Safety & privacy

Getting to know someone.
On your terms.

Controls help you choose how you take part. No profile or verification label can guarantee someone’s identity or safety.

Control contact

Report concerns and block unwanted contact. A block does not send the other person a notification.

Get support

Choose your visibility

Pause discovery while keeping existing conversations. Select your city without sharing device position.

Your privacy

Know the limits

Photo review is not identity verification. Porchkeep does not conduct criminal background checks.
