LockimateContent Policy
This Content Policy explains what you may and may not create, upload, or animate with the Lockimate app and website (the “Service”). It is part of, and incorporated into, our Terms of Service. By using the Service you agree to follow this Policy. We enforce it with zero tolerance: content that breaks these rules is blocked or removed, the responsible device or account may be permanently banned, and serious violations are reported to the appropriate authorities.
What Lockimate is — and is not
Lockimate turns a photo you provide into a short, animated Live Photo for your iPhone lock screen. Lockimate is not a “nudifier,” “undressing,” face-swap, or deepfake tool, and must never be used as one. It may be used only to animate images you are allowed to use and that comply with this Policy.
Content that is never allowed
You must not upload, create, or attempt to animate any content in the categories below. This list is not exhaustive; we may act on anything we reasonably consider harmful, unlawful, or objectionable.
1. Child sexual abuse and endangerment (CSAM)
We have absolute zero tolerance for any content that sexualizes, endangers, or exploits a minor (a person under 18) — real, AI-generated, cartoon, or otherwise fictional, and including the sexualized animation of an otherwise innocent image of a child. This content is illegal everywhere. We screen for known abuse material, block it, preserve the relevant information, and report it to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and/or the competent law-enforcement authorities as required by law. Never use Lockimate to upload, create, or solicit this content under any circumstances.
2. Non-consensual and intimate imagery
No content depicting an identifiable real person without their consent — in particular any sexual, nude, intimate, suggestive, or otherwise compromising depiction, and any “deepfake” or manipulated media intended to deceive, defame, harass, or impersonate. You must have each depicted person’s consent (and a parent’s or guardian’s consent for anyone under the age of majority).
3. Adult sexual content and nudity
No pornography, sexually explicit content, or graphic nudity, and no content primarily intended to cause sexual arousal.
4. Violence, gore, and weapons
No graphic violence, gore, or mutilation, no imagery glorifying or threatening violence, and no content promoting the use of weapons to harm people.
5. Hate, harassment, and extremism
No content that attacks, dehumanizes, harasses, or incites hatred or violence against people based on race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, disability, sex, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, or any other protected characteristic, and no terrorist or violent-extremist content or symbols.
6. Self-harm and dangerous acts
No content that promotes, glorifies, or instructs suicide, self-harm, eating disorders, or other seriously dangerous acts.
7. Illegal, infringing, and deceptive content
No content that is otherwise unlawful; that infringes copyright, trademark, privacy, or publicity rights; that depicts illegal drugs or activity; or that impersonates a person or organization or is designed to defraud or mislead.
You must have the rights
You may animate only images you own or are otherwise authorized to use. Before each generation you confirm, in the app, that you have the necessary rights and that the image complies with this Policy. You are solely responsible for the content you submit and for how you use the results.
How we enforce this Policy
- Automated screening. Before an image is processed, automated systems screen it for sexual, explicit, violent, and otherwise objectionable content, and our AI processing provider performs additional checks, including hash-matching against known child sexual abuse material.
- Per-image attestation. Each generation requires you to affirm that you hold the rights and that the content complies with this Policy.
- Review and action. We may review reported or flagged content and remove it, block the offending image, and suspend or permanently ban the device or account responsible.
- Reporting to authorities. Where the law requires, or where there is a risk to a person’s safety, we report content and related information to the appropriate authorities (for child sexual abuse material, to NCMEC and/or law enforcement).
Reporting a violation
If you encounter content or behavior that violates this Policy, report it immediately to abuse@lockimate.com (you can also use “Report a problem” in the app’s Profile tab). Please include any detail that helps us locate the content. We review reports promptly, act where appropriate, and will never retaliate against good-faith reports.
Consequences of violations
Depending on severity, violations may result in content being blocked or removed, loss of access to the Service, a permanent ban of the device or account, and — for unlawful content — referral to law enforcement. We cooperate with valid legal requests.
Copyright and intellectual property
We respect intellectual-property rights and expect you to do the same. If you believe content processed through the Service infringes your copyright, send a notice with the details required under applicable law (such as the U.S. DMCA) to abuse@lockimate.com, and we will respond appropriately, including removing infringing material and, where warranted, banning repeat infringers.
Changes and contact
We may update this Policy from time to time; material changes take effect when posted here. Questions can be sent to hello@lockimate.com. The provider’s full name and address are in our Impressum; see also our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
