TikTok has released its Q4 2025 Community Guidelines Enforcement Report, highlighting its continuous commitment to fostering a safe and trusted space for its users.

In the fourth quarter of 2025, TikTok removed 820,552 videos in Kenya for violating its
Community Guidelines. 99.9% of these videos were proactively removed before anyone
reported them, while 98.4% were taken down within 24 hours of posting. These figures
underscore TikTok’s continued investment in advanced detection systems and rapid
response mechanisms designed to limit the spread of harmful content.


Additionally, TikTok banned 108,752 accounts in Kenya for policy violations. A significant portion of these , 93,704 accounts, were suspected of being accounts aged below 13, which is a violation of our rules. This highlights the platform’s commitment to protection of younger users online.

Globally, TikTok removed a total of 175,302,085 videos during the quarter, representing
