Safety Center
PROJECT RED STRING
Dating for curious minds. Safety for actual humans.
Meeting someone new can be exciting. It also requires judgment.
Project Red String can provide compatibility information, communication tools, blocking, reporting, and safety resources.
It cannot guarantee another person’s identity, intentions, honesty, background, or behavior.
A Red String is a compatibility signal.
It is not a safety certification.
1.Protect Your Personal Information
You control how much personal information you share with another user.
Especially early in a conversation, consider keeping information such as the following private:
- ·Your home address.
- ·Your exact workplace.
- ·Your daily routine.
- ·Financial information.
- ·Account passwords.
- ·Government identification numbers.
- ·Information that could reveal your precise real-time location.
Project Red String should never require you to give another user your banking credentials or passwords.
2.Stay on the Platform When Practical
Scammers and abusive users may attempt to move conversations away from a dating platform quickly.
Moving to text, social media, or another messaging service is not automatically suspicious.
However, be cautious if someone aggressively pressures you to move the conversation elsewhere immediately, especially if other warning signs are present.
Keeping early communication on Project Red String when practical may make reporting problematic interactions easier.
3.Never Send Money
Do not send money, cryptocurrency, gift cards, banking credentials, account passwords, or financial access information to someone merely because you met them through Project Red String.
Common warning signs may include:
- ·Sudden emergencies.
- ·Requests for travel money.
- ·Medical emergencies requiring money.
- ·Investment opportunities.
- ·Cryptocurrency opportunities.
- ·Requests for gift cards.
- ·Claims that money is needed before you can meet.
- ·Repeated excuses explaining why video calls or meetings cannot happen.
Romance and financial pressure are a terrible compatibility metric.
4.Watch for Impersonation and Inconsistencies
Be cautious when someone’s identity, photographs, stories, location, or personal details appear inconsistent.
Warning signs alone do not prove that someone is deceptive.
Use your judgment.
If you believe an account is impersonating another person or operating fraudulently, report it.
5.First Meetings
When meeting someone for the first time, consider:
- ·Meeting in a public place.
- ·Telling a trusted person where you are going.
- ·Sharing your plans with someone you trust.
- ·Arranging your own transportation.
- ·Keeping control of your phone.
- ·Avoiding becoming impaired to the point that your judgment is compromised.
- ·Leaving if something feels wrong.
You do not owe someone the rest of a date because you agreed to meet them.
6.Consent
Consent should be voluntary and ongoing.
Agreeing to a date does not imply consent to sexual activity.
Past consent does not guarantee future consent.
Someone may change their mind.
Pressure, threats, coercion, intimidation, or exploitation are not acceptable.
7.Intimate Images
Think carefully before sending intimate images to anyone.
Never share another person’s intimate image without their consent.
Never threaten to share one.
If someone threatens to distribute or actually distributes intimate imagery without consent, preserve relevant evidence when it is safe to do so and report the incident.
Project Red String’s intimate-image reporting information is available at:
8.Blocking
You may block another user when blocking tools are available.
You do not need permission or approval from Project Red String to decide that you no longer want contact with someone.
Blocking means stop.
Attempting to evade another user’s block may violate our Community Guidelines.
9.Reporting
Report behavior involving:
- ·Threats.
- ·Harassment.
- ·Stalking.
- ·Impersonation.
- ·Fraud or scams.
- ·Requests for money connected to suspicious conduct.
- ·Nonconsensual intimate imagery.
- ·Sexual coercion.
- ·Suspected underage users.
- ·Serious safety concerns.
- ·Attempts to evade blocking.
Reporting information is available at:
10.Emergencies
Project Red String is not an emergency service.
If you believe you or another person is in immediate danger, contact appropriate local emergency services.
Do not wait for Project Red String to respond to an online report before seeking emergency assistance.
11.Trust Your Judgment
Compatibility technology cannot observe everything that matters in a human interaction.
Pay attention to behavior.
Someone can score highly on compatibility and still behave badly.
Someone can share your beliefs and still be unsafe.
Someone can disagree with you and still treat you exceptionally well.
Use Project Red String as one source of information — not as a replacement for your own judgment.
