Chinese-owned social media platform TikTok said it had reinstated the account of pro-life group Live Action, after Live Action announced Friday that it had been permanently banned, without explanation.

National Review reports the social media platform received a lot of backlash after Live Action said they received notice that they were, “Permanently banned due to multiple Community Guidelines violations.”

In a statement, TikTok later said, “Following a review, we have determined that there were no violations of our Community Guidelines, and the issue was the result of a human error by a moderator.
