Statement regarding the producer status of Muse Escorts Platform Ltd and the verification practices applied to content uploaded to museescorts.co.nz.
Muse Escorts Platform Ltd operates a hosting directory. The operator does not act as a producer (primary or secondary) within the meaning of 18 U.S.C. §2257 or 28 C.F.R. §75 in respect of any visual depiction appearing on this website. All content is uploaded by third party users in respect of profiles those users control. Photo verification is offered to every uploader and is required to receive a verified badge on the listing.
Muse Escorts Platform Ltd (Muse Escorts) is a New Zealand company operating an advertising directory at museescorts.co.nz. With respect to content depicted on the website, the operator's role is limited to the transmission, storage, retrieval, hosting, and indexing of content uploaded by verified third party users.
Muse Escorts does not produce, direct, commission, edit, or otherwise create any content. To the extent that 18 U.S.C. §2257 or its implementing regulations apply to any visual depiction on the website, the producer of that depiction is the verified uploader who created and uploaded it. Producer record keeping obligations, where applicable, rest with that uploader and not with Muse Escorts.
Photo verification is needed from every uploader who wants to receive a verified badge on their listing. Verification is performed by submitting a clear photograph of the uploader's face held alongside a piece of paper bearing the current date. The photograph must be captured at the time of verification and must visibly match the individual depicted in the profile content. Listings that have not completed photo verification are displayed without a verified badge.
Before any listing is published, every uploader is also required to:
Muse Escorts may, at its discretion, require an uploader to provide a copy of a government issued photo identity document (such as a passport or driver licence) showing date of birth, or to complete an additional identity or age verification check performed by a third party verification service, as a condition of continued listing. Profiles for which requested identity documents or third party verification checks are not completed are unpublished or removed from the website.
For the purpose of platform safety, identity verification, and cooperation with New Zealand law enforcement, Muse Escorts retains the following records in respect of each verified uploader:
These records are retained as identity and safety records under New Zealand law and our Data Retention & Deletion Policy. They are not maintained as records of a producer under 18 U.S.C. §2257; producer records, where applicable, are the responsibility of the uploader. Muse Escorts records are stored securely in compliance with the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020 and accessed only for identity verification, platform safety, lawful disclosure, and operator compliance with applicable law.
Records held by Muse Escorts in respect of verified uploaders are maintained by:
Lawful requests for records held by Muse Escorts should be addressed to the legal team at the email above. Producers are reminded that the §2257 record keeping obligation, where applicable, rests with the producer of the visual depiction and not with Muse Escorts. A request for §2257 records should be directed to the producer, not to the operator of this website.
If you believe content on this website depicts an individual under the age of eighteen (18), was uploaded without the rights holder's authorisation, or otherwise breaches our policies, please report it immediately:
Reports of suspected child exploitation material are escalated to NZ Police immediately and the content is removed pending investigation. See our Anti-Trafficking and Exploitation Policy for the full safety reporting process.
Muse Escorts Platform Ltd is incorporated and operates in New Zealand. The website and the operator are governed by New Zealand law, including the Prostitution Reform Act 2003, the Films, Videos, and Publications Classification Act 1993, and the Privacy Act 2020. This statement is provided to clearly establish the operator's status as a non-producer host and to support the §2257 compliance position of any verified uploader to whom 18 U.S.C. §2257 may apply.
Nothing in this statement extends United States jurisdiction over Muse Escorts Platform Ltd or any uploader, nor does anything in this statement constitute an admission that 18 U.S.C. §2257 applies to the operator or to any content on the website.
