18 U.S.C. § 2257 Exemption Statement

All visual depictions on Velvet Arcade are drawn, animated or computer-generated depictions of fictional characters. No actual human being appears in any sexually explicit visual depiction on this site.

The record-keeping requirements of 18 U.S.C. § 2257 and § 2257A and 28 C.F.R. Part 75 apply to visual depictions of actual human beings engaged in sexually explicit conduct. Because Velvet Arcade's Content Policy prohibits real people in sexual content — including photographs, video and real-person likenesses — and every character is a fictional, computer-generated character, these requirements do not apply to content on this site.

All fictional characters depicted in sexual content are adults aged 18 or older.

If you believe any content on Velvet Arcade depicts a real person, please report it immediately.
