18 U.S.C. 2257 Compliance Statement

1. Statement of Compliance

This statement is provided in compliance with 18 U.S.C. Section 2257 and 28 C.F.R. Part 75, concerning the record-keeping requirements for producers of actual sexually explicit content.

2. Nature of Our Service

PornoScout operates exclusively as an information location tool that:

• Indexes and catalogs content hosted on third-party websites
• Provides search functionality to locate content across the internet
• Links users to content hosted on external platforms

We do not produce, upload, store, or distribute any actual sexually explicit content. All content accessible through our search results is hosted on and served directly from third-party websites.

3. Basis for Exemption

Under 28 C.F.R. 75.1(c), the record-keeping requirements apply to "producers" of sexually explicit content. As defined in 28 C.F.R. 75.1(c)(2), the term "producer" specifically excludes:

"Persons whose activities relating to the sexually explicit content are limited to providing services and facilities... or limited to placement of advertising or transmitting or publishing information, including computer services, bulletin boards, and the like."

Our service falls squarely within this exemption as we merely index and provide links to content hosted elsewhere.

4. Third-Party Responsibility

All content accessible through our search results is produced and hosted by third parties who bear full responsibility for:

• Compliance with 18 U.S.C. 2257 record-keeping requirements
• Verification of performer ages and consent
• Maintenance of all required records
• Designation of custodians of records

Users seeking 2257 compliance information for specific content should contact the producing website directly.

5. Our Commitment

While exempt from 2257 requirements, PornoScout is committed to:

• Not knowingly indexing content depicting minors or non-consensual activity
• Promptly removing links to content reported as potentially illegal
• Cooperating with law enforcement investigations when legally required
• Encouraging third-party sites we index to maintain 2257 compliance

6. Reporting Concerns

If you have concerns about potentially illegal content appearing in our search results, please report it immediately:

• Report to us: Report Illegal Content or email report@pornoscout.com
• Report to authorities: National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC)
