Law centre — boundary standardUnited Kingdom

The UK's law is the gate.

Open client record

Sharing or threatening to share intimate images without consent is a crime, and the UK has official support options. The public page names the standard; the working review stays sealed.

If you found this page in the worst week of your life, you do not need to expose more than necessary. You need the right boundary preserved quietly.

SECTION 03 — BOUNDARY STANDARDS

What can be named publicly — and what stays sealed.

Sexual Offences Act 2003 s.66B

Sharing — or threatening to share — an intimate image without consent is a criminal offence (added by the Online Safety Act 2023).

Revenge Porn Helpline + StopNCII.org

Official and participating-provider options kept visible without publishing the client-record review.

UK GDPR — Article 17 right to erasure

A public de-listing standard that still requires a careful written boundary.

The official boundaries stay visible. The working boundary stays in the client record.

MANDATORY REFERRALMINORS — NEVER A COMMERCIAL CASE
