Dating & Social Meet Safety

Tellvi makes it exciting to discover and meet genuine new people nearby. We want your connections to be empowering, consensual, and secure. Review these dating standards and safety tips before connecting.

1. Authenticity & Anti-Catfishing Standards

All dating and discovery profiles must feature genuine, recent photos of yourself. Using photos of celebrities, other people, or deceptive AI generations is strictly prohibited.

Users must be 18 years or older to access Dating and Social Meet features. Age verification may be requested.

2. Consent & Zero-Tolerance Harassment

Consent is mandatory in all conversations. Unsolicited explicit messages, non-consensual sexual photos, and persistent contact after being told "no" will result in immediate ban.

Extortion, blackmail, and threats to share private messages or media (sextortion) are illegal and will be reported directly to law enforcement.

3. Essential Real-World Meetup Safety Tips

  • Keep Early Conversations on Tellvi: Avoid giving out your home address, workplace, or financial information early on.
  • Meet in a Public Place: For your first few in-person dates, always meet in a populated, well-lit public venue (e.g. coffee shop, restaurant, public park).
  • Tell a Friend or Family Member: Let someone you trust know where you are going, who you are meeting, and when you expect to return.
  • Control Your Transportation: Drive yourself or arrange your own rideshare to and from the date.
  • Stay in Control of Your Drinks: Never leave food or beverages unattended.
  • Have questions or need to report a violation?

    Our Trust & Safety team is dedicated to reviewing reports and keeping Tellvi secure 24/7.
