Child Safety Standards

Last updated: 15 October 2026

Waloo has zero tolerance for child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE), including child sexual abuse material (CSAM), grooming, sextortion and any sexualisation of minors.

Our standards

• Any content or behaviour that sexualises, exploits or endangers children is forbidden. See our Community Rules.
• Waloo is not intended for children under 13. Accounts of children under 13 are deleted when we learn about them.
• Contacts must accept a request before anyone can chat with or call them directly. Strangers cannot start a private chat.
• Every photo and video is checked on the phone for nudity and sexual content before it is sent or posted, and is refused if detected.
• Feed posts can be limited to contacts only.

How to report

1. In the app: long-press the message and choose "Report message", or open the ⋯ menu on a post and choose "Report post". Then block the person.
2. By email: write to support@gabacloud.com with the subject "Child safety report", the person's Waloo name, and what happened. Please do not attach illegal images.
3. If a child is in immediate danger, contact your local police first.

What we do

• Child safety reports are reviewed with the highest priority.
• Offending content is removed and offending accounts are permanently banned.
• We report confirmed child sexual abuse material to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and cooperate with law enforcement as required by law, including Ethiopian authorities.
