Community Guidelines

Draft. This text shows the planned structure of the Community Guidelines, not their final wording.

1. What this is about

anyup brings people together who meet in real life, from coffee to a hike. anyup is not a dating app. A date can come out of it, but that is not the app’s purpose. These guidelines apply to your profile, your activities, and every message in the chat. Hosts are users like you; anyup does not organize any activity itself.

2. Who can use anyup

• Minimum age 18
• One account per person
• Truthful information for first name, age, and gender
• Your identity is verified: with an ID and a selfie, or through the path “confirmed by people” (five confirmations from hosts you have already met). Someone confirmed this way may send requests and write in chats, but not host.
• Your main photo shows you, clearly recognizable, without text. It shows no child and no nudity.

3. Prohibited behavior

The following is not allowed on anyup:

• Harassment or insults
• Violence or dangerous behavior, including threats of it
• Discrimination or hatred against a person or group
• Sexual content or nudity
• Spam, advertising, or fraud
• Faking an identity or your age, including with someone else’s photo
• Using anyup if you are under 18
• Anything else that harms or endangers others

In addition:

• Commercial offers only through a business account, never through a regular profile
• No activity that serves an illegal purpose
• Do not pass on the exact meeting point or other data from the app to people who have no access to it there
• Do not create a new account to get around a suspension

4. Safety at meetups

For a first meetup, a public place is usually the better choice. You only see the exact meeting point once your participation is accepted; before that, the map shows only a point nearby, offset by 200 to 500 meters. Tell someone where you are going, and get there on your own. You may leave an activity at any time, without having to explain yourself.

In an emergency, call the police (117), the ambulance (144), or the European emergency number (112). anyup is not an emergency service and cannot help in an acute situation. These guidelines are not a substitute for your own judgment.

5. Reporting and blocking

You can report profiles, photos, activities, and messages, and block other users. People who report stay anonymous to the reported person; they never learn who reported them. A single report never triggers a measure automatically. Every case is reviewed by a human.

Blocking works in both directions: afterwards you no longer see each other, not on the map, not in profiles, not in activities. If you are both accepted into an ongoing activity, that participation stays as is until it ends; the seat, meeting point, and chat do not change for anyone.

6. Consequences for violations

Possible measures are removing content, a temporary restriction of 7 or 30 days, or an indefinite account suspension. Removed content can be restored. Every measure is decided by a human, never automatically; it is justified, documented, and can be lifted.

If you disagree with a measure, you can appeal through support in the app. This also works while your account is suspended.

7. Questions and contact

Which route fits which request is explained on the support page. If you do not have an account, you can reach us using the details in the legal notice.
