How does Ning define an adult social network?

We believe in freedom of expression and Ning, as a broad-based service, is designed to respect many different perspectives and enable them to co-exist seamlessly and effortlessly. That said, Ning does not support social networks of an adult nature, subject or theme. As it relates to the Ning Platform, adult social networks include, but aren’t limited to pornography and depictions of sexual acts. To clarify the point, social networks that contain or are focused on the following topics would clearly fall into the adult category:

• Pornography or images of sexual acts
• Nudity intended to sexually arouse the viewer
• Graphic photos or videos
• Fetishes
Some examples of topics and content that would NOT be classified as adult include:
• Social networks for heterosexual, gay, lesbian or transgender individuals
• Nudist social networks
• Social networks for educational, medical, or clinical purposes that contain nudity
• Breast Feeding social networks
• Art containing some nudity
• Travel social networks that include content on nude beaches
• Social networks promoting safe sex

Things like nudity, in and of itself, are not always considered adult. That being said, we ask that non-adult social networks with nudity require people to sign in to view this content. We also recognize that the actions of one member do not reflect the intentions of the entire social network or the Network Creator and therefore we’re not looking to classify a social network as adult based on the actions of a single member.
