Community guidelines
Dabbel works because people show up and treat each other well. These rules apply in the app, in group chats and at every meetup.
The rules
- You must be 18 or older.
- Use your real name and a clear, recent photo of yourself.
- Don’t pretend to be someone else, and keep to one account.
- No harassment, bullying, hate or threats.
- No unwanted advances, comments about someone’s body, or explicit messages and photos.
- Don’t share other people’s personal information.
- Take no for an answer. If a host declines your request or someone leaves, let it go.
- Only join plans you mean to go to.
- If something comes up, tell your group in the chat as early as you can.
- Hosts: if you need to change or cancel, update the activity right away.
- Describe activities accurately, including the time, place, skill level and cost.
- If it’s paid, say how much up front.
- Dabbel isn’t a marketplace. No spam, sales pitches, scams or asking people for money.
- Pick a public place for a first meetup.
- Get yourself there and back, and let a friend know where you’re going.
- You can leave any time. Nobody should pressure you to drink, stay or share your contact details.
No drugs, weapons or illegal activity, and no activities that involve minors. See our child safety standards.
What happens off the app counts
These rules cover how you treat people at meetups and in any messages that started on Dabbel. We can take action based on reports about either.
Reporting and blocking
Report someone from their profile for harassment, spam, a scam or inappropriate content. Blocking works both ways and removes you from any group chats you share.
For anything urgent, email support@dabbel.app. If someone is in danger, contact local emergency services first.
What we do
Depending on what happened, we may remove content, warn you, or suspend or ban your account. We work with law enforcement when needed. Making false reports to target someone is also against these rules.
