Community Guidelines

Disagreement is allowed.

Curiosity is encouraged.

Respect is required.

You may question another person’s conclusions.

You may respectfully challenge an idea.

You may say that you strongly disagree.

You may decide that a difference makes someone incompatible with you.

You may not use disagreement as an excuse to harass, threaten, humiliate, stalk, or abuse another person.

Debate the idea.

Do not attack the human.

Project Red String is built for genuine human connections.

Do not:

• ·Impersonate another person.
• ·Pretend to be someone you are not.
• ·Use another person’s photographs as though they are your own.
• ·Create fake dating identities.
• ·Create accounts intended to deceive other users.
• ·Materially misrepresent your age or identity.
• ·Operate unauthorized bots or automated dating accounts.
• ·Create new accounts to evade a suspension, ban, or block.

Humor and personality are welcome.

Deception is not.

People use dating platforms for different reasons.

Be reasonably honest about what you are looking for.

Do not deliberately mislead someone about your intentions in order to manipulate, exploit, or obtain something from them.

Changing your mind is allowed.

Lying to gain someone’s trust is not.

Rabbit Holes are one of the things that make Project Red String different.

Users may explore unusual, controversial, mysterious, speculative, historical, scientific, paranormal, political, cultural, or unexplained topics.

Selecting a Rabbit Hole does not necessarily mean a person believes a particular claim.

Users may be believers, skeptics, somewhere in between, or simply curious.

Project Red String does not require users to reach the same conclusions.

Do not intentionally misrepresent another user’s curiosity as proof that they hold a belief they have not expressed.

You may disagree strongly.

You may not:

• ·Repeatedly insult someone because of their views.
• ·Target a person with degrading or dehumanizing abuse.
• ·Threaten someone for disagreeing with you.
• ·Encourage others to harass a user.
• ·Repeatedly contact someone who has clearly asked you to stop.
• ·Attempt to evade another user’s block.
• ·Publish private information in retaliation for a disagreement.

A conversation becoming heated does not remove these rules.

When a connection is not working, disconnect and move on.

Harassment and stalking are prohibited.

This includes:

• ·Repeated unwanted contact.
• ·Threatening messages.
• ·Sexual harassment.
• ·Intimidation.
• ·Following someone across accounts after being blocked.
• ·Coordinated harassment.
• ·Threatening to expose private information.
• ·Using information learned through Project Red String to intimidate someone offline.

If another user clearly tells you to stop contacting them, stop.

Do not use Project Red String to make credible threats of violence or encourage violence against another person.

Content that appears to present an imminent or serious safety risk may be removed and may result in immediate account restrictions.

Where appropriate or legally required, serious threats may be referred to relevant authorities.

Project Red String allows people with very different beliefs and backgrounds to use the service.

Targeted hateful or dehumanizing conduct against people based on protected characteristics is not permitted.

Users may discuss controversial social, religious, cultural, historical, or political subjects.

Discussion of an idea is different from attacking or degrading a person or group of people.

Context matters, but disagreement is not a license for targeted abuse.

Project Red String has zero interest in becoming somebody’s romance-scam headquarters.

Do not use the service to:

• ·Conduct romance scams.
• ·Solicit money through deception.
• ·Promote fraudulent investment opportunities.
• ·Request gift cards as part of a scam.
• ·Manipulate users into sending cryptocurrency.
• ·Obtain banking information or passwords.
• ·Run advance-fee schemes.
• ·Promote pyramid or similar fraudulent schemes.
• ·Send phishing links.
• ·Recruit users into fraudulent financial activity.

Never send money to someone merely because you met them through Project Red String.

If someone’s love language suddenly becomes cryptocurrency, proceed accordingly.

Project Red String is a dating and connection platform, not a cold-lead database.

Do not use it primarily to:

• ·Advertise unrelated businesses.
• ·Mass-message users.
• ·Recruit customers.
• ·Promote paid services through unsolicited messages.
• ·Collect contact information for marketing.
• ·Recruit users into unrelated commercial programs.

Authentically discussing what you do for work is fine.

Turning every match into a sales funnel is not.

However, you may not:

• ·Send unwanted sexually explicit content.

• ·Share intimate images without the depicted person’s consent.

Older photos, creative photos, filters, memes, pets, hobbies, and personality are fine when they do not materially mislead other users about who you are.

Do not use Project Red String to plan, facilitate, solicit, or promote serious illegal activity.

Project Red String may restrict content or accounts when reasonably necessary to address credible safety threats, illegal conduct, fraud, exploitation, or abuse.

Blocking means stop.

Do not:

• ·Create another account to contact someone who blocked you.
• ·Ask another user to contact the person on your behalf.
• ·Track down someone’s other accounts for the purpose of continuing unwanted contact.
• ·Attempt to circumvent technical blocking controls.

Nobody owes another user a conversation, explanation, date, response, or second chance.

If you encounter conduct that violates these guidelines, use Project Red String’s reporting tools when available.

Safety concerns may also be reported to:

projectredstring1124@gmail.com

When reporting something serious, provide enough information for us to understand the issue.

Depending on the situation, this may include:

• ·The account involved.
• ·What happened.
• ·Approximate date or time.
• ·Relevant screenshots or messages.
• ·Why you believe there is a safety concern.

Do not knowingly submit false reports in an attempt to punish another user.

Project Red String may review available information and take action based on the circumstances.

Possible actions include:

• ·No action when no violation is identified.
• ·A warning.
• ·Content removal.
• ·Feature restrictions.
• ·Reduced account visibility.
• ·Temporary suspension.
• ·Permanent account termination.
• ·Preservation of relevant information.
• ·Referral to appropriate authorities when required by law or reasonably necessary to address a serious threat.

Not every report will result in the action requested by the reporting user.

For privacy and safety reasons, Project Red String may not be able to disclose every detail of an investigation or action taken against another account.

Project Red String can provide tools, policies, moderation, and compatibility information.

It cannot replace personal judgment.

Users should remain cautious when communicating with people they have not met.

Pay attention to behavior that feels manipulative, threatening, inconsistent, financially motivated, or unsafe.

A Red String is a compatibility signal.

It is not a safety certification.

Project Red String may consider factors including:

• ·Severity of the conduct.
• ·Context.
• ·Whether conduct appears intentional.
• ·Repeated violations.
• ·Previous enforcement.
• ·Risk to other users.
• ·Credible safety concerns.
• ·Applicable legal obligations.

Severe conduct may result in immediate account restriction or termination.

Repeated lower-level violations may also result in account action.

If you believe your account was restricted or terminated in error, you may contact:

projectredstring1124@gmail.com

Include enough information for us to identify the account and understand your request.

Submitting an appeal does not guarantee that an enforcement decision will be reversed.

Project Red String is an early-stage platform.

These guidelines may change as the community grows, new features are introduced, or new safety concerns emerge.

Material updates may be communicated through the service, by email, or through another reasonable method.

Project Red String exists because interesting people do not always fit neatly into the same boxes.

You can believe different things.

You can ask weird questions.

You can be skeptical.

You can change your mind.

You can respectfully argue about whether we’re living in a simulation until the coffee shop closes.

Just remember there is a human being on the other side of the screen.

Different minds.

Same curiosity.
