Pursuant to U.S. law 18 U.S.C. Section 2257 (the Child Protection and Obscenity Enforcement Act of 1988) and comparable international legislation, every individual appearing on oovoo.com, or on any platform or service referenced by or linked from oovoo.com, is, to the best of our knowledge, at least 18 years of age. Access to oovoo.com is restricted to adults aged 18 and over, as provided in our Terms of Service.
How the ooVoo Service Operates
oovoo.com is a live random video chat platform that runs on software developed and operated by us. It connects two users at a time for real-time, unrecorded conversations. ooVoo does not create, commission, script, direct, or publish visual content of any kind within the meaning of 18 U.S.C. Section 2257. We do not employ, contract, manage, or coordinate models or performers, and nothing transmitted through the platform is produced by ooVoo or on its behalf.
As ooVoo is not a producer of actual or simulated sexually explicit conduct, the record-keeping obligations of 18 U.S.C. Section 2257 do not attach to the operation of this service.
Age Requirement and User Conduct
Every user of oovoo.com must be 18 years of age or older, and by using the service each user confirms that this is the case. Nudity, sexually explicit conduct, and obscene or unlawful behavior are forbidden on the platform. Users who breach these rules may be blocked or permanently banned, and unlawful activity will be reported to the relevant authorities where the law requires it.
External Platforms and Affiliate Relationships
oovoo.com may reference, display, or link to webcam and chat platforms operated by third parties. ooVoo does not own, operate, or exercise control over any of these external services. Our involvement is limited to publishing information, reviews, and affiliate links.
Responsibility for compliance with 18 U.S.C. Section 2257, including every record-keeping, documentation, and age-verification obligation it imposes, rests entirely with the operators of those third-party services. All performances, uploads, and interactive content on external platforms are controlled solely by their respective operators. A user who signs up for or takes part in a third-party service reached through a link on oovoo.com does so directly with that third party, independently and without any participation by ooVoo or its personnel.
Moderation and Content Standards
ooVoo does not endorse or promote obscene or unlawful content, whether within our own service or on any external platform. We apply moderation standards on our own platform and reserve the right to remove, or refuse to reference, any external material that we consider, in our sole discretion, obscene, defamatory, or otherwise unsuitable.
Content We Publish Ourselves
Material published directly by ooVoo or its representatives, such as blog articles, guides, and reviews, is informational only and contains nothing erotic or pornographic. This material therefore falls outside the record-keeping requirements of 18 U.S.C. Section 2257.
Records and Inquiries
ooVoo does not collect, hold, or maintain records under 18 U.S.C. Section 2257, because it does not produce content to which that regulation applies. Where such records exist in relation to third-party platforms linked from this website, they are kept by the operators of those platforms, and any questions about their compliance or age-verification procedures should be addressed to those operators directly.
Questions about this statement, or about the ooVoo platform itself, can be sent to us via the details on our contact page.
