How to Deal

If you see something, say something.


You know when someone’s crossed the line and when they do — we want to know about it because we want to help make Tinder the safest way to meet new people: You can report anyone on the app that makes you uncomfortable or violates our guidelines, has committed a serious crime, is listed on a sex offender registry, or you know from personal experiences who has committed such behaviors before. It’s an easy way to let us know that someone is acting inappropriately, and it’s confidential.

We’re here for you. We take harassment very seriously and, frankly, we don’t want it on Tinder. Here are some examples of why we ban people:

  • Racial slurs or other derogatory language

  • Sending threats or offensive messages to someone on and off the app

  • Harassing your matches on or off the app

  • Sending sexually explicit content on or off the app without your match’s consent

  • Sending spam or solicitation, including links to commercial websites or attempts to sell products or services
