Community Guidelines

Last updated: February 17, 2026

Mate is a community built on kindness, respect, and genuine connections. To ensure a safe and positive experience for everyone, we ask you to follow these guidelines.

1. Be Respectful

Treat others the way you want to be treated. Harassment, bullying, and hate speech are strictly prohibited. We have a zero-tolerance policy for abusive behavior.

2. Be Yourself

Upload your own photos and provide accurate information. Impersonation and fake profiles undermine the trust of our community and will be removed.

3. Safety First

Do not share personal financial information or send money to other users. Report any suspicious activity immediately through the app's reporting features.

4. No Solicitation

Mate is for dating and making friends, not for selling goods, services, or promoting other businesses. Accounts used for commercial purposes will be banned.

5. Photo Guidelines

Please do not upload nudity, violent content, or photos of minors. Keep your content appropriate for a general audience.

6. Reporting Violations

If you see something that violates these guidelines, please report it. We review all reports and take appropriate action to keep our community safe.

Failure to follow these guidelines may result in the suspension or permanent banning of your account. Let's make Mate a great place for everyone!
