1. Purpose
This Policy explains the rules for user-uploaded media, profile images, album images, and image attachments on Hush Local.
2. General Rule
Users may upload media subject to moderation, review, and the Terms of Service. Uploaded content must comply with applicable law and our platform policies.
3. User Ownership and Permission
By uploading media, you represent and warrant that:
- the content is yours to upload, or you have lawful authority to upload it;
- any identifiable person depicted has consented to the upload and sharing;
- the upload does not infringe copyright, privacy, publicity, or other rights;
- the content is not misleading, fraudulent, coercive, or unlawful.
4. Adult Images
Hush Local permits adult-oriented user uploads consistent with our moderation rules, provided the content is lawful and the person uploading the content has the right to do so. Images submitted for publication may be reviewed before being made live.
5. Prohibited Content
The following are prohibited:
- CSAM or any content involving minors;
- non-consensual intimate imagery;

6. Review Before Publication
Certain uploads may be reviewed manually or by automated tools before publication. We may approve, reject, quarantine, restrict, or remove content at our discretion.
7. Reporting and Takedown
Users may report media and may request review or takedown by using in-app reporting where available or by contacting support@hushlocal.com. We may preserve reported content, metadata, and related logs where necessary.
8. Private Media and Locked Albums
Private or locked media remains subject to platform rules, moderation, and legal review. Access controls do not prevent the company from enforcing policy, investigating abuse, or complying with legal requests.
9. Revocation and Copies
If access to private media is revoked, the platform may stop further access, but we cannot guarantee removal of copies already made by recipients or others who lawfully viewed the content.
10. Enforcement
We may remove uploads, suspend accounts, or preserve content for safety or legal reasons.
