Every member is expected to protect consent, privacy, dignity, and lawful participation. These standards apply to profiles, messages, photographs, meetings, and any interaction that begins through the service.
Only adults aged 18 or older may use the service. Members must not create an account for, contact, depict, impersonate, recruit, or facilitate access for anyone under 18. Any concern about underage access should be reported immediately.
Consent must be active, informed, specific, and reversible. Agreement to message does not imply agreement to share images, meet, watch, touch, record, or take part in sexual activity. Every change needs a new answer.
Pressure, persistence after a decline, deception about who will attend, impairment, threats, and ignoring a stop request are incompatible with the community. When consent is unclear, stop.
Members must communicate without harassment, discrimination, humiliation, or entitlement. A profile preference is not an invitation to insult people outside that preference. Couples and individuals have equal rights to set limits and end contact.
Do not publish or redistribute another person’s profile, messages, images, workplace, address, vehicle details, legal name, contact information, or live location without explicit permission.
Recording is prohibited unless every identifiable adult gives specific consent beforehand. Permission to create an image is separate from permission to store, send, post, or reuse it.
Do not impersonate another person, use stolen images, misrepresent who will attend, send malicious links, request money, sell access, solicit financial details, or use the service for blackmail or fraud.
Do not involve members of the public without consent, trespass, expose others to sexual conduct, obstruct access, or use prohibited locations. A location mentioned online is not proof that access or conduct there is lawful.
Members should report suspected breaches through the available account reporting tools. Depending on severity and available evidence, action may include content removal, warnings, restrictions, suspension, account closure, preservation of relevant records, or contact with appropriate authorities.
