Short version: be the kind of person you would want your sister or your brother to meet here.
Be honest
Your age, your marital status, whether you have children, whether you are already married — all of it, upfront. Discovering a hidden marriage three months in is the single most damaging thing that happens on platforms like this, and it is the one we act on fastest.
Be respectful
No pressure for photos. No pressure to move to WhatsApp before a family is involved. No contacting someone who has declined you. A decline is an answer, not an opening position.
Keep it modest
Photos should be ones you would be comfortable showing an elder. Automated moderation checks every upload, and a human reviews anything reported.
Protect each other’s privacy
Do not screenshot conversations and share them. Do not repost someone’s photos. Do not pass on what someone told you in confidence.
Never ask for money
Nobody genuine will ask you for money, a loan, a gift card, or help with a visa fee. If someone does, report them — do not argue with them.
What happens when someone breaches this
- A first, minor breach usually gets a warning and the content removed.
- Harassment, scam attempts, fake profiles and undisclosed marriages get an immediate ban.
- Anything suggesting a minor is on the platform is removed at once.
Reporting
Reporting is free, takes seconds, and is never revealed to the person reported. Blocking is instant and severs everything in both directions. Use them — you are not being dramatic.
