Every score on this site carries one consent rule: undress tools may be used only on your own photos or on photos of consenting adults aged 18 or older. Clothoff UK is a review catalogue. It does not operate a generator, accept uploads, process images, or store images; every test runs on the reviewed provider's own service with editorial control photos. Publishing an intimate image of a real person without consent is an offence under section 66B of the Sexual Offences Act 2003, and creating one is a separate offence under section 66E since 6 February 2026; both cover digitally created or altered images. A reviewed tool must publish a consent rule, a working removal route, and a retention limit; the results feed the privacy criterion, which carries 30 of 100 points in how we rate . Tools that market impersonation of identifiable people, ignore removal requests, or lack an age gate are refused a review and listed in the transparency report . Anyone depicted in a non-consensual image can use the NCII report form (48-hour response target) and the external hash-matching services listed in section 5. All synthetic sample images on this site are labelled under the AI Content Policy , which follows the transparency duties of EU AI Act Article 50. ## What does «1.
