Child Safety Standards

PakBazar has zero tolerance for child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE), including child sexual abuse material (CSAM). This page explains our standards and how to report a concern.

Last updated: 28 October 2026

Our commitment

PakBazar is a classifieds marketplace for buying and selling items in Pakistan. Any content or behaviour that sexualises, abuses, exploits or endangers children is strictly forbidden on PakBazar, in the website and in the Android app. We remove it and act against the accounts involved.

Prohibited content and behaviour

  • Child sexual abuse material (CSAM) of any kind, including drawn, edited or AI-generated images.
  • Any content that sexualises minors, including in photos, titles, descriptions or messages.
  • Grooming, or contacting a minor for sexual purposes.
  • Sextortion, or threats involving images of a minor.
  • Child trafficking, or offering, “selling” or exchanging children in any form.
  • Ads or job posts used to lure, recruit or exploit minors, including child labour.
  • Links to, or requests for, any of the above.

Age requirement

You must be 18 or older to create an account or post ads on PakBazar. We remove accounts we believe belong to someone under 18.

How to report

  • In the app or website: every ad and every seller profile has a Report button. Choose “Child safety concern” and add any details. You do not need to be signed in to report.
  • By email: write to salimpk743@gmail.com with the link to the ad or profile and what you saw.
  • Please do not download, copy or share abusive material, even to report it. Send us the link instead.
  • If a child is in immediate danger, contact the police on 15 first.

What we do when we receive a report

  • We treat child safety reports as our highest priority. An ad reported for a child safety concern is hidden from public view straight away while we review it.
  • We remove violating content promptly.
  • We permanently ban the accounts involved and work to stop them from coming back.
  • We preserve relevant information and report apparent CSAM and child exploitation to the authorities, including the NCMEC CyberTipline and Pakistan’s FIA Cyber Crime Wing / National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA).
  • We cooperate with lawful requests from law enforcement.

Compliance with laws

PakBazar complies with applicable child safety laws, including the laws of Pakistan such as the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act 2016 and the Pakistan Penal Code, and the reporting obligations that apply to us.
