Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Life Diary ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our digital memory chain application.

3. Sensitive and Explicit Content Policy

Life Diary is designed for respectful, personal memory keeping. Do not upload nudity, sexually explicit or pornographic content, vulgar or obscene imagery, fetish content, or imagery designed for sexual arousal.

If in doubt, do not upload the content.

We also prohibit content that exploits or endangers anyone, depicts minors in sexualized contexts, promotes hate or violence, or violates applicable laws. You are responsible for ensuring your uploads comply with these rules. We may remove violating content or entire chains and may suspend or terminate accounts for repeated or severe violations.

If you encounter content that violates these rules, please report it via support. We will review and, where appropriate, remove the content and/or notify relevant authorities.
