Adult items policy

Some adult items are allowed when they follow our guidelines.

At iAdvertise.store, we have policies to ensure our platform remains a trusted and inclusive environment for our global community of buyers and sellers. Although most adult-only items are prohibited, listings that show nudity are allowed in limited situations when they follow the guidelines below.

We're committed to preventing bias in the application of our policies. All forms of adult content that don't follow our policy will be removed. We'll review the content of the listing, images, and the category of the items to determine if it is allowed.

iAdvertise.store defines nudity as showing any part of male or female genitalia, anus, or female breasts where the areola or nipple is visible. The following are also considered nudity:

• Modeled clothing that is see-through or very tight and shows human genitalia, the anus, or the nipple/areola of female breasts
• Male erections, even if the model is clothed
• People engaged in sexual contact or activity
