Protecting Children Online
Children's online safety is not a feature we added. It is a founding principle that shaped every decision we made when building Armor Studios. We believe the internet should be a safe place for everyone, especially those who are most vulnerable.
Age Requirement: 17+
All Armor Studios platforms require users to be at least 17 years of age. This is enforced at account creation and is non-negotiable.
Subscription-Only Access
Every account requires a verified payment method. There are no free accounts, no anonymous access, and no way for bad actors to hide behind disposable identities.
Zero Tolerance
Any content that exploits, endangers, or sexualizes minors results in immediate account termination, preservation of evidence, and reporting to the appropriate authorities.
Our Commitment
When we founded Armor Studios, we made a deliberate choice: we would not build a platform that could be exploited by those who harm children. Every architectural decision, every policy, and every feature was designed with this principle in mind.
We studied the failures of other platforms — how free accounts, anonymity, and negligent moderation created environments where predators operated unchecked. We chose a different path.
- Every user is verified through a paid subscription tied to a real identity
- All content on our platforms is subject to our acceptable use policy
- We actively monitor for and report child sexual abuse material (CSAM)
- We cooperate fully with law enforcement investigations
- Our abuse reporting team is reachable 24/7 at abuse@armorstudios.net
- We maintain detailed records to support investigations when required by law
Why We Require Subscriptions
Free platforms attract bad actors because there is no cost to creating a new account after being banned. Disposable accounts mean disposable accountability.
By requiring a subscription with a verified payment method, we create a meaningful barrier against those who would misuse our platform. Every account is tied to a real person, a real payment method, and a real identity. This is not a business decision — it is a safety decision.

"Protecting children online is not a policy we adopted. It is the reason we built Armor Studios the way we did. Every decision flows from this principle."
