Distributing Adult Content to Minors – CREPE Help Center

CREPE discourages indiscriminate exposure of adult content and obscene material, clearly distinguishing between the two.

✔️ When posting adult content, always set the adult content toggle to ON in order to prevent exposure to minors.

✔️ Posting or selling obscene material is strictly prohibited regardless of adult content labeling.

CREPE defines adult content and obscene material as follows:

Please be aware that sanctions will be imposed for related violations.

Adult Content

Exposure of a significant portion of the body
Exposure of genitalia (all exposure of genitalia, including cases where specific shape and outline are not discernible)
Any depictions above acceptable content in media rated for all ages (light kissing while clothed - Video Game Rating Board) including sexual contact, sexual acts, or suggestive poses which are sexually suggestive or obscene and may stimulate sexual desire in minors
Excessive use of explicit sexual dialogue, obscene language, vulgar terms, or profanity
Excessive violence depicted in a detailed, direct, and explicit manner

Antisocial or unethical content that may hinder the development of minors' character and civic awareness
Content that realistically and specifically depicts means and methods of suicide, school violence, bullying, juvenile delinquency, criminal techniques, and illegal acts
Other content that clearly risks harming minors' mental or physical health
Content that significantly jeopardizes minors' healthy lifestyles, such as promoting gambling and speculative activities
Links or files that provide direct access to the above content without verifying the user's age or identity

Obscene Material

As current laws lack clear standards for defining pornographic material, CREPE cannot serve as the definitive authority for such determinations. However, to ensure safe commission activity and user protection, we apply the following guidelines based on case law, current legislation, and regulations set by relevant authorities:

Descriptions constituting obscene material

Information and Communications Deliberation Regulations and acts generally unacceptable by social standards
Explicit depictions of sexual organs or acts without separate mosaic blurring (beyond obscuring outlines)
Other cases deemed to require urgent action due to violations of related laws and regulations
