Our Community Standards

These expectations foster respectful interaction, online and off. They’re built on mutual respect, not legal jargon.

  1. Consent is non-negotiable. Proceed only with clear, continuous agreement from all parties. Uncertainty means you stop.
  2. Harassment has no place. Continued contact after being asked to stop, issuing threats, or pressuring for intimacy is unacceptable.
  3. Exploitation is prohibited. We have zero tolerance for content involving minors or non-consensual acts. Suspected illegal activity should be reported to authorities.
  4. Authenticity builds trust. Profiles with fabricated details, stolen photos, or deceptive motives undermine the community. We address these in our resources.
  5. Privacy is paramount. Do not share someone’s personal information, screenshots, or identifiable details without their explicit permission.

Five Daily Privacy Habits

  • Create a separate space: Use a dedicated browser profile, a distinct email address, and specific times for dating activity to keep it separate from your personal and professional life.
  • Manage your notifications: Disable lock-screen previews and banner alerts for dating apps, especially in shared living or work spaces.
  • Limit profile details: Avoid listing your workplace, exact neighborhood, or daily routine. Crop photos to remove identifiable landmarks or personal items.
  • Communicate with clarity: Urgent demands to meet, send explicit content, or justify your interest are red flags. You don’t need to negotiate your comfort.
  • Conduct monthly reviews: Check app permissions, cloud backup settings, and any shared device access. A quick audit can prevent unintended exposure.

A Pre-Meeting Checklist

1. Choose a Public Venue

Arrange first meetings in a well-trafficked spot like a café. Visiting a private home requires trust built over several interactions.

2. Inform a Trusted Contact

Let a friend know your general plans and location without sharing intimate details about your date or the platform you’re using.

3. Control Your Transportation

Use your own ride or a reliable service. This allows you to leave immediately if you feel uneasy, without depending on your date.

4. Be Mindful of Substances

Stay alert enough to assess the situation. Avoid accepting pre-opened drinks and monitor your own consumption.

5. Define Intimacy Early

Only agree to what you genuinely want. You can withdraw consent at any moment; a respectful partner will acknowledge this without debate.

6. Plan Your Aftercare

If an interaction felt off, note relevant details for your records, use blocking features if needed, and reach out to Support.

Managing Conversations

Establish Expectations

Briefly state your preferences for discretion and pacing early in a chat. This helps identify incompatible matches quickly.

Recognize Pressure Tactics

Immediate requests for financial help, demands for verification photos, or pushing to move off-platform are common red flags.

End Conversations Firmly

A simple, direct goodbye is enough. If someone persists after you’ve said no, blocking them is a reasonable step for your comfort.

Managing Your Digital Identity

Scrub Identifying Details

Check photos for work badges, distinctive tattoos, visible license plates, or house numbers that could reveal your identity to someone who knows you.

Verify Profile Images

If someone’s pictures seem overly generic or professional, a reverse image search can often reveal if they’re stolen from stock photo sites or other profiles.

Audit Your Cloud Sync

Ensure photos taken for your dating profile do not automatically upload to a cloud account shared with family or partners.
