The policy says that when users publish anything in public and comment areas, such as chat, forums, group walls and personal posts, Roblox filters it and removes Personal Information like addresses, emails and phone numbers, phishing attempts, and offensive words or adult or suggestive content. It uses human and automated checking "to the best of our ability based on available technology" and says these systems are not 100% effective.
