@Pornhub
has announced a major new policy aimed at strengthening community safety. Starting next year, all new creators on the platform will be required to undergo criminal background checks, with existing creators following suit in 2026.
The company says the move is part of its effort to create “a safer, more trustworthy environment” and will cover all content partners globally. The process will reportedly be free and securely handled, though details about what types of offenses may disqualify creators have not yet been shared.
This marks one of Pornhub’s most extensive safety initiatives to date, following years of reforms to improve moderation and verification standards in the adult industry.
It's unclear what they define as "criminal" or how far back the criminal record check will go, but I'll be sure to keep you updated as more information becomes available.
