Community Guidelines

These Guidelines apply to all user content and conduct on Dot., including profiles, photos, messages, chat, and community.

Respect each other's consent and boundaries

Unwanted sexual advances, repeated contact, pressure to meet or share photos or contact details, harassment, threats, and stalking are prohibited. Previous matching, conversation, or meetings do not imply consent to later contact or sexual activity.

Impersonation, hate, and outing are not allowed

Impersonation, misuse of others’ information, false profiles, hate, discrimination, outing, unauthorized collection or sharing of others’ photos, conversations, or personal data, and copyright or other rights violations are prohibited. Do not disclose or threaten to disclose someone’s sexual orientation, gender identity, or use of Dot. without their consent.

Sexual and exploitative content is restricted

General conversation about sexual topics is not prohibited outright. However, for the safety of other users and in accordance with our operating policies and applicable law, the following content and conduct are not allowed.

  • Obscene content, such as photos or videos that explicitly depict sexual acts or genitals
  • Sexual images or videos filmed, produced, or shared without the consent of the person concerned
  • Non-consensual sexual composites, such as sexual images or videos synthesized using another person's face
  • Threatening someone with the disclosure of sexual images or videos in order to demand money, further content, or sexual acts
  • Content or conduct intended for sexual exploitation or coercion
  • Saving, redistributing, or selling another person's sexual content without permission

Matters relating to child and youth sexual exploitation material and child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE) follow the separate Child Safety Standards.

Illegal, dangerous, and commercial use is prohibited

The following content and conduct are not allowed.

  • Proposing, demanding, or arranging prostitution or unlawful meetings or transactions
  • Producing, possessing, requesting, posting, or sharing illegal content such as illegally filmed material or child and youth sexual exploitation material

  • Any conduct that violates applicable law or significantly harms the safety of other users

Use community anonymity responsibly

  1. [Anonymity] Community posts and comments are shown to other users anonymously. Being anonymous does not mean these Guidelines do not apply.

    Where it is necessary to handle a report, dispute, or safety issue, or to take measures under applicable law, the Dot. operations team may identify the author to the extent required.

  2. [Posts] Posts that attack or mock a specific person, disclose personal information, contain illegal or harmful content, or amount to flooding, spam, or advertising may be restricted.
  3. [External contact and links] To prevent harm to users such as spam, fraud, and leaks of personal information, the posting of certain external links and contact methods, including open-chat invitations, Telegram links, and shortened URLs, may be restricted.
  4. [Operation and filtering] To reduce the visibility of content that violates applicable law, these Guidelines, or the Terms of Service, the Company may apply automated filters, report review, or review by operators, to the extent necessary.

Boards work a little differently

The same prohibited-conduct rules apply to every board.

  1. [Diary] Do not disclose others’ identities or private lives.
  2. [19+] Discussions of sex, relationships, and sexual health are allowed. Pornographic, non-consensual, or exploitative content, sexual coercion, and solicitation of sexual encounters are not allowed.
  3. [Age, region, interests] Only members who meet the conditions may use these boards. Access is restricted when conditions change; existing posts remain.

If something is wrong, report or block

Users may report content or users and block others in the app. Reporting automatically blocks the other user; blocking is not directly disclosed to them.

The Company prioritizes urgent safety concerns. Violations may result in content or account restrictions according to severity, repetition, and potential harm; urgent action may be taken first. Types of measures are in the Terms of Service. False or malicious repeated reports may also lead to restrictions. Users may request review through customer support.

Customer support

Inquiries about reporting, safety, and infringement of rights within the Service can be submitted to the customer support team below.

Matters not addressed in these Guidelines are governed by the Dot. Terms of Service, the Child Safety Standards, and applicable law.

Addendum

These Community Guidelines take effect on 1 October 2026.
