Before You Meet

Take your time.

Get to know someone through the app before deciding to meet in person.

Plan Your First Date Safely

Choose a public place.

Step 3

Protect Your Personal Information

Your privacy matters.

Avoid sharing sensitive information such as:

Home address
Passwords or OTPs
Bank or payment details
Government ID numbers
Private photographs you don't want shared
Real-time location with someone you don't trust

Remember: You never owe anyone personal information.

Step 4

Trust Your Instincts

If something feels wrong, you can leave.

You don't need to continue a conversation or date just because you matched.

If someone makes you uncomfortable:

Stop all further contact instantly.

Your safety is more important than being polite.

Watch for Red Flags

Be careful if someone:

Tap any flag you've noticed in a conversation.
