To provide insight into Snap’s safety efforts and the nature and volume of content reported on our platform, we publish transparency reports twice a year. We are committed to continuing to make these reports more comprehensive and informative to the many stakeholders who care deeply about our content moderation and law enforcement practices, as well as the  well-being of our community. 

This report covers the second half of 2022 (July 1 - December 31). As with our previous reports, we share data about the global number of in-app content and account-level reports we received and enforced against across specific categories of policy violations; how we responded to requests from law enforcement and governments; and our enforcement actions broken down by country. It also captures recent additions to this report, including the Violative View Rate of Snapchat content, potential trademark violations, and incidences of false information on the platform.

As part of our ongoing commitment to continually improve our transparency reports, we are introducing a few new elements with this release. We have added a section labeled “Analysis of Content and Account Violations” wherein we assess major data changes relative to our previous reporting period. 

In addition, we have updated how we present data in our content and account violations tables, both on the landing page and our country sub-pages. Previously, we ordered violations from most to least content enforcements. To improve consistency, our ordering now mirrors our Community Guidelines. This came at the suggestion of Snap’s Safety Advisory Board, which independently educates, challenges, raises issues to, and advises Snap on how to help keep the Snapchat community safe.

Finally, we have updated our Glossary with links to our Community Guidelines Explainers, which provide additional context around our platform policy and operational efforts. 

For more information about our policies for combating online harms, and plans to continue evolving our reporting practices, please read our recent Safety & Impact blog about this transparency report.

१ जानेवारी ते ३० जून २०२२ पर्यंत, आम्ही आमच्या धोरणांचे उल्लंघन करणाऱ्या आशयाच्या जागतिक स्तरावर 5,688,970 भागांवर अंमलबजावणी केलेली आहे. अंमलबजावणी कृतींमध्ये आक्षेपार्ह मजकूर काढून टाकणे किंवा विचाराधीन खाते बंद करणे समाविष्ट आहेत.

अहवाल देण्याच्या कालावधी दरम्यान, आम्ही ०.०४ टक्के व्हायोलॅटीव्ह व्ह्यू रेट (VVR) पहिला, याचा अर्थ असा आहे की Snapchat वरील प्रत्येक १०,००० Snap आणि स्टोरी दृश्यांपैकी ४ दृश्यांमध्ये आमच्या मार्गदर्शक तत्त्वांचे उल्लंघन करणारा मजकूर आहे. 

*Correctly and consistently enforcing against false information is a dynamic process that requires up-to-date context and diligence.  As we strive to continually improve the precision of our agents’ enforcement in this category, we have chosen, since H1 2022, to report figures in the "Content Enforced" and "Unique Accounts Enforced" categories that are estimated based on a rigorous quality-assurance review of a statistically significant portion of false information enforcements.  Specifically, we sample a statistically significant portion of false information enforcements across each country and quality-check the enforcement decisions.  We then use those quality-checked enforcements to derive enforcement rates with a 95% confidence interval (+/- 5% margin of error), which we use to calculate the false information enforcements reported in the Transparency Report.

The sexual exploitation of any member of our community, especially minors, is illegal, abhorrent, and prohibited by our Community Guidelines. Preventing, detecting, and eradicating Child Sexual Exploitation and Abuse Imagery (CSEAI) on our platform is a top priority for Snap, and we continually evolve our capabilities to combat these and other crimes.

Our Trust & Safety team uses active technology detection tools, such as PhotoDNA robust hash-matching and Google’s Child Sexual Abuse Imagery (CSAI) Match to identify known illegal images and videos of child sexual abuse, respectively, and report them to the U.S. National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC), as required by law. NCMEC then, in turn, coordinates with domestic or international law enforcement, as required.

In the second half of 2022, we proactively detected and actioned 94 percent of the total child sexual exploitation and abuse violations reported here.

During the reporting period, we removed 132 accounts for violations of our policy prohibiting terrorist and violent extremist content.

At Snap, we remove terrorist and violent extremism content reported through multiple channels. These include encouraging users to report terrorist and violent extremist content through our in-app reporting menu, and we work closely with law enforcement to address terrorist and violent extremist content that may appear on Snap.

आम्ही स्नॅपचॅटर्सच्या मानसिक आरोग्याची आणि कल्याणाची वर्तमानात आणि भविष्यात देखील Snapchat वेगळ्या पद्धतीने तयार करण्याच्या आमच्या निर्णयांची माहिती देण्याबद्दल खूप काळजी घेणार आहोत. Snapchat हे खऱ्या मित्रांना त्यांच्या कठीण क्षणांत एकमेकांना मदत करण्‍यासाठी आणि मित्रांमध्‍ये संवाद साधण्‍यासाठी तयार केलेले व्यासपीठ म्‍हणून आम्‍हाला विश्‍वास आहे की त्यांना सक्षम बनवण्‍यात अनोखी भूमिका बजावू शकते.

जेव्हा आमची ट्रस्ट अँड सेफ्टी टीम संकटात असलेल्या Snapchatter ला ओळखते, तेव्हा ते सेल्फ हार्म प्रतिबंध आणि सपोर्ट संसाधने फॉरवर्ड करू शकतात आणि योग्य तेथे आपत्कालीन प्रतिसाद कर्मचार्‍यांना सूचित करू शकतात. आम्ही शेअर केलेली संसाधने आमच्या सुरक्षा संसाधनांची जागतिक यादी वर उपलब्ध आहे आणि ही सर्व स्नॅपचॅटर्ससाठी सार्वजनिकपणे उपलब्ध आहे.

हा विभाग भौगोलिक क्षेत्राच्या नमुन्यांमध्ये आमच्या सामुदायिक दिशानिर्देशकांची अंमलबजावणी करण्याची एक कल्पना देतो. आमची दिशानिर्देश तत्वे काही स्थानांपुरती मर्यादित नसून—Snapchat वरील सर्व मजकुरावर—आणि सर्व स्नॅपचॅटर्सना लागू आहेत.
