in the background
If you are unsure whether a photo is acceptable, feel free to ask our Support Team for guidance.
