Child safety standards
Last updated: 3 November 2026
ACHALAM, developed and published by Xanchor Capital Technologies, has zero tolerance for child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE) and child sexual abuse material (CSAM). This page sets out our standards and how we act on them.
1. Who can use the app
Accounts are only for adults aged 18 or over. Children never get their own account or chat access; a parent may add a child's basic details (name and year of birth) to the family section, which only that family and the samaj office can see. The Learn Gujarati section is used by a parent on the parent's own phone.
2. What is not allowed
- Any content that sexualises minors, including images, videos, text or links.
- Grooming, contacting or soliciting minors, or any attempt to exploit a child.
- Sharing, requesting or linking to child sexual abuse material.
Breaking these rules leads to immediate removal of the content and permanent blocking of the account.
3. How members report
Every chat message, Samaj corner post and ad has a Report option in the app. Reports go to the samaj office admins, who review them and can remove content and block accounts at once. Anyone can also write to us directly at [email protected].
4. How we act
- Reported content is reviewed promptly; CSAE content is removed as soon as we know of it and the account is blocked.
- We preserve the relevant information and report CSAM to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and to the Indian authorities (the National Cybercrime Reporting Portal, cybercrime.gov.in, and the police), as required by law.
- We cooperate with law enforcement requests made under applicable law.
5. Compliance with law
We comply with child safety laws that apply to us, including the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, 2012 and the Information Technology Act, 2000 of India.
