# NSFW

> Detect sexual content, flirtation, profanity, violence, and self-harm across text, image, video, and audio.

NSFW (not safe for work) policies cover content that's inappropriate for general audiences — explicit material, graphic violence, profanity, and content related to self-harm.

## Policies

| `id`         | Type         | Supported                 | What it does                                                                                      |
| ------------ | ------------ | ------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `sexual`     | `classifier` | text, image, video, audio | Sexually explicit or suggestive content.                                                          |
| `flirtation` | `classifier` | text, audio               | Compliments on looks, subtle innuendo, pickup lines, flirtatious behavior. Lighter than `sexual`. |
| `profanity`  | `classifier` | text, audio               | Swearing, vulgar language, offensive words.                                                       |
| `violence`   | `classifier` | text, image, video, audio | Violent content, threats, or graphic violence.                                                    |
| `self_harm`  | `classifier` | text, image, video, audio | Self-harm, suicide, and eating-disorder content.                                                  |

## Reading the result

```javascript theme={"theme":"nord"}
const sexual = response.policies.find(p => p.id === "sexual");
if (sexual?.flagged) {
  // Send to review queue or reject outright depending on threshold.
}
```

<Note>
  `self_harm` content often warrants a different response than other NSFW flags — for example, surfacing a support resource link rather than just rejecting the post. Use the `recommendation.action` plus the policy `id` to branch.
