18 U.S.C. §2257 Compliance Statement

Last updated: November 30, 2025

This 18 U.S.C. §2257 Compliance Statement (the “Statement”) describes how HQ Porn (“we”, “us”, “our”) relates to the record-keeping and age-verification requirements associated with visual depictions of sexually explicit conduct under 18 U.S.C. §2257 and related regulations. This Statement is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice.

1. Nature of the Website and Content

HQ Porn, accessible at hqporn.tube and related domains (collectively, the “Website”), primarily functions as an index, catalog, and embedding platform for adult videos and live streams that are hosted and produced by third-party websites, studios, cam networks, and advertisers.

  • We do not ordinarily create, film, or produce the visual depictions displayed through embedded players.
  • Most videos and streams appear on the Website via embed codes, iframes, or external links.
  • The underlying content is hosted on external servers operated by independent third parties who may qualify as “primary producers” under 18 U.S.C. §2257 and the applicable federal regulations.

2. Status as a Non-Producer / Secondary Provider

The operator of this Website does not act as a “primary producer” of any visual depictions of sexually explicit conduct as defined by 18 U.S.C. §2257 and 28 C.F.R. §75.1(c). Instead:

  • We are a secondary provider / information service, indexing, organizing, and promoting content that is produced and hosted by third parties.
  • Any visual depictions of actual sexually explicit conduct that appear on the Website are created and provided by third-party content producers, networks, and websites.
  • As a result, the obligation to maintain the records required under 18 U.S.C. §2257 generally rests with the respective primary producer(s) of those depictions.

For any specific piece of embedded content, the records required by 18 U.S.C. §2257 are maintained by the third-party site or producer that originally created and published the material.

3. Age of Performers

It is our firm policy that no visual depictions of actual minors (persons under the age of eighteen (18) years) are knowingly displayed on this Website.

  • We require, and reasonably rely upon, the representations made by third-party content providers and networks that all performers depicted are at least eighteen (18) years of age at the time of production.
  • Third-party producers and hosting platforms are responsible for obtaining and maintaining the identification documents and age-verification records required under 18 U.S.C. §2257 and related rules.
  • We do not intentionally index, promote, or embed any content that depicts minors or persons represented as minors in sexually explicit situations.

If you believe that any content accessible through this Website involves minors or appears to be in violation of 18 U.S.C. §2257, please notify us immediately using the contact details provided below so we can review and, where appropriate, remove or block access to such material.

4. Location of Required Records

Because we do not act as a primary producer of the visual depictions of actual sexually explicit conduct that may be accessible on the Website, HQ Porn does not maintain the original identification and age verification records for such content.

The records required under 18 U.S.C. §2257 with respect to any such visual depictions are maintained by the respective primary producer(s) of the content. For further information about those records, you must contact the third-party website, studio, or producer that originally generated and published the material.

5. Third-Party Websites, Networks, and Embeds

The Website contains numerous links and embedded players that direct you to content hosted on third-party domains, including but not limited to tube sites, premium networks, live cam platforms, studios, and advertisers.

  • We do not control the creation, editing, or storage of the actual visual depictions on those third-party sites.
  • We are not in a position to verify or audit the underlying identification records for each individual performer shown in third-party videos or streams.
  • Any request for inspection of 18 U.S.C. §2257 records regarding particular content must be directed to the primary producer or hosting provider identified by the domain or brand where the content originates.

6. Reporting Concerns and Requesting Removal

We take compliance, safety, and the protection of minors extremely seriously. If you believe that:

  • Any content accessible through this Website may depict a minor or be otherwise misclassified; or
  • The content appears to violate 18 U.S.C. §2257 or other applicable laws;

please contact us without delay and provide as much detail as possible (URL, title, embedded provider, screenshots, and any additional information you may have). We will promptly review the report and, where appropriate, disable access, remove links/embeds, or take other reasonable actions.

7. No Legal Advice / Changes to This Statement

This Statement is intended solely as a general disclosure of our practices and our relationship to third-party content producers in the context of 18 U.S.C. §2257. It should not be relied upon as legal advice. Laws and regulations may change, and the application of legal requirements may vary depending on specific facts and circumstances.

We may update, modify, or replace this Statement from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date shown at the top of this page. Your continued use of the Website after such changes are posted will constitute your acknowledgment of the updated Statement.
