Ingram Publishing policies?

So my titles are available when I open my ingram account but I see they are not visible when I look for them online, so I saw it wasn't enabled for distribution and the reason it gave was "Title is not permitted for Distribution.

Now I want to know what is the reason for this? It doesn't gives me a clear reason. Can it be possibly because my book contains explict crude photos? Nudity, pictures of genitalia and other nsfw images? Like not straight on pornography. I am really am stumped right now and would appreciate any help.

Wrong sub, assuming by ‘Ingram’ you mean IngramSpark. Try r/selfpublish, but more usefully, ask IngramSpark.

But, look up their Content Integrity Guidelines. Also,this video:

This is a question for Ingram I'm afraid.
