OnlyFans is looking to put a cap on pornography content on the platform.
In a report from Bloomberg, it has been confirmed that the subscription-based app are working towards being a prohibiting creators to post sexually explicit material.
According to a statement from company, creators will still be able to post nude content however it must comply with the OnlyFans policy.
A statement from the company reads, “In order to ensure the long-term sustainability of our platform, and the continue to host an inclusive community of creators and fans, we must evolve our content guidelines.”
OnlyFans says creators will still be allowed to post nude photos and videos “as long as it is consistent with our Acceptable Use Policy.” It’s not clear what OnlyFans considers the line between “nude photos and videos” and “sexually explicit content,” but the company promises to share “more details in the coming days.”
“OnlyFans remains committed to the highest levels of safety and content moderation of any social platform,” the company added. “All creators are verified prior to being able to upload any content to OnlyFans, and all uploaded content is checked by automated systems and human moderators.”
While the details on this new change are still largely vague, at this stage it remains unclear what the platform will deem as not sexually explicit in the area of nude content.
What we do know is that the change to policy is being brought about from rising pressure from banking partners and payment providers of the company.
Right now OnlyFans are looking to raise $1 billion from investors. The updated policy is reportedly set to be implemented starting in October.
