Why Do You Need the 18+ Mark in Your Profile?
If you create, publish, or sell adult-oriented content, it’s important to notify both the platform and your readers by setting the “18+” mark in your profile. This ensures compliance with platform rules and protects users from unexpected or unwanted content.
✅ What can be published without the “18+” mark?
- Educational materials, e.g.: courses on relationships and psychology, lectures on healthy living, or scientific materials about physiology.
- Neutral content, e.g.: self-development tips, discussions of family values, psychological consultations.
🔞 What can be published with the “18+” mark?
- Suggestive but non-nude content. For example: photos or videos in lingerie, swimsuits, or tight clothing. The key rule: do not show intimate body parts (genitals, female nipples).
- Aesthetic and artistic imagery, e.g.: images in attractive but not overly explicit poses. Important: they must not imitate sexual intercourse.
- Educational content, e.g.: lectures or materials on sexual health and relationships, if they include descriptions of practices, scenarios, or explicit examples.
🚫 What cannot be published even with the “18+” mark?
- Photos and videos with full or partial nudity (genitals, female nipples), even if censored (blur, stickers, pixelation).
- Pornography and explicit sexual scenes.
- Any content that imitates or depicts sexual acts or intercourse.
- Content containing hints at prohibited material, e.g.: “NSFW,” “nude version,” “explicit photo,” or similar terms.
Such content violates platform rules and will be blocked.
⚠️ Important
If your lava.top profile contains links to websites or social networks with adult content, you must enable the “18+” mark.
How to enable the “18+” mark

Toggle the 18+ switch to the right.
Done! Now, when users visit your profile or product links, they will be notified that your profile contains 18+ content.
