Guidelines
Stringly Community Guidelines
Stringly exists to make real connections possible — built on trust, respect, and authenticity.
Every person on Stringly deserves a safe, kind, and genuine experience.
These guidelines outline what’s expected from everyone using Stringly and how we keep our community protected.
1. Our Core Values
At Stringly, we believe that:
-
Real people deserve real respect.
-
Consent, honesty, and safety come before everything else.
-
Technology should make connection easier, never exploit it.
By using Stringly, you agree to treat others with the same care you expect in return — both on and off the platform.
2. Profile Guidelines
Age:
You must be at least 18 years old to use Stringly. We may request age verification at any time to ensure community safety.
Profile Photos:
Show your authentic self. Your primary photo must clearly show your face. We don’t allow:
-
Photos containing nudity or sexually explicit imagery
-
Blurred or AI-generated faces that obscure your identity
-
Images of children alone or any minors in suggestive poses
-
Group or meme photos as the only profile image
Usernames:
Your username should reflect your real identity or a name you use regularly.
Do not use celebrity names, brands, or offensive language.
3. Content and Conduct
Respectful Interaction:
Be kind. Disrespectful, harassing, or intimidating behavior is never allowed.
This includes unsolicited sexual remarks, name-calling, bullying, or emotional manipulation.
Nudity and Sexual Content:
We do not permit nude or sexually explicit images or videos.
Stringly is a space to build genuine connections — not a platform for adult content or commercial sexual services.
Authenticity:
Fake profiles, impersonation, and misrepresentation (of name, age, gender, or intent) are strictly prohibited.
Our AI systems help detect non-human or misleading activity, but authenticity starts with you.
Hate or Discrimination:
Stringly is for everyone.
Any content or conduct promoting hate, dehumanization, or exclusion based on race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, disability, or identity will result in immediate removal.
Violence and Exploitation:
Threats, physical harm, stalking, or any promotion of violence — including implied — are not tolerated.
We also strictly prohibit human trafficking, coercion, or sharing of non-consensual sexual content.
Scams and Solicitation:
Do not use Stringly for financial gain, cryptocurrency solicitation, or fundraising.
We remove accounts found attempting to defraud, mislead, or request money or gifts.
Substances and Illegal Activity:
The sale or promotion of drugs, weapons, or illegal goods is not allowed.
Mentions of alcohol or smoking must remain appropriate and non-promotional.
4. AI Usage and Profile Screening
Stringly uses AI to keep the platform real and secure.
Our AI systems help detect fake profiles, nudity, and unsafe content before it reaches users — but human review is always part of the process.
If you believe content was wrongly flagged, you can appeal through our in-app support form.
5. Mental Health and Well-Being
We care deeply about our community.
Do not share or promote content that encourages self-harm, eating disorders, or suicide.
If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out for help — we provide mental health resources in-app and on our Safety Center page.
6. Platform Integrity
-
Do not use bots, scripts, or automated tools to interact with Stringly.
-
Do not create multiple or backup accounts to bypass restrictions.
-
Do not exploit or reverse-engineer the app.
Violations of these principles may lead to suspension or permanent ban.
7. Reporting and Safety
You are our first line of defense.
If you see behavior or content that violates these guidelines, report it through the in-app “Report” button or email safety@stringly.ai.
We review all reports carefully and take appropriate action.
Reporting should never be used to target others unfairly.
False reports made to harass or silence others can result in account action.
8. Enforcement
Depending on the nature of the violation, we may:
-
Remove the violating content
-
Temporarily restrict or suspend accounts
-
Permanently ban repeat or serious offenders
-
Work with relevant authorities in severe cases
We evaluate each situation carefully to maintain fairness and safety for all users.
9. Off-Platform Conduct
Respect extends beyond Stringly.
Harassment, abuse, or harm that happens during in-person meetups, on other platforms, or via external messages can also lead to account removal if reported to us.
10. Appeals and Support
If your account is restricted or content removed, you can contact our team for review at support@stringly.ai.
We aim to respond within 72 hours.
11. Continuous Improvement
Stringly evolves with its community.
We regularly update these guidelines as we learn and grow together — always guided by our mission to make dating safe, human, and real.
