  Guests cannot send links, which stops most scam and spam messages.

• Free, fair appeals

  Banned by mistake? Appeals are free and reviewed by a real person.

• Clear community rules

  Simple rules everyone agrees to before chatting: be respectful, nothing sexual, faces visible on video.

Read the full Community Rules or our guide on staying safe with strangers.
