Community Guidelines
Last updated: 28 September 2026
Flirty only works if people feel safe being themselves. These are the rules, in plain English. They're the same rules asTerms of Service §5, which is the version that binds — this page just says them the way a person would.
Break them and we may remove content, limit what you can do, suspend you, or close your account for good. Some things get you removed on the first offence.
You must be 18 or over
Flirty is an adults-only app. You need to be 18 to be here, and you must not help anyone under 18 get in. If you think an account belongs to someone under 18, report it — useChild safety as the reason. We'd much rather check and be wrong.
Be who you say you are
- Use your own photos. Not a model's, not a friend's, not someone you found online.
- One account, and it's yours. Don't impersonate anyone.
- Be honest about your age, who you are and what you're looking for. Being vague is fine; deceiving people isn't.
Keep it clean
Flirty is a dating app, not an adult-content platform. No pornography, no nudity, no sexually explicit content — not in your profile, not in Discover, not in stories, and not in private messages either. Profile and public content should be fine for anyone to see.
Anything that goes public is screened automatically before it appears. Screening isn't perfect, so if you see something that breaks these rules anywhere on Flirty, report it.
Never, under any circumstances
These end an account immediately, and we report them where the law requires:
- Any sexual content involving under-18s, or content that sexualises them. Zero tolerance, no exceptions, no context in which this is acceptable.
- Sharing intimate images of someone who didn't consent — including hidden-camera content, sexual extortion, and deepfakes made to deceive or humiliate.
- Terrorist content, or anything glorifying or inciting terrorism or violent extremism.
- Content encouraging or instructing on suicide, self-harm, or eating disorders, including pro-anorexia and pro-bulimia material.
- Real-world extreme violence, gore, or animal cruelty shared for shock value.
Treat people decently
- No harassment, threats, stalking, bullying, doxxing, intimidation, exploitation or blackmail.
- No hate or discrimination based on race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, disability, age, gender, gender identity or sexual orientation.
- A blocked or unmatched person has said no. Don't come back through another account.
Don't run a con
No scams, romance fraud, phishing, spam, bot accounts, fake engagement or coordinated inauthentic behaviour. No soliciting or offering commercial sex, trafficking, illegal goods or services, weapons, controlled substances, counterfeits or prescription medicines.
Nobody you meet on a dating app needs your money. Not for a flight, not for a customs fee, not for a medical bill, not for an investment closing today. If money comes up, stop and report it.
Don't use Flirty as a shopfront
No advertising, recruiting, data brokering or political campaigning without our written permission. Don't scrape, crawl, reverse engineer, attack or work around the app, security controls, rate limits, age checks, moderation or payments.
Respect other people's stuff
Don't post content you don't have the rights to, and don't infringe anyone's intellectual property, privacy or confidentiality. If you think your copyright is being infringed on Flirty, tell us and we'll investigate — we act on properly made reports, we don't ask you to go to court first.
Reporting, and what happens next
You can report any account, message or piece of content from inside the app, and block anyone at any time. Blocking removes someone from your experience; reporting is what stops them doing it to somebody else. If someone has crossed a line, do both.
Reports go to a real moderation queue and are read by a person. We won't give you a running commentary on what happens to another person's account, but your report is read. Depending on what we find we may remove content, restrict features, issue a warning, suspend or ban the account, preserve evidence, or contact the authorities. Where the law requires us to give notice, reasons or an appeal, we will.
What happens if you break the rules
Every confirmed violation is recorded against your account, and we tell you the rule involved and what happened. Depending on what we find and on your history, that can mean a warning, a temporary suspension, or a permanent ban. Repeated violations escalate, and older ones stop counting against you over time. You can see every violation on your record, the rule involved and what we sent you at any time in the app under Settings → Account status.
Some things lead straight to a permanent ban on the first confirmed violation: child safety, threats and violence, non-consensual or exploitative sexual content, terrorism and violent extremism, and scams. Only decisions confirmed by a person count — automated flags and unconfirmed reports never do. Two account checks are automatic: an account whose date of birth shows the person is under 18 is banned, and a restricted account that is deleted and signed up again gets the same restriction back. Both can be appealed.
Appeals
If we remove something of yours, suspend you or ban you, we tell you which rule was involved and why. You can appeal once per decision from inside the app — content decisions from your profile, account decisions from the restricted screen. Account appeals must be made within 30 days of the decision and are reviewed by a moderator who was not involved in the original decision. We aim to answer content appeals within 24 hours and account appeals within 7 days, by email and in the app. If an appeal is upheld the violation is removed from your record and anything it caused is lifted. While restricted you can still download a copy of your data or delete your account.
Unhappy with how we handled a report or a decision, or how we keep Flirty safe? Emailsupport@flirtyapp.com with “Complaint” in the subject line — you don't need an account — and we'll look again and tell you what we decided.
If you're in danger
These guidelines are about what happens on Flirty. If you or someone else is at immediate risk, contact your local emergency services first — then tell us, so we can act on the account.
These rules can change
We'll update this page when the app or the law changes. The date at the top tells you which version you're reading. For the full legal position see theTerms of Service andPrivacy Policy.
