Community Guidelines

Welcome to SwingersHub! Being part of our global community means that you have a commitment from us to help ensure that you feel welcomed, safe, and free to be yourself.

When you’re part of a community in which you’re free to be yourself, it also asks that you be responsible for your behavior and actions. When each member takes responsibility for their behaviour, it creates an enjoyable and safe experience for all. Being successful on SwingersHub means that your behaviours are aligned with the four pillars of standard conduct:

• Be Kind
• Be Respectful
• Be Safe
• Be Yourself

BE KIND

Champion kindness in all of your interactions. Treat others how you expect to be treated.

HARASSMENT

Don’t be rude. Do not bully, intimidate, defame, harass or stalk other members. SwingersHub has a zero tolerance policy for abuse. Reports of harassment, intimidation and assault are taken very seriously. If someone blocks you, do not attempt to circumvent the block feature or try to communicate with them. Just stop.

VIOLENCE AND PHYSICAL HARM

You should never threaten to harm anyone through your words or physical actions. Inciting any form of physical or mental harm will not be tolerated. Inclusive of this, any content depicting violence, graphic or gory content is not allowed and will result in your account being moderated and may lead to your account being permanently banned.

DISCRIMINATORY BEHAVIOUR & HATE SPEECH

You should be respectful in every interaction with other members. There is no place in our community for hate speech, racism, or bigotry towards any individual or group, and will result in your account being permanently banned.

BE KIND ON YOUR SWINGERSHUB PROFILE

Your profile should not contain content that is violent, abusive, rude, or defamatory. If you’re looking for some tips on how to craft a great dating profile that reflects who you really are, you can find them here.

BE KIND IN THE MESSAGES YOU SEND

Your messages to other members should always be kind. If your message is reported by another member, the offense will be investigated. Serious offenses will result in your account being banned.

BE RESPECTFUL

The foundation of all great relationships is respect. Lead with it.

NUDITY/SEXUAL CONTENT

Do not upload content that contains any nudity, sexually explicit or pornographic content to SwingersHub.

COPYRIGHT AND TRADEMARK INFRINGEMENT

You should not post content that violates or infringes on anyone’s rights, rights of publicity, privacy, copyright, trademark or other intellectual property.

CUSTOMER CARE

Our team is here to support you and help make your SwingersHub experience as enjoyable as possible. You should never abuse or threaten Customer Care Representatives under any circumstances. Be respectful on your SwingersHub Profile.

PROFILE IMAGES

There are ground rules we expect you to observe when it comes to the types of images we allow on our platform.

Images that contain the following content will result in your account being permanently banned:

• Nudity or sexually explicit imagery
• Shows of violence, violent gestures, or gruesome imagery
• Depictions of criminal activity or drug use
• Racist or hate imagery

Images that contain the following are not allowed and will result in your account being moderated:

• Shirtless photos out of context (shirtless on a beach is okay, but not in your bathroom)
• Bikinis or swimwear out of context (outside is okay, but not inside)
• Lingerie or underwear
• Shirtless/underwear mirror selfies

We have a zero tolerance policy where minors feature in photos. Please refrain from posting as we will remove them from your profile.

ATTACHING IMAGES TO MESSAGES

We understand that part of getting to know another person is through sharing images that speak to your personal and unique experiences. With that understanding in mind, you may attach any image you like, so long as it does not contain:

• Nudity or sexually explicit imagery
• Shows of violence, violent gestures, or gruesome imagery
• Depictions of criminal activity or drug use
• Racist or hate imagery

Be respectful in the messages you send. Do not send a message containing unwelcome sexual propositions or sexually explicit content. 

PROSTITUTION, ESCORTING, SOLICITATION, AND TRAFFICKING

Promoting or advocating for commercial sexual services, human trafficking or non-consensual sexual acts on SwingersHub is not tolerated and will result in your account being permanently banned.

PRIVATE INFORMATION

You should never solicit another member for their private information, which includes, but not limited to, information such as passwords, SSN / SIN, financial information, and home or work address. Any information regarding a member, public or private, shall not be used for business/commercial use or any other unlawful or nefarious purpose. To protect yourself and other members, you should never publicly or privately share private information that belongs to you or someone else.

ILLEGAL USAGE

This should go without saying, but do not use SwingersHub to do anything illegal. Any profile or message content depicting criminal activity will be taken very seriously and will result in your account being permanently banned.

BE SAFE

Use your best judgement and keep your personal safety top of mind. Always.

MINORS

You must be 18 years of age or older to use SwingersHub. If you are found to be underage, your account will be immediately removed and banned. In the event you encounter someone that has indicated they are under the age of 18, we ask that you please file a report to keep both them and our community safe.

Never display sensitive personal information on your profile that could compromise the personal privacy and safety of yourself or someone else. When messaging other members on SwingersHub, don’t share more than you are comfortable with. When in doubt, keep your communication within the SwingersHub app. If you choose to share your personal information, stick to sharing basic contact information only.

Reporting bad actors and users who do not adhere to our terms of service is straightforward and important, and can be done on the SwingersHub app by clicking "Report User" on the drop down menu when viewing the profile they wish to report. On the web, members can find the "Report User" button at the very bottom of the profile they wish to report.

BE REAL

When you're free to be yourself, the right people take notice. Let’s take a stand for genuineness.

SCAMMING

Be human. Do not use SwingersHub to spam people, solicit money or business, or defraud people. Do not create accounts that impersonate another person or entity.

MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS

Do not create multiple accounts on SwingersHub, unless permission has been granted by our Customer Support Service staff. Inclusive of this, do not attempt to use an account that isn’t yours.

BE REAL ON YOUR SWINGERSHUB PROFILE

All of the information in your profile should be truthful and about you only. Never attempt to mask characters, content, or game the system to get around our rules for content.

PROFILE IMAGES

All your profile images should be focused on you, with your face clearly visible.

Some exceptions are:

• Sunglasses and hats are allowed as long as your entire face is visible in the image
• Pets are acceptable as long as your face is clearly visible in the image
• Images that contain multiple people are confusing to other members as they cannot tell who you are. For that reason, we may remove them
• We ask all members to represent themselves truthfully through the use of clear unedited images. For this reason, images that are heavily edited or use filters (e.g. Snapchat) will be removed
• Memes, Cartoons, and Text on images.
• Memes certainly have a time and a place, but it’s not here. Images that contain overlaid text or watermarks are not allowed either and will be removed.

BE REAL IN THE MESSAGES YOU SEND

Be mindful in your first messages to someone. In real life you wouldn’t introduce yourself with your phone number, email address, Instagram handle, Snapchat or kik, so don’t do that here either. SwingersHub is not the place to promote external links in your messages or on your profile. Same goes for solicitation or commercial promotion of any kind.

ACCOUNT TERMINATION

SwingersHub reserves the right to investigate and, if necessary, terminate your account should one or more of the Community Guidelines have been proven to be violated. SwingersHub also reserves the right to terminate accounts, without refund, if these Community Guidelines were abused or our service was misused in any way.

OFFLINE BEHAVIOR / REAL LIFE

Being Kind, Safe, Respectful, and Real applies to not only your online experience but your offline experience as well. With that said, our Community Guidelines apply, and are enforced, both on SwingersHub and in real life. If you’ve experienced bad behavior with another member in real life, we take that seriously and want to hear about it. Please contact us through our Help Center.

SAFETY TIPS

For information regarding SwingersHub's security practices or guidelines related to responsible disclosure, please visit our terms of service page.

Meeting new people is exciting, but you should always be cautious when interacting with someone you don't know. Use your best judgment and put your safety first, whether you are exchanging initial messages or meeting in person. While you can't control the actions of others, there are things you can do to help you stay safe during your SwingersHub experience.

ONLINE SAFETY

- Never Send Money or Share Financial Information - Never send money, especially over wire transfer, even if the person claims to be in an emergency. Wiring money is like sending cash - it's nearly impossible to reverse the transaction or trace where the money went. Never share information that could be used to access your financial accounts. If another user asks you for money, report it to us immediately. - For tips on avoiding romance scams, check out some advice from the U.S Federal Trade Commission on the FTC website or in the video below.

PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Never share personal information, such as your social security number, home or work address, or details about your daily routine (e.g., that you go to a certain gym every Monday) with people you don't know. If you are a parent, limit the information that you share about your children on your profile and in early communications. Avoid sharing details such as your children's names, where they go to school, or their ages or genders.

STAY ON THE SWINGERSHUB PLATFORM

Keep conversations on the SwingersHub platform while you're getting to know someone. Users with bad intentions often try to move the conversation to text, messaging apps, email, or phone right away.

BE WARY OF LONG-DISTANCE & OVERSEAS RELATIONSHIPS

Watch out for scammers who claim to be from your country but stuck somewhere else, especially if they ask for financial help to return home. Be wary of anyone who will not meet in person or talk on a phone/video call-they may not be who they say they are. If someone is avoiding your questions or pushing for a serious relationship without meeting or getting to know you first - that's a red flag.

REPORT ALL SUSPICIOUS & OFFENSIVE BEHAVIOUR

You know when someone's crossed the line and when they do, we want to know about it. Block and report anyone that violates our terms. Here are some examples of violations:

• Requests for money or donations
• Underage users
• Harassment, threats, and offensive messages
• Inappropriate or harmful behaviour during or after meeting in person
• Fraudulent profiles
• Spam or solicitation including links to commercial websites or attempts to sell products or services

You can report any concerns about suspicious behaviour from any profile page or messaging window or contact safety@swingershub.com.

PROTECT YOUR ACCOUNT

Be sure to pick a strong password, and always be careful when logging into your account from a public or shared computer. SwingersHub will never send you an email asking for your username and password information - if you receive an email asking for account information, report it immediately.

CONTACTING SWINGERSHUB

Please remember SwingersHub will NEVER ask you for your password, to share your screen with us, or require payment to receive customer support. If you need to contact SwingersHub, we recommend you contact us at help@swingershub.com. Please do not call phone numbers found in a Google search. We do not provide general support over the phone, and support phone numbers found in a Google search do not belong to SwingersHub.

MEETING IN PERSON

Don't Be In A Rush. Take your time and get to know the other person before agreeing to meet or chat off SwingersHub. Don't be afraid to ask questions to screen for any red flags or personal dealbreakers. A SwingersHub chat (available in application), FaceTime, or Skype video call can be a useful screening tool before meeting.

MEET IN PUBLIC & STAY IN PUBLIC

Meet for the first few times in a populated, public place - never at your home, your date's home, or any other private location. If your date pressures you to go to a private location, end the date.

BE IN CONTROL OF YOUR TRANSPORTATION

We want you to be in control of how you get to and from your date or party so that you can leave whenever you want. If you're driving yourself, it's a good idea to have a backup plan such as a ride-share app or a friend to pick you up.

KNOW YOUR LIMITS

Be aware of the effects of drugs or alcohol on you specifically - they can impair your judgment and your alertness. If your date tries to pressure you to use drugs or drink more than you're comfortable with, hold your ground and end the date.

DO NOT LEAVE DRINKS OR PERSONAL ITEMS UNATTENDED

Know where your drink comes from and know where it is at all times - only accept drinks poured or served directly from the bartender or server. Many substances that are slipped into drinks to facilitate sexual assault are odorless, colorless, and tasteless. Also, keep your phone, purse, wallet, and anything containing personal information on you at all times.

IF YOU FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE, PLEASE LEAVE

It's okay to end the date early if you're feeling uncomfortable. In fact, it's encouraged. And if your instincts are telling you something is off or you feel unsafe, ask the bartender or server for help.

SEXUAL HEALTH TO PROTECT YOURSELF

When used correctly and consistently, condoms can significantly reduce the risk of contracting and passing on STI's like HIV. But, be aware of STIs like herpes or HPV that can be passed on through skin-to-skin contact. The risk of contracting some STIs can be reduced through vaccination.

KNOW YOUR STATUS

Not all STIs show symptoms, and you don't want to be in the dark about your status. Stay on top of your health and prevent the spread of STIs by getting tested regularly. Here's where you can find a clinic near you (US only).

TALK ABOUT IT

Communication is everything: Before you get physically intimate with a partner, talk about sexual health and STI testing. And be aware - in some places, it's actually a crime to knowingly pass on an STI. Need help starting the conversation? Here are some tips.

CONSENT

All sexual activity must start with consent and should include ongoing check-ins with your partner. Verbal communication can help you and your partner ensure that you respect each other's boundaries. Consent can be withdrawn at any time, and sex is never owed to anyone. Do not proceed if your partner seems uncomfortable or unsure, or if your partner is unable to consent due to the effects of drugs or alcohol. Read more about it here.

RESOURCES FOR HELP & ADVICE

Remember - even if you follow these tips, no method of risk reduction is perfect. If you have a negative experience, please know that it is not your fault and help is available. Report any incidents to safety@swingershub.com, and consider reaching out to one of the resources below. If you feel you are in immediate danger or need emergency assistance, call 911 (U.S. or Canada) or your local law enforcement agency.

VIOLATIONS

Additionally, if you are aware of anyone who violates our terms of use please report them to safety@swingershub.com
