18 U.S.C. §2257 Statement
Purpose of This Statement
This statement is provided in connection with 18 U.S.C. §§2257 and 2257A, and 28 C.F.R. Part 75, which impose record-keeping requirements on producers of certain visual depictions of actual sexually explicit conduct. Clothoff AI provides this statement to clarify why these requirements do not apply to our website. Although Clothoff AI operates internationally, we voluntarily address the spirit of applicable U.S. record-keeping standards as a matter of transparency, given that no such content is produced by us.
Nature of Our Website
Clothoff AI is an independent review and information resource. We do not develop, operate, host, or distribute any AI image-editing tool, and we do not create, upload, store, or process any sexually explicit visual depictions of real or fictional persons. Our website consists of editorial content — reviews, ratings, comparisons, and informational articles about third-party AI tools available elsewhere on the internet.
Basis for Non-Applicability
Because Clothoff AI does not produce, photograph, film, videotape, digitize, or otherwise create any visual depiction of actual sexually explicit conduct as defined under 18 U.S.C. §2256, we are not a "producer" within the meaning of 18 U.S.C. §2257(h). Accordingly, our website is not subject to the record-keeping, labeling, and identification requirements set out in 18 U.S.C. §§2257, 2257A, and 28 C.F.R. Part 75.
Content on Third-Party Tools We Review
Where our articles discuss or illustrate the capabilities of third-party AI tools, any such references are handled in accordance with our editorial and content standards, and do not involve actual sexually explicit depictions of identifiable real individuals produced by us. Any record-keeping obligations that may apply to the third-party tools themselves are the sole responsibility of their respective operators and are governed by their own compliance statements.
No Waiver of Rights
This statement is not an admission that Clothoff AI is subject to 18 U.S.C. §2257 or related regulations, and nothing in this statement shall be construed as such. Clothoff AI reserves all rights and defenses available under applicable law.
Updates to This Statement
We may update this statement from time to time to reflect changes in our website, policies, or applicable law. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page indicates when the statement was last revised.
