Community Guidelines

Effective date: January 1, 2025 · Version 1.0

Our Community Values

FindBuddy is built on the idea that connecting with people around shared activities should be safe, fun, and inclusive. These guidelines exist to keep our community respectful and welcoming for everyone.

The Golden Rules

🤝

Be Respectful

Treat others the way you want to be treated. Disagreements happen, but hostility doesn't belong here.

Be Genuine

Use your real identity. Don't misrepresent who you are, your age, or your intentions.

🛡️

Keep It Safe

Don't share personal details like home addresses or financial information in public posts or early messages.

🎯

Stay On Topic

Post in the right category. Activity-based connection is our focus — keep posts relevant to real-world meetups.

🚫

No Spam or Ads

Don't use FindBuddy to promote businesses, sell products, or send unsolicited messages.

🌍
