Safety Tips

Your safety is our top priority. While we work hard to keep the Amour community safe through identity verification, content moderation, and our Trust & Safety team, there are also steps you can take to protect yourself when connecting with new people.

Protecting Your Profile

Verify Your Identity

Amour offers identity verification to help confirm that the person behind a profile is who they say they are. Verified profiles display a verification badge, giving other members greater confidence when connecting with you.

You can verify your identity from your Profile tab under Safety → ID Verification.

Be Thoughtful About What You Share

Your Amour profile is visible to other members. Consider what personal information you include:

• Avoid sharing your full name, home address, workplace, or daily routine in your profile or early conversations.
• Be cautious about sharing photos that reveal identifying locations, such as your home, office, or regular hangout spots.
• Do not share financial information, government IDs, or passwords with anyone on the platform.

Communicating Safely

Keep Conversations on Amour

We recommend keeping your conversations within the Amour app, especially in the early stages of getting to know someone. Our platform has safety features, including the ability to report and block users, that are not available on other messaging platforms.

Trust Your Instincts

If something feels off about a conversation or a person's behaviour, trust your instincts. You are never obligated to continue a conversation, share personal information, or meet someone in person.

Watch for Warning Signs

Be cautious of members who:

• Ask for money, gifts, or financial assistance.
• Pressure you to move conversations off the app immediately.
• Refuse to share photos or video chat before meeting.
• Share inconsistent stories about themselves.
• Become aggressive or disrespectful when you set boundaries.

If you encounter any of these behaviours, we encourage you to report the profile so our team can investigate.

Meeting in Person

Meet in a Public Place

For your first meeting, always choose a well-lit, public location such as a cafe, restaurant, or park. Avoid meeting at a private residence or an isolated area.

Tell Someone You Trust

Before meeting someone from Amour, share the following details with a trusted friend or family member:

• Who you are meeting (their Amour profile name).
• Where you are meeting.
• What time you expect to be back.

Consider arranging a check-in call or message during or after the meeting.

Arrange Your Own Transport

Travel to and from the meeting independently. Do not rely on the other person for transport, especially for the first few meetings. This ensures you can leave whenever you feel uncomfortable.

Stay Sober and Alert

Avoid consuming excessive alcohol or other substances when meeting someone for the first time. Staying alert helps you make sound judgements about your safety.

Do Not Leave Personal Belongings Unattended

Keep your phone, bag, and other personal items with you at all times. Do not leave your drink unattended.

Protecting Your Financial Information

Never Send Money

Never send money or share financial details with someone you have met on Amour, regardless of the reason they give. Common scam tactics include fabricating emergencies, investment opportunities, or travel expenses.

Be Wary of Links

Do not click on links sent by other members, especially links to external websites, payment portals, or apps. These may be phishing attempts designed to steal your personal information.

Using Amour's Safety Features

Amour provides several tools to help you stay safe:

If You Are in Danger

After ensuring your safety, you can report the incident to us at safety-amour@turtlebyte.in or through the in-app reporting feature. We cooperate with law enforcement when required by law.

Report Suspicious Behaviour

You do not need to be the victim to file a report. If you notice a profile that appears to be a scam, contains inappropriate content, seems to impersonate someone else, or is otherwise suspicious, please report it. Every report helps us keep the community safe.
