Hoppy — Community-Richtlinien

At Hoppy, our mission is to create a dating world that’s less anxious and more authentic. We envision a community where you can have more meaningful conversations and rediscover the simple joy of having a crush — alongside your friends, your classmates, your group chat, whoever!

The following Community Guidelines were created to support that mission. If you come across any content or behaviors that violate these guidelines, we encourage you to report it to our Safety team. Together, we can create an environment where all users feel safe and welcome.

IDENTITY

Be yourself

We want to get to know the real you, so please represent yourself accurately. Impersonation on Hoppy is prohibited — never pretend to be another individual or organization.

Do not:

  • Misrepresent your name, age, gender, or location
  • Impersonate a well-known public figure, private individual, or a fictional character

PRIVACY

Only share what’s yours

Do not disclose private or personal information on Hoppy without explicit consent. Speak your truth, not anyone else’s.

Do not:

  • Solicit personal information from other users to harass, exploit, or violate their privacy
  • Post someone's confidential or personal conversations, images, or videos without their explicit permission
  • Use our platform to engage in any kind of non-consensual behavior

MISINFORMATION

Don’t spread misinformation

False and misleading content isn’t just frustrating, it can lead to real harm and distrust. To protect public safety, Hoppy strictly prohibits persistent dangerous or unproven misinformation.

Do not:

  • Share misinformation related to conspiracy theories
  • Post content that contradicts guidance from global health organizations or public health authorities

MALICIOUS CONTENT

No scammers or spammers

Spam and deception create negative user experiences that erode trust on our platform. Any content that violates the integrity of Hoppy is prohibited. We do our best to catch fraudsters, but please be wary of anyone asking for financial or personal information.

Do not:

  • Post large amounts of repetitive, unwanted messages
  • Distribute unauthorized advertisements
  • Deceive people into sharing financial information
  • Share financial opportunities promising high returns with little risk

SOLICITATION

Get that bag elsewhere

Hoppy is not a marketplace. We love side hustles, girl bosses, and couples building their empire, but Hoppy is not the platform for promotion.

Do not:

  • Post unsolicited commercial or promotional content

BULLYING & HATE SPEECH

Treat others with respect

We strictly prohibit harassment, bullying, intimidation, and any behaviors that propagate hate or dehumanization towards marginalized communities.

Do not:

  • Threaten, intimidate, degrade, abuse, or bully individuals or groups of people
  • Encourage others to bully or harass users
  • Use slurs, derogatory language, or harmful stereotypes intended to demean or belittle a protected group or individual
  • Celebrate, glorify or deny hate crimes, including historical acts of violence or oppression

SELF-DESTRUCTIVE BEHAVIOR

Discuss sensitive topics responsibly

We understand that users may connect over sensitive topics, such as self-harm or mental health struggles. While these topics of conversation are permitted, we want Hoppy to be a safe space for everyone. Content should never put someone’s life at risk, promote self-harm, or encourage others to engage in life-threatening behavior.

Do not:

  • Glorify, aid, or promote self-harm, eating disorders, or suicide
  • Share content that encourages or features the misuse of legal or illegal substances

SEXUALLY SUGGESTIVE CONTENT

Keep things decent and safe

Nudity, pornography, and sexually vulgar content are not allowed on Hoppy. Never engage in commercial transactions involving sexual activity or services.

Do not:

  • Share sexually suggestive media, including nudity, pornography or provocative content
  • Depict, promote, or glorify non-consensual sexual acts or sexual abuse
  • Coerce individuals to engage in sexual acts, send explicit imagery, or make other inappropriate demands

YOUTH SAFETY

Protect minors

Hoppy is for adults 18 years and older. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy against any form of child sexual exploitation, sexualization, or abuse.

Do not:

  • Share any form of content that involves minors with sexually suggestive elements
  • Solicit, share, or distribute any materials that sexually exploit minors

VIOLENCE

Do no harm

Never encourage or praise acts of violence. We prohibit content that implies or threatens physical or sexual violence, or that gives dangerous individuals or organizations a podium.

Do not:

  • Depict, glorify, or encourage violence or sadism towards humans or animals
  • Share content that includes physical altercations, fights, or any form of assault
  • Share content that includes gore, mutilation, dismemberment
  • Describe graphic or explicit scenes of death, injury, or severe physical suffering
  • Post content that supports, glorifies, or promotes hate groups, violent extremists, gangs, cartels, or terrorist entities
  • Post content featuring reckless use of weapons
