9. AI Safety & Content Review

To help keep Look to Hook safe for everyone, we use a combination of artificial intelligence (AI) and human moderation.

Our safety systems may review:

• Messages reported by users
• Usernames
• Reports submitted through the app
• Other user-generated content

These systems help identify content that may violate our Community Guidelines, including harassment, hate speech, explicit content, graphic violence, fraud, spam, illegal activity, and fake accounts.

Content identified as potentially violating these Guidelines may be removed, rejected before publication, restricted, or reviewed by moderators. Using AI allows us to respond quickly to harmful content, while human review ensures fairness.
