Online Safety on 6E Club: Report, Block, Privacy and Screen Time

Checked 26 October 2026 · 6E Club help guide

Online safety on 6E Club comes down to three plain things: you can report anything that breaks the rules, you can block anyone who bothers you, and you decide what the platform shows about you. This guide walks through every safety control built into the product, from the Report button under each video to the privacy switches in Settings.

It is written for viewers, uploaders and parents in India who mostly watch on a phone over mobile data. You do not need an account to report a video, and none of the tools below cost anything.

What Online Safety Covers on a Video Platform

People usually search for online safety after something specific happens: a comment that crossed a line, a video that shows a person who never agreed to be filmed, a child who found the phone unlocked, or a message that asked for a login code. Each of those has a different fix, so this page is organised by the fix rather than by the worry.

On the 6E Club video platform the fixes fall into five groups. Reporting handles content that breaks the rules for uploads and comments. Blocking handles people. Privacy controls decide who sees your likes, favorites, history and videos. Sensitive-content and screen-time settings shape what reaches you and for how long. The last group sits outside the site: scams that use our name, and the Indian helplines.

A fair warning first: online safety tools reduce harm, they do not make it impossible. The habits at the end of this guide matter as much as the buttons.

Reporting a Video, Comment or Channel

Reporting is the core of online safety here because it is the one tool that changes what everyone else sees, not just what you see. Every video, comment and channel page has its own Report button, and each report is read by a person.

What the Report button does

Under a video the button sits in the row with Like, Share and Save; on a comment it is in the three-dot menu; on a channel it is in the menu next to Follow. It opens a short dialog: choose one reason, say whether the problem is the whole video or only a part, add details, and leave an email address if you want the outcome. Signed-out visitors can report videos; comments and channels need a signed-in account.

The twelve report reasons and when to pick each one
Reason	Pick it when	Usual outcome if confirmed
Sexual or pornographic	Nudity, pornography or sexual acts, including in the thumbnail or title	Removed, or restricted to adults when it is not explicit
Child safety	A child is shown in danger, abused or sexualised	Removed at once, account closed, referred to the authorities
Offensive or disturbing	Gore, cruelty to animals or shock footage with no purpose beyond the shock	Removed or restricted to adults
Hateful	Attacks on people for religion, caste, gender, disability or similar	Removed; strike for the uploader
Glorifies or denies a crime	Praises a crime or its perpetrator, or denies a documented one	Removed; strike for the uploader
Misinformation	False health, election or disaster claims presented as fact	Removed or kept with a note, after a careful check
Terrorism	Recruits for, praises or shows an attack	Removed at once; account closed
Violent or dangerous	Real fights, threats, graphic injury, or a stunt that others could copy	Removed or restricted to adults
Misleading or spam (incl. undisclosed AI or paid partnership)	Fake titles, bulk reposts, scams, or a label left off	Removed; labels corrected; uploads limited
Copyright	Someone uploaded a film, song or clip you own	Opens the copyright form; a valid notice is acted on within 36 hours
Other rights (privacy, trademark, defamation, harassment)	A private person filmed without consent, a copied brand, a false claim about someone, or targeted abuse	Opens the rights form; removed or blurred when confirmed
Other illegal content	Anything else against Indian law, named in the details box	Reviewed by the grievance team; removed when confirmed

Copyright and Other rights route to the copyright and rights form at /report/?type=copyright instead of the details box, because a valid notice needs proof and contact details that a short dialog cannot collect. The copyright takedown route explains the timelines and the counter-notice.

Whole video or only a part

When you choose a part, the dialog asks for a start and an end time, prefilled from where the player was when you tapped Report. A reviewer facing a forty-minute vlog with ten bad seconds in the middle decides much faster when you point at the exact moment.

What happens next

The report lands in a queue that the review team works through by severity, child safety and terrorism first. A video that collects five open reports before anyone has looked at it is hidden automatically and the uploader told it is under review; it returns if the reports do not hold up.

There are three outcomes. Remove takes the content down and usually gives the uploader a strike, which lasts 90 days; three active strikes mean a seven-day upload ban, and a strike earned during a ban means suspension. Restrict to adults keeps the video up under the sensitive-content restriction, so it is hidden from under-18 accounts and from anyone with the default filter on. Keep means the content stays. If you left an email address you get the result either way.

Appeals

Both sides can appeal: the uploader whose video was removed or restricted, and the reporter whose report was dismissed. Each decision allows one appeal within six months, from the link in the outcome email or from the strikes page in the creator studio, and a different reviewer reads it.

Blocking an Account

Reporting is for content that breaks the rules. Blocking is the online safety tool for people you simply do not want to deal with, whether or not they broke a rule.

You block from the menu on a channel page or on any of that person’s comments. After that, their comments and replies no longer appear for you anywhere on the site, and they cannot comment on your videos. Blocking is private: nobody is notified, and the list lives only in your Settings, where you can undo it at any time.

Two limits to know. A block does not hide their public videos from search or the explore feed. And a determined person can register a new account; if the behaviour continues, report that one too.

Privacy Controls: Who Sees Your Likes, Favorites, History and Videos

Most online safety worries about privacy come from not knowing what is public. The short version: your public comments, public videos, public playlists and channel profile are visible to everyone; everything else is yours alone.

What each part of your activity reveals, and where to change it
Activity	Who can see it	Where to change it
Likes	Nobody. The video shows a count, never the names	Nothing to change; it is always private
Favorites	Only you	Library → Favorites
Watch history	Only you	Library → History: pause it or clear it
Playlists	Public, unlisted or private, your choice per list	Library → Playlists, or the creator studio
Videos you upload	Public, Unlisted (link only), Private, Password or Scheduled	Upload page or the studio edit drawer
Comments	Everyone who can see the video, under your username	Delete them from the comment menu
Channel profile	Everyone: name, handle, avatar, banner, description, links, country	Studio → Channel
Email and birth year	Nobody; never shown on any page	Settings → Account

Unlisted suits family videos: it stays out of feeds, search and your channel page, and only people with the link can open it. Private shows the video to you alone, and Password adds a word the viewer must type. For history, pausing stops new entries and clearing removes the existing ones.

Hide Sensitive Content

Some videos are allowed on the platform but not for everyone: strong language, simulated violence in a film clip, a medical procedure, a news report from a disaster. Uploaders must mark those with the sensitive-content restriction, and reviewers apply it when an uploader forgot. This switch is the quiet half of online safety: it works without anyone reporting anything.

Hide sensitive content in Settings is on for every new account and for every signed-out visitor. With it on, restricted videos stay out of feeds, search and the shorts feed, and a watch link to one shows a notice instead of the player. Adults (18 or older by birth year) can turn the switch off. For accounts aged 13 to 17 it is locked on.

Screen Time and Mobile Data

Online safety is also about how much of your evening, and how much of your data pack, a video site is allowed to take. The platform cannot lock your phone, but a handful of settings make the default behaviour calmer.

Autoplay off. By default the next video starts after a six-second countdown. The toggle at the top of the up-next column turns that off, and the choice is remembered in Settings.
Eco mode. Caps playback at 720p, which looks fine on a phone and uses far less data than 1080p.
Upload on Wi-Fi. Start big uploads on Wi-Fi; the upload is resumable, so a dropped connection does not restart it from zero.
Your phone’s own timer. Android’s digital wellbeing screen can cap the app or the browser per day, a harder limit than any website can offer.

If watching has stopped feeling like a choice, take that seriously. Tele-MANAS, the national mental health helpline, is free on 14416.

Younger Viewers: the 13+ Rule and Made-for-Kids Videos

An account needs a birth year that makes the person at least 13, and the register form refuses anything younger. Between 13 and 17 the account works normally except that the sensitive-content filter stays locked on; mature settings open at 18. Accounts that turn out to belong to children under 13 are removed.

Uploaders can mark a video as made for kids. Those videos have no comment section, so a child watching a cartoon or a craft tutorial never meets strangers under it. If a made-for-kids video is not actually for kids, report it under “Misleading or spam”. The checklist below is the online safety routine we suggest for a child’s phone.

A parents’ checklist for a child who watches on a shared or own phone
Check	Why it matters	Where
The account birth year is real	It decides whether the sensitive filter can ever be switched off	Settings → Account
Hide sensitive content is on	Keeps restricted videos out of feeds, search and shorts	Settings → Privacy (locked for under-18s)
Autoplay is off	Each video ends instead of rolling into the next	Up-next column toggle, or Settings
Watch history is on and shared	You can look through it together; pausing it hides the trail	Library → History
Comments are not used, or are supervised	Comments are the main place strangers appear	Comment box under a video
The phone’s daily limit is set	A hard cap no website setting can match	Android digital wellbeing / parental controls
Your child knows the Report button	A child who can report rarely feels trapped	Under every video and comment
No one asks them for codes	Account takeovers start with a six-digit code	Talk about it once; repeat it later

If a child has been contacted, pressured or threatened online, do not sort it out alone. Childline answers 1098 at any hour, and the cybercrime portal takes reports about content involving minors with priority.

Scams and Phishing That Use the 6E Club Name

The most common online safety problem does not happen on the site at all. It happens in a message: “Your 6E Club account will be deleted, confirm the code we just sent you.” The code is the six-digit email code or a password-reset link, and whoever types it into the scammer’s page hands over the account.

The rule has no exceptions: we never ask for your password, a login code or a reset link, by email, chat, phone or form. There is no phone helpline, no WhatsApp support number and no agent; support is by email from contact@6e.app and through the forms on this site. Nothing is paid for either: no paid verification, no premium tier and no earnings scheme, so any such offer is fake.

If you did share a code, change your password immediately in Settings, which also signs out every other device. If money was taken, report it on 1930 the same day. Read how to tell the real 6E Club from a copy for the checks that expose a copycat app or page, and the customer care page for account recovery steps.

Where to Get Help in India

Some online safety situations are bigger than a report button. These free national services handle them; none of them is run by us.

1930 and the cybercrime portal for financial fraud, extortion, sextortion, stalking and account takeovers. Call 1930 first when money has moved, because a bank freeze works best within hours, then file the full complaint at cybercrime.gov.in.
Childline 1098 for any child in danger or distress, including online grooming or threats.
Tele-MANAS 14416 for mental health support in Indian languages, free and confidential, described at the Tele-MANAS site.
The grievance route under the IT Rules 2021, which require platforms like this one to acknowledge a complaint within 24 hours and resolve it within 15 days. The 6E Club grievance team is reached through the contact page; the rules are published by the Ministry of Electronics and IT.

Creator Safety: Keeping Your Comments Healthy

Uploaders face a second layer of online safety: the comments under their own videos and the attention a public channel brings.

Comments on or off per video. Set it while uploading or later in the edit drawer.
Moderation in the studio. The comments page lists every comment across your videos; you can reply, delete, pin one to the top or heart it.
Block and report from the same menu. A deleted comment is gone, a blocked account cannot come back to your videos, a reported one is reviewed.

The channel guide walks through the whole creator studio, including the strikes page where you can see any report outcome against your videos and start an appeal.

Online Safety Habits That Take a Minute

Three online safety habits cover most of what goes wrong. Use a password you use nowhere else, so a leak on another site does not open this one. Treat any message that asks for a code as an attack, however urgent it sounds. And report early: a report takes thirty seconds and is the only thing that changes what the next viewer sees.

Parents and older siblings carry the rest. Sit through the history together now and then, keep autoplay off on a child’s account, and make sure the child knows that telling you about something nasty will never cost them the phone. Online safety fails most often when a young person hides a problem because they fear the punishment more than the problem.

Accounts are for people aged 13 and over; mature-content settings need 18+. Every video, comment and channel has a Report button, and reports are reviewed by people. Never share your password or a one-time code with anyone who contacts you in the name of 6E Club.

Questions People Ask

Do I need an account to report a video on 6E Club?

No. The Report button under every video works for signed-out visitors too. Pick a reason, say whether the problem is the whole video or a part of it, add a few words and, if you want to hear the outcome, an email address. Reporting a comment or a channel does need a signed-in account.

Can other people see which videos I liked?

No. A like adds one to the public count under the video, but the list of who liked it is private and never appears on your channel or anywhere else. Your favorites and your watch history are private as well. Only your public comments, public videos and public playlists appear under your name.

What happens after I report something?

The report goes into a queue that people review, not a machine. A video with five open reports is hidden automatically while it waits. The reviewer removes the content, restricts it to adults, or keeps it, and if you left an email you get the result. Either side can appeal once within six months.

How do I block someone on 6E Club?

Open the menu on their channel page or on one of their comments and choose Block. From then on their comments and replies stay out of your view and they cannot comment on your videos. Nobody is notified, and you can see and undo your blocks at any time in Settings.

Is 6E Club safe for a 13-year-old?

Accounts open at 13, and under-18 accounts keep Hide sensitive content switched on with no way to turn it off. Videos marked made for kids have no comments at all. Parents still make the difference to online safety: check the account birth year, go through the history together, turn autoplay off and keep the phone out of the bedroom at night.

Will 6E Club ever ask for my password or a login code?

Never. Nobody from the platform will call, message or email you for a password, a six-digit code or a reset link, and there is no phone helpline. Support happens by email from contact@6e.app and through the forms on the site. Anyone asking for a code in our name is trying to take over your account.

Final Word on Online Safety

Every control on this page is real, free and reachable in two taps: Report under every video and comment, Block on every channel and comment, the privacy and sensitive-content switches in Settings, autoplay and eco mode in the player, and the made-for-kids rule that keeps comments away from children’s videos. Nobody from the platform will ever ask for a code.

Online safety still needs you to use those controls and to keep the national helplines, 1930, 1098 and 14416, within reach for the problems that are bigger than a website. When something is not covered here, the FAQ hub and the privacy policy fill in the rest.
