Viva Social — Community Guidelines

Effective: 2026-08-13

Viva Social exists so people can make real plans. These guidelines keep the platform safe and useful. Violations result in warnings, bans, or removal from the platform — at our sole discretion.

1. Be yourself

• One real photo, of you, on your primary slot. Optional ID and selfie verification protects everyone.
• No celebrities, fictional characters, or AI-generated faces in your primary photo.
• No group shots as your primary photo. Other people in your gallery is fine if they're clearly not the subject.

2. Be honest

• Use your real first name.
• Don't lie about your age. We verify DOB at signup; misrepresentation is grounds for permanent ban.
• Don't lie about your gender or orientation.

3. Be safe

• Meet in public. The whole point is dinner — pick a restaurant.
• Use the Share plans with a friend feature. One tap sends your match's first name, photo, venue, and time to someone you trust.
• If someone makes you uncomfortable, block or report them. We review every report.

4. Be appropriate

• No nudity. Sexually explicit images are screened server-side: chat images are blocked before delivery, and profile photos are scanned after upload and removed if they fail or are reported.
• No solicitation. Prostitution, escort services, "sugar" arrangements, and similar are not allowed.
• No advertising or business promotion. Viva Social is not a business networking app.
• No harassment. Repeated unwanted contact, slurs, threats, or hate speech result in immediate ban.
• No spam. Mass invites, copy-paste DMs, and bots are not allowed.

5. Be 18+

• You must be 18 or older. We verify DOB at signup.
• If you encounter a user you believe is under 18, report them with category "Underage." We act within 24 hours.

6. Be respectful with photos

• Don't upload photos of other people (besides yourself) without their consent.
• Don't share screenshots of other users' chats, profiles, or photos outside the app.
• Don't reverse-image-search someone you matched with to identify them off-app.

7. Be a good guest at venues

• Don't no-show. If plans change, send a message — the chat is unlocked for a reason.
• Tip your server.

8. Reporting

Tap the (…) menu on any profile or chat. Pick a category:

• Fake profile — impersonation, stolen photos
• Inappropriate photo — nudity, hate symbols, violence
• Harassment — slurs, threats, repeated unwanted contact
• No-show — they confirmed and didn't appear
• Safety concern — feels unsafe, suspicious behaviour
• Spam — promoting business, mass DMs
• Underage — they appear to be under 18
• Child safety — sexual content or contact involving a minor. Reviewed ahead of everything else; see our Child Safety Standards
• Other — describe the issue

Reports are reviewed by our trust & safety team within 24 hours. We may contact you for clarification.

9. Consequences

We may skip steps for severe violations.
