What You Need to Know as a Creator on Fanvue
At Fanvue, we support freedom of expression and creativity, but we also have a legal and moral responsibility to keep the platform safe, respectful, and compliant with international laws.
❗ What’s Not Allowed
Even if you’re over 18, you cannot create or post content that:
Uses baby voices, language, or captions that suggest you’re underage
Depicts yourself as a teenager, schoolgirl, or child-like character in a sexual context
Includes clothing, props, or scenarios (e.g. teddy bears, school uniforms, "homework punishment") that imply sexualised minor role-play
Suggests you are “young for your age,” “just turned 18,” or uses similar language that could be interpreted as fetishising minors
Apply AI filters or "baby face" filters to make yourself look younger than you are
🚨 Why This Is Illegal (Even If You’re 20+)
Laws in the UK, US, EU and Canada clearly state that content which depicts, simulates, or alludes to minors in sexual contexts is not just inappropriate, it is criminal:
📚 Legal Basis
UK: Protection of Children Act 1978 – bans “pseudo-photographs” (content that looks like a child, even if acted by an adult)
US: 18 U.S. Code § 2256 & PROTECT Act – bans realistic simulations of minors in explicit scenarios
EU & Canada: Similar prohibitions under child protection and anti-exploitation laws
Even pretending to be underage in a sexualised way is treated as a serious offence by law enforcement and payment processors.
💡 Reminder: Just Don’t Risk It
It’s never worth gambling with your safety, your brand, or your future. If your content could look like it’s sexualising someone underage, it doesn’t belong on Fanvue.
🛡️ We’re Here to Help
If you’re unsure whether something crosses the line, please reach out! We’re happy to review content and provide guidance before it gets published.
We’re so proud to have you as a creator and want to ensure your content thrives safely and sustainably. 💖
