HYM Safety Tips


At Have You Met (HYM), we prioritize your safety and well-being. While forming meaningful connections is at the heart of our app, it’s essential to take steps to protect yourself, both online and during in-person meetings. Follow these tips to help create a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable dating experience.


Online Safety


Never Send Money or Share Financial Information
-Avoid Scams: Never send money or share banking details with anyone you meet online, no matter how convincing the reason. If anyone asks you for financial assistance, report it to us immediately.

Protect Your Personal Information
- Privacy First: Keep sensitive information like your home address, workplace, or daily routines private. Avoid sharing specific details on your profile.

Report Suspicious Behavior
- Enforce Community Standards: If someone exhibits inappropriate behavior, requests money, harasses you, or makes threats, report them using our app’s reporting feature or contact our support team immediately.

Secure Your Account
- Passwords and Logins: Use strong, unique passwords for your account. Be cautious when accessing HYM on public or shared computers. Never share your login information or verification codes with others.


Meeting in Person

Inform Friends or Family
- Share Your Plans: Let a friend or family member know where you're going and who you're meeting. Keep your phone charged and nearby in case you need it.

Control Your Transportation
- Independent Travel: Arrange your own transportation to and from the date, whether by car, taxi, or rideshare. This ensures that you can leave at any time if you feel uncomfortable.

Know Your Limits
- Mindful Consumption: Be conscious of your alcohol or substance intake during the date to keep a clear head. Don’t feel pressured to consume more than you’re comfortable with.

Stay Vigilant with Drinks and Belongings
- Stay Alert: Keep an eye on your personal items and drinks at all times. Only accept drinks that are served directly from the bar or your server to avoid any tampering.

Trust Your Instincts
- Leave If You Feel Uncomfortable: If something feels off, it’s okay to end the date early. Your safety always comes first.
