Compliance & Content Standards

NightPrime is a Publisher of Online Curated Content (OCC) under the Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021 (“IT Rules 2021”). We voluntarily adhere to the Universal Self-Regulation Code (USRC) issued by the IAMAI/DPCGC and follow the three-tier self-regulation mechanism prescribed under Part III of the IT Rules.

Every short film on NightPrime is self-classified into one of the following age-based categories in accordance with Schedule III of the IT Rules 2021: • U — Universal (suitable for all ages) • U/A 7+ — Universal with parental guidance for viewers under 7 • U/A 13+ — Universal with parental guidance for viewers under 13 • U/A 16+ — Universal with parental guidance for viewers under 16 • A — Adult (18 years and above only) When a film contains sensitive themes — violence, sex, nudity, substance use, or discriminatory content — it is accompanied by content descriptors and, where applicable, viewer discretion advisories displayed before playback.

NightPrime enforces access control mechanisms for U/A 13+, U/A 16+ and A-rated content. Viewers must confirm their age and, for A-rated content, must be signed in with a verified profile. Parental control PIN protection is available in the user profile settings for households with minors.
