18 U.S.C. §§ 2257 and 2257A Record-Keeping Compliance Statement

Last updated: [June 27th, 2026]

BloomTimes is an adult-oriented entertainment website intended only for adults who are at least eighteen (18) years of age or the age of majority in their jurisdiction, whichever is higher.

BloomTimes has a strict zero-tolerance policy regarding minors, apparent minors, exploitation, coercion, trafficking, non-consensual conduct, sexual abuse, sexual violence, unlawful material, or any content that violates applicable law.

Role of BloomTimes

Except where expressly stated otherwise, BloomTimes is not the original producer of third-party adult content that may be referenced, reviewed, embedded, linked, indexed, displayed, promoted, or otherwise made available through the website.

BloomTimes may act as a publisher, host, curator, reviewer, affiliate, promotional partner, directory, index, or technical service provider for content supplied by third-party creators, studios, platforms, licensors, affiliate programs, or authorized content providers.

Requests regarding 18 U.S.C. §§ 2257 or 2257A records for third-party content should be directed to the original producer, studio, platform, creator, licensor, uploader, or rights holder responsible for that content.

Current Content Model

BloomTimes may publish or reference adult-oriented fictional comics, illustrations, animation, AI-generated fictional imagery, editorial reviews, platform reviews, affiliate materials, licensed promotional content, creator profiles, and links to third-party adult platforms.

At this stage, BloomTimes does not produce original live-action sexually explicit content involving real human performers.

If BloomTimes later produces or commissions any content involving real human performers that is subject to 18 U.S.C. §§ 2257 or 2257A, BloomTimes will update this statement and maintain the required records before publishing such material.

Third-Party Content Providers

Before accepting, publishing, promoting, embedding, linking to, or monetizing adult content involving real persons, BloomTimes may require the relevant third-party provider, creator, studio, platform, licensor, affiliate program, or rights holder to represent and warrant that:

  1. Every person appearing in the content was at least eighteen (18) years old at the time of production, or older if required by the applicable jurisdiction.
  2. Every person appearing in the content freely and knowingly consented to appear in the content at the time of production.
  3. Every person appearing in the content consented to the publication, distribution, promotion, or commercial use of the content.
  4. The provider owns or controls the rights necessary to publish, license, distribute, promote, or authorize use of the content.
  5. The provider maintains all records required under 18 U.S.C. §§ 2257, 2257A, and any other applicable laws or regulations.
  6. The content does not involve minors, apparent minors, coercion, trafficking, exploitation, non-consensual conduct, sexual violence, abuse, unlawful activity, or prohibited material.
  7. The content complies with BloomTimes’ Terms of Use, content policies, age and consent standards, copyright policy, and applicable law.

BloomTimes may request additional documentation, certifications, warranties, compliance statements, licensing information, or proof of authorization before publishing or continuing to display any content.

BloomTimes reserves the right to remove, restrict, disable, refuse, or stop monetizing any content if the required age, consent, ownership, licensing, or record-keeping information is incomplete, unavailable, disputed, misleading, insufficient, or not promptly provided upon request.

Fictional, Illustrated, Animated, and AI-Generated Content

Fictional, illustrated, animated, or AI-generated adult content published or promoted on BloomTimes must depict adult characters only.

BloomTimes does not permit sexualized content involving minors, apparent minors, childlike characters, school-age characters, or any person or fictional character who appears to be under the age of majority.

BloomTimes also prohibits content that promotes or depicts exploitation, coercion, trafficking, non-consensual sexual conduct, sexual abuse, sexual violence, or unlawful activity.

Prohibited Content

BloomTimes does not allow content involving:

  1. Minors or apparent minors.
  2. Non-consensual sexual activity.
  3. Sexual exploitation, trafficking, coercion, abuse, or blackmail.
  4. Sexual violence or unlawful violent conduct.
  5. Stolen, leaked, hacked, or unauthorized intimate material.
  6. Impersonation or deceptive use of a real person’s identity.
  7. Content that promotes hatred, dehumanization, abuse, or harassment based on race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or any protected characteristic.
  8. Any content that violates applicable law or BloomTimes’ policies.

Custodian of Records

For third-party content, the original producer, studio, platform, creator, licensor, uploader, or rights holder is responsible for maintaining any records required by 18 U.S.C. §§ 2257 or 2257A.

For any BloomTimes-produced material that may become subject to 18 U.S.C. §§ 2257 or 2257A in the future, BloomTimes will designate an appropriate Custodian of Records and update this page with the required information before publishing such material.

At this stage, BloomTimes does not publish a public Custodian of Records address for original live-action adult productions because BloomTimes does not currently produce such material.
