Our Risk Assessment
We continually assess modern slavery and human trafficking risks in our business environment through identifying and analyzing higher-risk areas of our business. Our assessment is based on external reports and standards, and country and sector risk profiles, and we adjust our processes and controls, as appropriate, based on changing risks.
Our Direct Business Operations
We consider the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking to be relatively low in our direct business operations, as our direct users and contributors are largely comprised of professionally qualified or skilled personnel.
Our Platform and Supply Chain
As with all social media platforms, there are risks related to creators’ content, including the risk of material being uploaded that is exploitative, and in breach of various laws and our policies.
Our Risk Mitigation Efforts
We have continued to work to mitigate risks identified in our previous modern slavery and human trafficking statements and we are committed to report on key points of action that we intend to take going forward.
We carefully check all identity and payment details for each creator account application to ensure that individuals can only make an account on their own behalf. We specifically check for any discrepancies between identity documents and the legal name provided on payment methods, and employ technological safeguards to prevent creator payment details from being changed by the user. This is to ensure the creator is receiving payments directly. In certain high-risk jurisdictions, or where an account has been flagged for additional security after our initial verification process has been completed, we require an additional "selfie" identification process to log into a creator account at specific intervals (which can include every log in).
Content Moderation
In order to prevent and detect harm, we monitor all media uploaded to the platform and remove, and report where necessary, any content that facilitates or coordinates the exploitation of people, including modern slavery and human trafficking. We have continued to enhance the depth and sophistication of our content moderation to ensure compliance with our Terms of Service and Acceptable Use Policy. All our content moderators are trained to identify and swiftly report any suspected modern slavery including trafficking. Before content can appear on a newsfeed, we inspect it with state-of-the-art digital technologies to check whether the content is allowed on the platform. All content which attempted to be uploaded to More Fans is moderated by trained staff within 24 hours to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking. Our trained moderators identify, and immediately escalate, any content which they suspect may be an indicator of modern slavery or human trafficking. We can review and remove any image or video shared on More Fans at any time, including in all direct messages.
Community Reporting
We continued to expand our support functions to deal with any concerns or complaints from our users and from the wider community. Each post and account on More Fans provides a report button. Any reports escalated from our platform are reviewed internally by our moderators. In addition, we encourage anyone on More Fans that indicates that someone is in physical danger relating to human trafficking to immediately report the content to us at creator@morefans.app. In turn we will perform a content and account review. If a reported concern is substantiated, corrective action will be taken, up to and including, account termination.
More Fans Reporting Mechanisms
More Fans cultivates a community of transparency, honesty, and accountability, which encourages our creators and users to report any concerns, including human rights violations, modern slavery, and human trafficking.
