Community guidelines

Keep it fun, keep it kind

Chatingly is for meeting people from different places and backgrounds. These rules apply to everyone, on camera and in chat. Everyone agrees to them before their first video chat.

  1. 01

    Adults only

    You must be 18 or older to use Chatingly. Any conduct or content that exploits, sexualizes or endangers minors is strictly prohibited and may be reported to the authorities.

  2. 02

    No nudity or sexual content

    Nudity, pornography, and sexually explicit behavior or content are not allowed on camera or in chat.

  3. 03

    No harassment or hate

    Don't attack or demean others based on race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, age or any other characteristic. No bullying, intimidation or unwanted sexual comments.

  4. 04

    No threats or violence

    Threats of violence or harm to anyone, and content that glorifies violence, are prohibited.

  5. 05

    Respect privacy

    Don't record, screenshot or share anyone without their consent, and don't try to find or reveal other people's personal information.

  6. 06

    Be yourself

    Don't impersonate other people or deceive others about who you are. Don't use bots or automated tools.

  7. 07

    No spam or advertising

    Chatingly can't be used to market, advertise or promote goods, services, links or other sites.

  8. 08

    No self-harm or cruelty

    Content that encourages self-harm, or that involves harm or cruelty to animals, is prohibited.

  9. 09

    Follow the law

    Comply with all laws that apply to you. Don't use Chatingly to promote or carry out illegal activity.

  10. 10

    Don't dodge a ban

    If you're banned, don't try to get around it with another browser, device or network. Evading a ban is itself a violation, and the ban then covers the new browser or network too.

Enforcement

What happens when someone breaks the rules

Report them. Tap the flag during a call and choose a reason. The chat ends immediately, you won't be matched with them again, and a snapshot of their video goes to our moderators with your report. If you skipped first, the flag still reports your last match for two minutes.

Moderators review every report. People who break these rules are banned for a day, a month, a year or permanently, depending on what happened. Someone reported by several people within an hour is banned automatically for a day until a moderator looks at it. We may restrict access, temporarily or permanently, for serious or repeated violations, with or without notice.

You can always leave. Press Next (or Esc) to end any conversation instantly. You never owe a stranger an explanation.

To report a safety concern outside a call, email [email protected]. Parents: parental-control tools on your device or network can help limit minors' access to sites like this one. See also the safety FAQ.
