Before a chat starts

• Adults only. Everyone confirms they are 18 or older before their first chat.
• Real people. A "verify you're human" check, confirmed by our server with Cloudflare, keeps bots and scripts out.
• No VPNs or proxies. They are how banned people try to come back.

During a video chat

• Blur until you both tap Show. On by default: your video and theirs stay blurred until both of you choose to see each other. The blur is applied in your own browser before your video is sent, so the other person never receives a clear picture before you agree.
• Hide your face. Blur your face, or wear a cartoon avatar that follows your head. If your face can't be found, your whole picture is hidden — never shown clear.
• Nudity check. Your browser checks the stranger's video and blurs it if it looks explicit. For people who have been reported, our server also checks occasional stills of their video with an AI safety model; flagged stills are kept for moderators and everything else is thrown away at once.
• Data saver. On a weak connection video pauses and the call carries on as voice.
• Encrypted. Video and voice calls use WebRTC, which encrypts media end to end between the two browsers. Text goes through our server over an encrypted connection and is not stored — unless it is part of a report.

In every chat

• No links or phone numbers. They are removed before delivery — that is how scams and grooming move a chat off the site. Abusive words, including romanised Hindi, are masked.
• Automatic mute. Someone who keeps breaking these rules is muted for a while.
• Trusted badge. People who chat regularly without being reported earn it, and can choose to meet only other trusted people.
• Repeat offenders are kept apart. People reported by several others are only matched with each other and are kept out of voice rooms.
• Block. Someone you block is never matched with you or put in your voice room again.

When you report someone

1. Pick what happened, and add a few words if you like. Reports are anonymous — the person is not told.
2. The last messages of the chat are attached automatically, straight from our server, so nobody can fake them. In a video chat you can also attach a still of their video; only moderators see it, and it is deleted after 30 days.
3. Reports about minors and nudity are reviewed first. A person reported as under 18 by a trusted user, or by people on two different networks, is suspended immediately while a moderator looks.
4. When enough different people — on different networks — report the same person, they are banned automatically for a short time. A single group of friends cannot trigger this.

What happens to people who break the rules

Penalties climb with each offence, and are forgotten after 90 days without another:

warning → 1 hour → 24 hours → 7 days → permanent ban

The person is always told why. Anyone banned can appeal once from the page they see, and a moderator reads every appeal. An appeal that is accepted lifts the ban and removes the strike.
