Dogging Dates guidance

Community Standards

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.

Adults only

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 clear

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.

Respect identity and boundaries

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.

Protect private information

Do not publish or redistribute another person’s profile, messages, images, workplace, address, vehicle details, legal name, contact information, or live location without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.

Be authentic and avoid financial activity

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.

Keep activity lawful

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.

Reporting and enforcement

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.
