- Permanent account termination

Responsibility and escalation
PinSpree's owner, AP, is personally responsible for safety reports. The following is the owner's required handling process, not a claim of a staffed moderation team or of previously completed cases.
- Review received reports about pins, plans, users, circles and guides; record the target, reason, relevant identifiers and action taken. Prioritize credible child-safety concerns and imminent threats.
- When actual knowledge of CSAM is obtained, remove or disable access to the material and take appropriate action on the responsible account. Preserve only the restricted evidence required for legal reporting or preservation; do not redistribute the material.
- Assess applicable reporting and preservation duties, obtain qualified guidance when needed, and make reports to NCMEC's CyberTipline or the relevant authority when legally required. This is a responsibility to carry out, not a statement that a report has already been filed.
- Document the outcome and any necessary follow-up, restrict access to report records, and review whether remaining content or accounts need action. Do not promise a response time that has not been established.
Where your app version provides a Report control, use it on the relevant content or profile and include a reason and identifying link or ID. Do not download or attach suspected CSAM. Reporting and blocking are different actions; use Block where available to restrict interactions. Availability of these controls depends on the app version and service rollout. PinSpree is not an emergency-response service: contact local emergency services for immediate danger.
