Content policy
This policy is part of the terms. It applies to what you type, what the writer produces for you, what you publish, and the pictures you ask for.
What this site is for
Everbranch hosts adult-oriented fiction that is not pornographic. Branches may be romantic, sensual, emotionally intense and adult in tone. Sexual situations may be implied or approached, and are not depicted graphically. There is no explicit tier, and there will not be one.
Two ratings
General: no sexual content. Mature: adult in tone, sensual, emotionally intense, with sexual situations handled with restraint rather than description. A seed’s rating is inherited by any branch published from it. You can set your own account to hide everything rated mature.
What is never allowed
- Sexual or romantic content involving anyone under 18, in any framing. This includes characters stated or implied to be children or adolescents, “aged-up” devices, childlike presentation in a sexual context, and any code or euphemism aiming at the same result. There is no fiction exception and no artistic merit exception.
- Sexual content depicting real, identifiable people.
- Sexual content involving animals.
- Content that could help someone cause real-world harm.
- Attempts to talk the system out of any of the above.
How this is enforced
Every character in every seed must have a stated age of 18 or over. That is checked in code, and a seed that fails is rejected outright rather than flagged.
What you type is screened against a fixed list of prohibited terms before it reaches a writer, and what comes back is screened before it reaches you. That screening is deliberately narrow: it refuses what the list catches and nothing else. Beyond it, each model provider applies its own policy and will decline work it will not do. Blocked generations are never charged for.
No account is suspended or closed automatically. A refusal is recorded and shown to a human, who decides whether it was somebody probing the rules or a filter having a bad day. Accounts are suspended and closed by a person, after looking. Where we are legally required to report something, we do, and we keep the records needed to do so.
Age
You confirm you are 18 or over when you sign up, and that confirmation is stored with its date. We do not collect dates of birth or identity documents.
Reporting
Every published branch and seed can be reported from its own page. Reports go to a queue a person reads. Content removed after a report returns a “this has been taken down” page rather than vanishing silently, so anybody holding a link knows what happened. You can also write to hello@everbranch.ink.
