3. AI-Powered Content Moderation

3.1 How Our AI Safety System Works

To maintain a safe environment during video chats, we use cutting-edge AI technology that:

• Processes video locally: AI models run entirely in your browser using TensorFlow.js
• Analyzes frames in real-time: Content is checked every 2 seconds during active video chats
• Uses multiple detection methods: AI models, computer vision algorithms, and heuristic analysis
• Provides immediate protection: Automatic warnings, video blur, and safety measures
• Never stores video: No frames, images, or visual content leaves your device

3.2 Technical Implementation

Our AI system uses:

• MobileNet v2: Industry-standard image classification model
• Custom algorithms: Specialized detection for inappropriate content
• Browser-based processing: Everything runs locally using WebGL acceleration
• Progressive enforcement: Warning system before any actions are taken
• Adaptive performance: System adjusts based on your device capabilities

3.3 What Triggers AI Analysis

The AI system activates when:

• You are in an active video chat with another user
• Your camera is enabled and video is being transmitted
• Both users have consented to video chat features

The system does NOT analyze:

• Video when you're not in a chat
• Audio content (voice conversations)
• Background or unintentional content
• Any content when video chat is not active

3.4 Biometric Data Processing

• Local processing only: All biometric analysis occurs on your device
• No biometric storage: No biometric identifiers or templates are created or stored
• Temporary analysis: Processing stops immediately when video chat ends
• No identification: System detects content types, not individual identity
• Consent-based: Using video chat features constitutes consent to this processing

3.5 AI Moderation Actions

When inappropriate content is detected, the system may:

• Display warnings: Pop-up notifications about content policy
• Apply video blur: Temporary censoring of video stream
• Issue temporary suspensions: Brief timeouts from video features (10 minutes)
• Log violation metadata: Record detection events for safety tracking
• Allow appeals: Process to review moderation decisions

3.6 Your AI Moderation Rights

• Transparency: Clear notifications when violations are detected
• Appeal process: Contact us to dispute moderation decisions
• Data access: Request your AI moderation history
• Consent withdrawal: Stop using video features to avoid AI analysis
• Technical information: Learn about the AI models and algorithms used

4. Video Chat, WebRTC, and Privacy Protection

Our video chat feature combines WebRTC technology with AI-powered safety measures while maintaining complete privacy:

• Peer-to-peer encryption: Video streams are directly encrypted between users
• Local AI processing: Safety analysis happens entirely in your browser
• No server storage: Video content never reaches or is stored on our servers
• Real-time protection: AI safety system provides immediate content moderation
• Metadata only: We only store connection logs (who, when, duration) not content
• Automatic deletion: All session data is automatically cleaned up

4.1 What We Store vs. What We Don't Store

We DO store:

• Connection metadata (who connected, when, for how long)
• AI safety alerts (violation types, not content)
• User actions (next, stop, report buttons clicked)

We DO NOT store:

• Video frames or images from your camera
• Audio content or voice recordings
• Screenshots or captures of video chats
• Facial recognition data or biometric identifiers
• Any visual content processed by our AI system

5. Data Storage and Retention

5.1 Content Expiration
