JMeetups is a nonprofit Jewish dating platform built on the principle that safety, dignity, and respect come first. This page explains the controls we have in place to keep the community safe.

How profiles are approved

Every JMeetups profile is manually reviewed by our moderation team before it becomes visible to other members. We check that photos show a real person, are not heavily filtered or obscured, and contain no inappropriate or explicit content. Profiles that don't meet our content guidelines are rejected with a reason and may be resubmitted.

Every photo uploaded after approval — including replacement photos — goes through the same human review before it appears on the platform.

How we handle messages

JMeetups members can message each other once their profiles are approved. We do not proactively read every message between members. We do review:

• Messages that members report through our in-app reporting tools
• Messages brought to our attention by law enforcement or other lawful authorities
• Messages associated with accounts under active investigation for policy violations

Messages are stored encrypted at rest (AES-256) and are retained for up to 90 days from the date sent. Deleted messages are purged from our primary systems within 30 days, unless preserved under a legal hold.

Reporting another user

If another member sends you a message or has profile content that violates our community guidelines — harassment, threats, fake identity, inappropriate content, requests for money — you can report them directly from their profile or from a message thread. Reports are reviewed by our moderation team.

If you experience harassment or unwanted contact, you can also block or unmatch a user at any time from their profile.

What we report to authorities

JMeetups reports child sexual abuse material (CSAM) to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) CyberTipline whenever we obtain actual knowledge of it. We cooperate with law enforcement requests that comply with applicable law. See our Law Enforcement Guidelines for details.

Account actions we take

• Warning: a moderator-issued notice that behavior on the account violated our guidelines.
• Profile rejection: a profile or photo does not meet our content standards and is not published until corrected.
• Suspension: the account is temporarily disabled while we investigate.
• Ban: the account is permanently closed for repeated or serious violations.
• Removal & report to authorities: for content involving suspected illegal activity, we may preserve evidence and report to law enforcement in addition to closing the account.

What we don't do

• We do not sell or share members' personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.
• We do not use members' photos for advertising or training purposes.
• We do not allow commercial activity, fundraising, or off-platform solicitation through JMeetups.
