Save and categorize content based on your preferences.
We provide flexible content filters that let you offer the type of content that's the best fit
for your users. Our filters are designed to map to the Motion Picture Association (MPA). It's
important to note, though, that we don't surface the type of nudity that can be found in R-rated
films. If you become aware of such content, inform us immediately by contacting
support@tenor.com.
