Cat Lovers Cupid Global Community Guidelines
These Guidelines Effective September 2024
Welcome to Cat Lovers Cupid “MEOW!“
We want Cat Lovers Cupid to be a fun, safe, and inclusive space where anyone can be themselves while getting to know others.
Our Global Community Guidelines are for–to set expectations for everyone’s behavior, both on, and off, of the platform and app.
So read on; not following these guidelines can have real consequences-from a side-eye to a ban.
Cat Lovers Cupid’s Global Guidelines:
1. Consider Boundaries.
Comfort levels vary person to person.
That’s why we do not allow nudity, sexual content, sexual desires, or looking for sex on your public profile.
If you are in a private conversation, these are okay if everyone is okay with it.
Consent matters.
2. Share Cautiously and Thoughtfully.
Do not publicly broadcast your personal information, or ways, for people to connect with you (no public displays of things like phone numbers, emails, or social handles).
Sharing out your bank account numbers, or email password, is always a bad idea.
Do not ask others to send you their personal details either.
Be cautious when sending money to other people.
Or maybe do not at all.
3. Steer Clear of Violent Content.
We promote positivity and will not tolerate any sort of violent content that contains gore, death, images, or descriptions of violent acts (against humans or animals), use of weapons, and anything advocating, or glorifying, self-harm.
If we believe there is a risk of imminent harm, we may take steps to assist, like reaching out directly with crisis resources.
4. Make Personal Connections, not Biz Ones.
Do not advertise, promote, share your social handles to gain followers, sell stuff (allowable in our Marketplace), fundraise, or campaign.
This also means Cat Lovers Cupid is not the place for any sort of sex work, escort services, or compensated relationships.
So, no–do not use Cat Lovers Cupid to find your “Sugar Baby”/”Sugar Daddy.”
5. Just Be You.
People want to meet the real you.
Not your fake persona.
Do not create a fake account, or pretend to be someone you are not, even if it is just for fun.
Catfish belong in the water, NOT on Cat Lovers Cupid.
6. Communicate Respectfully.
Talking to new people can be tricky, especially when you are interacting with humans from all walks of life.
Respect goes a long way.
If the conversation goes unexpectedly weird, and you find yourself getting upset, or feeling angry–pause, and reflect, before you react.
Harassment, threats, bullying, intimidation, doxing, sextortion, blackmail, or anything intentionally done to cause harm is not allowed.
Cat Lovers Cupid is not a place for hate.
We will never stand behind racism, bigotry, hatred, or violence based on who someone is, how they identify, or what they look like.
This includes (but not limited to), someone’s race, ethnicity, religious affiliation, disability, physicality, gender, gender identity, age, national origin, or sexual orientation.
If you see someone who does not meet your personal criteria, do not “Like” them, un-match, or disassociate with them, and move on.
Do not report them unless you think they have violated our policies.
7. Lead with Kindness, Not Harm.
Any acts, or behavior, that suggests, intends, or causes harm to another member – either on, or offline, physically or digitally – will be taken very seriously.
This includes anything calling for, or inciting, harm.
If you have been hurt by someone on Cat Lovers Cupid: first, please take care of yourself, and second, take some time to decide what you need to heal, whether that be accountability measures, disclosure, support, or all of the above.
If this includes reporting the harm to us, please reach out.
We are here for you.
8. Adults ONLY.
You must be EIGHTTEEN (18) years of age, or older, to use Cat Lovers Cupid.
This also means we do not allow photos of unaccompanied, or unclothed minors, including photos of your younger self–no matter how adorable you were back then.
9. Abide by the Law.
No illegal content, or activities, are allowed, ever.
This means you can not use Cat Lovers Cupid to buy, or sell, drugs, or counterfeit goods, or ask for assistance to help you break the law.
We definitely will not tolerate anyone using Cat Lovers Cupid to advocate, or participate, in any sort of harm involving minors, or human trafficking.
10. One Account Per Person.
Each account can only have one owner.
For logistic, and privacy reasons, we can not support multiple people accessing the same account, each individual needs to have their own.
11. This is Your Space, Post Your Own Content.
Do not post images, or private messages, from other people unless you have been given consent to do so.
Do not post work that is copyrighted, or trademarked, by others.
12. Be an Honest Member of the Cat Lovers Cupid Community.
Do not abuse Cat Lovers Cupid.
Do not use Cat Lovers Cupid to spread false, or misleading, info.
Do not spam harmful links, or unsolicited content.
Do not create mass accounts.
Do not use Cat Lovers Cupid to manipulate, con, or get people to send you money, or anything else.
Do not submit misleading reports.
Do not use third-party apps to unlock features, or game, the system.
13. Stick Around to Stay Active.
If you do not log into your Cat Lovers Cupid account on a regular basis, we will presume it is permanently dormant, and may delete it for inactivity.
So if you want to be seen in the online, or the app, just log in from time-to-time.
Reporting
As a member of the Cat Lovers Cupid global community, we encourage you to speak up and speak out.

Impact
We take our Community Guidelines and the impact they have on our global community seriously.
We will do everything we can to make sure people follow them.
We may have a warning system in place, but if violations continue, or if the violation is severe, we will respond accordingly.
We reserve the right to investigate and/or terminate accounts without a refund of any purchases if we find you have misused the Service, or behaved in a way Cat Lovers Cupid deems inappropriate, unlawful, or in violation of our Community Guidelines or Terms and Conditions-of-Use, including actions, or communications, that occur off the Service, but involve others you meet through the Service.
