Staying safe

What this platform does for you

• Your phone number, email and exact address are never shown on a biodata. They become visible only after you accept a proposal.
• A guardian can be involved from the start, and their involvement is recorded rather than claimed.
• Every biodata is read by a person before it is published.
• Verification badges say what was actually checked — not that someone is trustworthy.

What to be careful about

• Nobody sincere will ask you for money. Not for a visa, a ticket, a medical bill or an emergency. This is the single most common way people are harmed here, and the request is always urgent and always plausible.
• Be slow to move the conversation somewhere private. Pressure to switch to a personal number or another app early, before families have spoken, is worth noticing.
• Reluctance to involve your family or theirs is a signal in itself. So is a refusal to let a guardian join the discussion.
• Details that shift — age, work, marital status, where they live — are worth asking about directly.

Meeting in person

• Bring your mahram or guardian. This is the norm, and nobody sincere will object to it.
• Meet somewhere public, in daylight, the first several times.
• Tell someone where you are going and when you expect to be back.
• Arrange your own transport, both ways.

Blocking someone

Blocking is silent and works both ways. Once you block someone, neither of you can see the other, any live proposal or discussion between you ends, and they cannot propose to you again.

They are never told. Nobody receives a notice that they have been blocked, because telling someone is exactly what gives them a reason to open a second account.

Blocking is not reporting, and one does not do the other. Blocking says you do not want contact. Reporting says someone is doing harm, and it is the only one that reaches a moderator. If someone has behaved badly, please do both — otherwise the next person meets the same behaviour with nothing on record.

Marking a profile "not interested" is different again. It removes them from your own results and nothing more: it does not hide you from them, and it does not stop them proposing. It is for tidying, not for stepping away from someone.

Reporting someone

A report goes to a person, not a machine. Automated signals can order the queue, but a human decides, records why, and the decision can be appealed.

The person you report is not told who reported them.

What you can report

• Pretending to be someone else
• A biodata that is not truthful
• Marital status is not as stated
• An existing marriage that was not disclosed
• Photographs that are not of them
• Harassment
• Inappropriate or immodest communication
• A scam
• Asking for money
• Offensive content
• Misuse of private photographs
• Impersonating a real person
• Spam
• Threatening behaviour
• Something else
