Our Community Standards
These expectations foster respectful connections. They are practical guidelines, not legal advice.
- Consent is non-negotiable. Proceed only with clear, mutual agreement. Uncertainty means you should stop.
- Harassment is prohibited. Unwanted contact, threats, or pressure have no place here.
- No illegal material. We do not tolerate content involving minors or non-consensual acts. Report concerns directly to authorities.
- Present yourself authentically. Misleading profiles with fabricated details or stolen images erode trust for everyone.
- Honor privacy. Never share someone's personal information, conversations, or identifiable details without their explicit permission.
Five Privacy Habits
- Compartmentalize your activity: Use a separate browser profile, a dedicated email, and schedule specific times for dating to keep it distinct from your daily life.
- Silence notifications: Disable lock-screen previews and banner alerts for dating apps, especially in shared spaces. Utilize Do Not Disturb modes.
- Limit profile details: Avoid listing your workplace, precise neighborhood, or routine. Crop photos to remove identifiable backgrounds.
- Communicate with intention: Pressure to meet immediately, share intimate images, or compromise your boundaries is a clear warning. You can step away.
- Conduct monthly audits: Review app permissions, cloud backup settings, and any shared devices. A quick check prevents accidental exposure.
Meeting Someone: A Practical Checklist
1. Choose a Public Venue
Arrange your first meeting at a well-trafficked cafe or similar public spot. Avoid private homes until mutual comfort and respect are established.
2. Inform a Trusted Contact
Let a friend know your general plans - location and timeframe - without divulging private details about your date.
3. Control Your Transportation
Use your own ride or have a firm exit strategy. This ensures you can leave at any moment, independently.
4. Be Mindful of Substances
Stay alert enough to gauge your comfort and safety. Avoid accepting open drinks and monitor your own consumption closely.
5. Uphold Your Boundaries
Only agree to what feels right for you. You can change your mind at any time, and a respectful partner will understand.
6. Plan for Afterward
If anything feels unsettled, note relevant details. Block if necessary, and reach out to Support.
Communicating with Confidence
Establish Expectations
Mention your preferred pace and need for discretion early. This helps filter incompatible matches from the start.
Recognize Pressure Tactics
Requests for "verification," urgent financial stories, or immediate pushes to external messaging apps are common red flags.
End Conversations Cleanly
A simple, firm goodbye is enough. If someone persists, blocking is a reasonable step. You don't owe lengthy explanations.
Managing Photos and Identity
Remove Identifying Details
Scrutinize photos for workplace badges, distinctive tattoos, street signs, or car license plates that could reveal who you are.
Verify Profile Images
If someone's pictures seem overly polished or generic, a reverse image search can reveal if they're stolen or stock photos.
Audit Cloud Sync Settings
Disable automatic uploads from your camera roll to shared cloud accounts to prevent personal photos from appearing unexpectedly.
