18 U.S.C. 2257 Record-Keeping Requirements Compliance Statement

Last updated: 29 May 2026 · Wonderland Platform

Wonderland is committed to full compliance with all applicable laws relating to the depiction of persons in explicit content, including 18 U.S.C. § 2257 and its regulations at 28 C.F.R. Part 75 where applicable.

Platform Role

Wonderland operates as a content hosting platform and secondary producer as defined under 18 U.S.C. § 2257. Wonderland does not produce, direct, or film content. All content is produced by independent baddies (content creators) who are the primary producers of their material.

Baddie (Primary Producer) Obligations

Every baddie who uploads content depicting actual or simulated sexually explicit conduct is the primary producer of that content and bears full responsibility for:

Verifying that every person depicted was 18 years of age or older at the time of production;
Obtaining a copy of a government-issued photo ID for every performer depicted;
Creating and maintaining records that include each performer's legal name, date of birth, and any names used in content;
Keeping those records for a minimum of 7 years after the content is last published or distributed;
Making those records available for inspection upon lawful request by the Attorney General of the United States or relevant authorities.

Wonderland's Verification Process

As part of our Baddie KYC process, Wonderland independently verifies the age and identity of all baddies before they are permitted to post any content. This verification includes:

Collection and review of a valid government-issued photo ID;
A live selfie check to confirm the identity matches the ID;
Confirmation that the applicant is 18 years of age or older.

This verification applies to the baddie's own identity. Baddies who feature other individuals in their content remain solely responsible for verifying and documenting the age and identity of those individuals.

Custodian of Records

For the purposes of 18 U.S.C. § 2257, records relating to baddies' own verified identities are maintained by Wonderland. Records relating to other performers depicted in baddie content are held by the respective baddie as primary producer.

Inspection requests from authorised officials should be directed to Wonderland's registered address, available on request through our Help section.

Exemptions

Content that does not depict actual or simulated sexually explicit conduct as defined by 18 U.S.C. § 2257 is exempt from the record-keeping requirements of that statute. Such content may still be subject to other applicable laws and Wonderland's Content Policy.

Zero Tolerance

Any content that depicts a minor in a sexually explicit manner is absolutely prohibited, constitutes a criminal offence, and will be immediately removed and reported to law enforcement including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) via CyberTipline and, where applicable, the South African Police Service (SAPS).
