If you are in immediate danger, contact local emergency services. These support channels cannot provide an emergency response.

NIMZY DOES NOT CONDUCT CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECKS.

Meeting someone you do not know

Use caution when communicating with a stranger who wants to meet you. Anyone who is able to commit identity theft can also falsify a dating profile. A photo review, age declaration or recommendation does not prove a person's identity or make a meeting safe.

Protect your information

Keep your full name, email address, home address, phone number, workplace and other identifying details out of your public profile and early messages. Stop communicating with anyone who pressures you to reveal private information or tries to trick you into sharing personal or financial details.

Do not send money, payment information or verification codes to someone you meet here. Be cautious about requests to move quickly to another messaging service, emergencies that require money, and investment offers from a person you have not met. A long conversation does not establish that a request is genuine.

Photos and consent

Sexually explicit photos are not allowed on Nimzy. Content checks can miss prohibited material. If an intimate image of you appears here without your consent, use the intimate-image removal page. You do not need an account.

Meeting in person

Meet in a busy public place. Arrange your own transport and do not have someone pick you up at home. Tell a trusted person where you are going and when you expect to return. Leave if you feel uncomfortable.

A date invitation in the app is an arrangement between members. PlainSpan LLC does not host or supervise the meeting.

Report a concern

Use the in-app report and block controls, or email safety@plainspan.com. Give the account or content involved and where it appears. Do not email extra copies of intimate images or government identification.

For an intimate image shared without consent, use the removal process. See child safety for concerns involving someone under 18. Neither page requires an account.
