The Sandbox Club — Record-Keeping Requirements Exemption

This statement is made in accordance with 18 U.S.C. § 2257 and 28 C.F.R. Part 75, regarding the record-keeping requirements for content depicting actual or simulated sexually explicit conduct.

Exemption Status

The Sandbox Club, operated by CCM Productions LLC, is not a producer of any visual depictions of actual or simulated sexually explicit conduct as defined under 18 U.S.C. § 2257 and 28 C.F.R. § 75.1(c).

The Sandbox Club and its affiliated online platforms, including Sandbox Social, function as a private membership club and a user-generated content platform, respectively. The Sandbox Club does not produce, commission, direct, or otherwise create primary content depicting sexually explicit conduct.

User-Generated Content

All photos, videos, and other visual content on our platforms are uploaded voluntarily by our members. Members act as the producers of their own content and are solely responsible for compliance with all applicable laws, including but not limited to 18 U.S.C. § 2257 record-keeping requirements.

By uploading content to our platforms, members represent and warrant that:

  • All individuals depicted in their content are at least 18 years of age (and at least 21 years of age for club membership purposes).
  • They have obtained all necessary consents from individuals depicted in their content.
  • They maintain any records required by applicable law, including 18 U.S.C. § 2257, to the extent such requirements apply to them as content producers.

Age Verification

The Sandbox Club requires all members to be at least 21 years of age. Government-issued photo identification is verified during the membership application process and checked at every visit to the club. This age verification requirement exceeds the minimum age threshold established under 18 U.S.C. § 2257.

Content Moderation

While The Sandbox Club is exempt from the record-keeping requirements of 18 U.S.C. § 2257 as a non-producer, we take the protection of minors seriously. We actively moderate our platforms and will immediately remove any content that appears to involve individuals under the age of 18. Any member found uploading such content will have their membership permanently revoked and the matter reported to the appropriate law enforcement authorities.

The following content is strictly prohibited on all Sandbox Club platforms:

  • Any visual depiction of minors (individuals under 18 years of age).
  • Any content that appears to depict minors, regardless of the actual age of individuals depicted.
  • Any content uploaded without the consent of all individuals depicted.
