Anti Human Trafficking Policy

Anti-Human Trafficking Policy

Mehind Limited, the owner and operator of Escorts.Help and affiliated platforms, has a zero-tolerance approach to all forms of human trafficking, forced labour, sexual exploitation, and modern slavery. This policy outlines our commitment to preventing, identifying, reporting, and eradicating any such conduct associated with our digital platform or user activity.

1. Legal Basis

This policy is governed by and aligns with the following UK and international frameworks:

Modern Slavery Act 2015 (UK)
Sexual Offences Act 2003
UN Palermo Protocol (2000)
European Convention on Human Rights
Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA – US, for international cooperation)

2. Platform Purpose and Boundaries

Escorts.Help is a lawful self-service advertising platform for consenting adults. We are not an agency, escort broker, or matchmaking service. We do not schedule appointments, take bookings, or facilitate direct introductions. Our services are limited to digital publication and promotional exposure for verified individuals over the age of 18.

3. Prohibited Conduct

We strictly prohibit use of our Platform for any activity involving:

Recruitment, coercion, transportation, harbouring, or receipt of individuals for sexual or commercial exploitation
Forcing or tricking individuals into providing adult services against their will
Advertising on behalf of another person without verified, informed, and documented consent
Listing persons under coercive control, debt bondage, intimidation, or surveillance
Use of third-party traffickers, handlers, or enforcers to manage online profiles or communications

4. Identity Verification & Monitoring

We implement proactive measures to detect and deter trafficking activities:

Mandatory photo ID and live selfie verification for advertisers
Ongoing risk-based checks on IP addresses, browser fingerprints, and geolocation
Manual moderation to flag repetitive or suspicious wording, signs of coercion, or bulk-controlled content
Automated tools to detect duplicate faces, forced nudity, or hidden handlers

5. Staff Training

All employees and contractors involved in content moderation or user support receive training in:

Recognising signs of trafficking and forced behaviour
How to respond appropriately and escalate suspected cases
Legal obligations under the Modern Slavery Act 2015

6. Reporting & Escalation

Any user, visitor, or staff member may report suspected trafficking or exploitation by emailing [email protected]. Reports may be anonymous and should include:

The suspected profile or content link
A description of the concern (e.g., scripted text, signs of coercion)
Any supporting screenshots or proof (if available)

We will respond within 24 hours and, where applicable, notify appropriate authorities including the National Crime Agency (NCA), Modern Slavery Helpline, Europol, or international partners via MLAT.

7. Cooperation with Law Enforcement

We cooperate fully with UK and international authorities investigating modern slavery and human trafficking. This may include:

Supplying verified ID, IP logs, and platform activity records under lawful disclosure requests
Preserving user data as required by Section 52 of the Modern Slavery Act
Removing or preserving content in line with law enforcement orders or warrants

8. Continuous Improvement

This policy is reviewed annually or whenever a serious incident or legal development occurs. We are committed to working with anti-trafficking NGOs, data analysts, and forensic investigators to continuously improve protections and prevention.

9. Statement of Accountability

Mehind Limited maintains full accountability under Section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015. Our directors confirm that this policy is actively implemented and enforced throughout our digital infrastructure and business operations.
