​

8. Rules of Caution

​

Meeting new people is often enriching and exciting at the same time. However, it is your responsibility to exercise judgment and caution in your actions, both during online interactions and in-person meetings.

​

8.1 Online

​

1. Do not disclose personal information to another member before getting to know them better. For example, do not share your home address, your children’s names, their school names, places you regularly visit, or any other information that could make it easy to locate you outside of where you and another Member are simultaneously present. It is best to wait until you know a person and verify the accuracy of certain details before sharing personal information.

2. Never disclose your banking information and do not accept solicitations for money.

3. Report any inappropriate or suspicious behavior, or any account suspected of being fake or providing false information. Here are some valid situations for reporting:​

• Account held by a minor

• Aggressive or disrespectful messages

• Inappropriate behavior during an in-person meeting

• Fake profiles and accounts

• Requests for money transfers

• Solicitation for the sale or purchase of products or services

​

8.2 In-Person

​

All these guidelines apply when using our Services through the First Sight app, but they are also applicable in general life.

​

1. It is recommended to establish an initial in-person contact in a public place where you are already simultaneously present with another Member, to get a first impression and verify the authenticity of that Member’s profile.

2. When meeting another Member in a public place while you are already simultaneously present in the same location, it is crucial to remain in a visible area. Never choose an outdoor or indoor parking lot, a restroom, or any other isolated place as a meeting point. Always stay in areas visible to others.

3. When leaving a location where you were publicly present, whether to go elsewhere or return home, walk in well-lit and safe areas or be accompanied.

4. If you choose not to meet another Member while already simultaneously present in a public place and instead arrange a later in-person meeting, do so in a public place rather than a private residence.

5. For first meetings with someone you have recently met, you may inform a friend of the meeting location and suggest they call you to check in.

6. Consuming substances is not encouraged during first meetings. Stay clear-headed and set boundaries if needed.

7. It can sometimes be difficult to say no, but always remember that you can leave a meeting if you feel uncomfortable or unsafe.

8. Do not rely on the person you are meeting to arrange your transportation to or from the date.

​​

The Member is solely responsible for verifying the authenticity of the identity of individuals they may decide to meet in a private or public location following an initial interaction through our Services. First Sight app cannot, under any circumstances, be held liable for any incident occurring during a meeting between two or more Members.

​

​

First Sight app encourages its Members to report any Member who may have engaged in inappropriate behavior or violated one or more guidelines outlined in these Terms. To facilitate this, First Sight app provides a reporting feature within its Services, allowing Members to quickly report a Member.

​

10. Disclaimer

​
