Teen Chat Rules and Regulations

Welcome to Teen Chat. You're in the right place if you love engaging in a variety of discussions with other teenagers and older kids! To make your experience safe and enjoyable, please read the tips and rules below.

Age and Language Requirements:

• 13 - 19 only. Anyone not within this age range will be permanently banned, removed, and possibly reported to law enforcement. Do not joke about being under or overage.
• You must register for an account in order to access certain features. Guest users are limited in features.
• English only in main chat (use other languages in private messages).
• This website utilizes chat safety measures to prevent older users from contacting younger users in private messaging. This restriction is enabled by default. Users who do not meet our age guidelines will be removed from the website.

Respect and Behavior

• Be respectful - no hate speech, bullying, slurs, discrimination, or insults.
• Use the built-in Ignore feature if you encounter unpleasant users.
• No disruptive behavior: No spamming, trolling, excessive caps, or bullying.

Safety & Privacy

• The internet is not always a safe place. Be cautious and think twice before sharing personal information, as it can easily fall into the wrong hands.
• No doxing or posting other's private information. Even if they allow it, we do not.
• Generally speaking we do not allow VPNs/Proxy to access our chat rooms. Most of them are blocked by our internal systems. Your information is always kept safe and we only require limited information to participate. There is no need to use a VPN or Proxy. We will only share your information with law enforcement, if requested.
• No advertising or promoting socials, other websites, products, or any other services.
• No impersonating or exploiting minors - ever.
• Report violating chat messages using our in-chat reporting tools.
• Block all users you do not feel comfortable chatting with. Our system is very easy to use and blocking a user is just one click away.
• Personal information is strongly discouraged from being shared to others. We will either warn, kick or ban you for sharing personal identifying information to others. We do not allow the sharing of social media accounts.
• Do not follow any links or other social media accounts that may be posted to you in public or private chat. Many times these are automated bots designed to redirect you to another website or social media platform to either sell illegal goods/content or attempt to scam you through monetary means. Report them using our reporting tools.

Content Guidelines (User Generated Content)

• Keep content PG-13: No explicit sexual discussions, drug talk, or roleplaying.
• No nudity or explicit imagery in your profile or media uploads. Our software blocks such images through AI moderation and hashtag controls. If you do happen to see any nude content, please report it to us immediately for prompt removal and action against the individual sending them.
• Screenshots are okay - just don't use them to troll or bully.
• Avoid flashing/strobing, hate symbols, or attacking others with media.
• No offensive GIFs, memes, images, drawings or voice memos: Avoid anything violent, hateful, or sexually explicit.
• Don't use banned slurs or bring up sensitive topics like rape, self-harm, or suicide.
• We reserve the right to report any messages or other content you post, along with your personal information, to federal or local law enforcement and/or registered national agencies such as the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC)

Profiles and Usernames

• Keep usernames and profile content appropriate and readable.
• Don't change your username while muted.
• No under-13 images in your profile.
• Multiple accounts: No evading rules or actions by using extra accounts.
• This chat utilizes AI moderation to detect profile and background picture uploads. It is not 100% accurate and you may see some false positives or false negatives. We encourage our community in assisting to report profile pictures that violate our rules.

Discussion Topics

• Any topic is allowed as long as it does not violate any of the rules outlined on this page.
• Sensitive topics such as drug use, rape, self-harm, or suicide is strictly forbidden.
• Politics/Religion: Feel free to discuss but respect others and move the conversation to PMs, if asked by a moderator.

VIP Upgrade

• VIP status does not exempt users from rules. Mutes, kicks, and bans still apply.
• Illegal purchases of VIP or Gold (including making payment with someone elses bank card without their permission) will result in referal to law enforcement.
• The same above rules and guidelines apply for all VIP features including drawing, voice memo and audio call features.

Report Illegal Content and Other Rules Violations

• We staff human moderators to monitor user generated content.
• Our application automatically blocks illegal content (CSAM) and we will file reports to necessary law enforcement and/or child protection agencies, if necessary.
• This chat room has built in tools to report illegal content and rules violators directly to our moderators. Beside each message there will be 3 little dots. Click that in order to report the message. You can also report a profile by clicking the Flag icon on his/her profile.
• You can also report violations by directly contacting a moderator who is active in the chat room by private message. They will have a shield icon beside their name and will be at the top of userlist.
• If there are any signs of grooming attempts by other users, please report them using our reporting tools. Chat messages are automatically removed frequently by our systems for safety reasons.
• Groomers often try to move the conversation to another platform, such as social media, messaging apps, or private messaging systems, where it is easier for them to contact you directly and without supervision. For your safety, never share your social media accounts, personal phone number, email, or other private contact information with anyone you meet on this chat platform.
• Please keep all conversations on this site, where our rules and moderators can help protect you. We will not be responsible for any conversations or actions that take place outside our chat platform, as we cannot monitor or enforce our rules on other websites, apps, or private messaging services. If someone pressures you to move the conversation off‑site or asks for personal information, report them immediately using our reporting tools.

Rules Enforcement

• Repeat offenders of even minor infractions will also be banned.
• All moderator directions must be followed.
• Harassment of moderators will not be tolerated.
