Child safety standards

Last updated: 2026-11-02

This page is for every GabbleGames game, including Carrom Talk and Ludo Talk (CarromTalk, LudoTalk, ChessMingle, BackgammonTalk, SpadesTalk, 29Talk, CuePub, CheckersTalk, GutiTalk, MorrisTalk and the GabbleGames app), published by DreamAspect Technologies LLC, 971 US Highway 202 N Ste N, Branchburg, NJ 08876-3757, USA.

Our standard

We have zero tolerance for child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE) in any of our apps. That covers child sexual abuse material (CSAM) in any form (photos, videos, drawings, text, names, profile pictures), grooming, sextortion, sexualised talk about or with a minor, and any attempt to arrange a meeting with a child for sexual purposes. It is banned in rooms, chats, calls, clubs, voice messages and profiles. An account that does it is removed for good, the content is deleted and kept only as evidence, and it is reported (see below). There are no warnings first.

Who plays, and how we keep teens apart

The apps are for people 13 and older, and are not designed for children. When you sign up, you say whether you are 18 or older, and if not, whether you are 13 or older. Under 13, you cannot use the apps.

Players aged 13 to 17 are kept in a space of their own:

They are matched, and shown rooms, only with other 13 to 17 players. They cannot start a chat with an adult, and an adult cannot start one with them.
Voice is for friends' rooms only. A teen cannot start or join the voice of a room that Quick play matched; in a room made for friends, and in a call with someone whose chat they accepted, voice works.
Teens cannot send their location, send photos or videos that disappear after one view, or broadcast a room.
Teens see no ads and play for no stakes: Free tables only.
Chat in teen rooms is filtered more strictly than in adult ones.

How to report

You can report anyone and anything, and block anyone, without leaving the app:

A player or a seat in a room: open their card or the seat's menu and choose Report.
A message: press and hold it and choose Report. Copies of the recent messages are sent with your report so that we can see the context.
A chat or a group: open the chat's info page and choose Report.

Or write to us by email at support@dreamaspect.com. If a child is in danger now, call your local emergency number first.

You can also report child sexual abuse material directly to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (CyberTipline, United States), the Internet Watch Foundation (United Kingdom), or your country's hotline through INHOPE.

What we do with a report

A report about a child's safety is read as soon as we see it, and always within 2 business days.
We remove the content and disable the account so that it cannot come back.
We preserve the content, the account's details and the report as evidence, and report apparent CSAM and exploitation of children to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and to the law enforcement authority that applies, as the law requires. We answer lawful requests from the police and from courts.
We tell the person who reported that we acted, without sharing details about the other account.

Write "Child safety" in the subject. Authorities and child-protection organisations can use the same address.

The law

We comply with the child safety laws that apply to us in the places where we operate, including the duty to report apparent child sexual abuse material to the authorities, and Google Play's and the App Store's child safety requirements. We review these standards when the apps or the law change.
