Safety and directory standards
Velvet List is an 18+ directory. Profile images are non-nude; gallery images may include nudity and are blurred until a viewer verifies their age; a listing or review status is not an endorsement of content.
Directory listings
Only staff-approved profiles are published. Public pages distinguish source review, reviewed platform links and account-control checks. None establishes legal identity, age, consent, image rights, platform verification or endorsement. Unsupported facts stay absent rather than being inferred.
Images
Profile images must be non-nude; a profile image with nudity is rejected at moderation. The gallery is the only place nudity can be approved: a creator who has passed a Didit ID and liveness check may add gallery images of themselves alone, which may include nudity. Sexual activity, genital-focused imagery, other people and anything suggesting a person under 18 are prohibited. Every gallery image, including one used as a search-card background, is moderated before display and shown blurred to anyone who has not verified they are 18 or over.
Signed-in members can report any image. A report that someone may be under 18 or did not consent hides the image immediately until a moderator reviews it.
Reviews
Members may submit one respectful review per creator. New and edited reviews are moderated before publication. Ratings appear only after enough approved reviews to provide useful context.
Claims and corrections
Creators may submit structured evidence to claim a listing or request a correction. Approval grants limited profile-management capability, never platform administration access or ownership of directory records.
Reports, takedowns and appeals
Anyone can send a private safety report, takedown request or appeal without an account. It enters the protected staff moderation queue for reasoned resolution. Our team aims to triage reports within one working day.
Privacy
Account data is available privately in the account area. Deletion removes saved creators and anonymises the account record; limited review records may remain only for moderation audit purposes.
