6ix — Law Enforcement Guidelines

• We review all requests for legal sufficiency and narrowly tailor any disclosure.
• We prioritize user privacy and safety, consistent with applicable laws and court orders.
• We may refuse, narrow, or challenge requests that are overbroad, vague, unsupported, or improperly served.

These guidelines operate with our core policies: Privacy, Terms — Security, Copyright/DMCA, Cybercrimes Notice.

• Email/username, display name, avatar
• Phone (if provided), country/region signals (e.g., IP)
• Creation date, status, strikes (policy context only)

• Login timestamps, IPs, user-agent/device type
• Feature usage events and error/crash logs
• Room participation metadata (time joined/left)

• Posts, comments, messages (subject to retention/settings)
• Stream recordings or replays only if creator enabled
• Thumbnails, captions, safety labels

Limited billing metadata and verification signals from payment/KYC partners. We do not store full card numbers. See Creator Earnings and Privacy — Sharing.

• Abuse reports, rate-limit triggers, automated safety flags
• Integrity checks (e.g., suspected spam/fraud indicators)

Retention varies by category and law. See Privacy — Retention.

• Plain-text passwords (we only store hashed).
• End-to-end encrypted content (if/when offered) — we cannot decrypt.
• Real-time device GPS (we infer approximate location from IP only).

• We do not create new records or perform targeted surveillance absent valid process.
• We cannot provide third-party platform data (outside 6ix).
• Deleted/expired data may no longer exist at the time of request.

• Basic subscriber info: typically subpoena or local equivalent.
• Non-content metadata: court order or equivalent where required.
• Content: search warrant or order based on probable cause (jurisdiction dependent).

• Identify account(s): user ID, handle, registered email.
• Specify exact records sought and time ranges.
• Include agency/authority details and official return email.

We accept properly scoped preservation requests pending legal process. A snapshot may be preserved for a limited period (e.g., 90 days, renewable) as allowed by law.

• Provide account identifiers and precise date/time ranges (UTC preferred).
• Explain the proceeding and applicable authority.
• Email: legal@6ixapp.com

In a good-faith emergency involving imminent risk of death or serious physical harm, we may disclose limited data to law enforcement without legal process, where permitted by law.

• Agency name, requesting officer, official email and phone.
• Specific facts explaining the emergency and immediate risk.
• Identifiers (user ID, handle, profile URL) and precise data needed.
• Subject: “Emergency Request — Imminent Harm” to legal@6ixapp.com.

Where legally permissible and safe, we notify users of requests for their information before disclosure to allow them to seek legal remedies.

• Prohibition by law or court order (e.g., non-disclosure, gag orders).
• Clear risk to life, safety, or integrity of investigation.
• In such cases, we may delay notice until risk subsides.

• Use applicable MLATs or obtain process from a competent court with jurisdiction over 6ix.
• Requests and communications should be in English or include certified translations.

We assess requests under applicable privacy/communications laws. See Privacy — Law Enforcement & Requests.

• Legal authority and process type
• Account identifiers & precise timeframe (UTC)
• Specific records sought (avoid “any and all”)
• Contact info for the requesting officer

• Email service to: legal@6ixapp.com
• Data typically delivered via secure link; formats may include JSON/CSV/EML
• Links expire; request re-issue if needed

• We can encrypt with an agency-provided PGP key
• We may require callback verification before release

• We verify official domains and may call back using published numbers.
• Personal/free email domains are not accepted for official service.

We maintain internal logs of request metadata and disclosures. Preserve our cover letter and hash values (if provided) for your records.

We may seek reimbursement for costs reasonably incurred in responding to lawful process, consistent with applicable law and industry practice.

• Complex data pulls or expedited processing may incur additional costs.
• We will communicate any fees in advance where feasible.

6ix intends to publish aggregate numbers about legal requests and content enforcement.

See our Transparency Report (when available).

Content includes user-generated media and messages where retained. Non-content includes metadata like login timestamps, IPs, and device info.

A good-faith request where delay poses an imminent risk of death or serious physical harm.

Serve legal process via official channels. For questions or submissions: legal@6ixapp.com

These guidelines do not create enforceable rights and may change without notice. 6ix may challenge requests it deems improper or unlawful.
