Community Standards

Last updated: 20 September 2026

[COUNSEL REVIEW REQUIRED] Working draft for engineering and product use; to be finalised with counsel before public launch.

DostMilo exists to help verified adults make real, platonic plans safely. These Standards apply to every profile, message, request and meetup. Breaking them can lead to warnings, restrictions, suspension or removal.

Not allowed

Sexual solicitation or services: offering, requesting or arranging sexual acts for money, gifts or any consideration; escort services; "extra services"; sexualised massage.
Pressure to move private: insisting on a private residence, hotel room or isolated location after the other person has declined.
Minors: anyone under 18, or misrepresenting age.
Harassment, threats, stalking or repeated unwanted contact.
Hate or identity attacks based on gender, religion, caste, sexual orientation or other protected characteristics.
Fraud and scams: fake profiles, stolen photos, impersonation, payment fraud, chargeback abuse, extortion.
Exploitation or coercion: third-party control, procurement or trafficking of any person.
Unsafe alcohol behaviour: promoting excessive or binge drinking, or encouraging impaired driving.
Off-platform evasion: repeatedly pushing to share contact details to avoid safety features.

Expected of everyone

Be honest in your profile, photos and intentions.
Keep first meetups in public, well-frequented venues.
Respect boundaries — a "no" is final.
Communicate clearly, show up on time, and pay what was agreed.
Treat every member with courtesy, regardless of gender or background.

Reporting and blocking

Every profile and chat includes options to report and block. Reports are reviewed by our team; blocking immediately stops a user from messaging or connecting with you. In an emergency, use the in-app SOS and contact local emergency authorities.

How we enforce

Depending on severity and context, we may take no action, issue a warning, remove content, limit messaging, restrict bookings, suspend, or permanently remove an account. Clear age failure, credible threats and prohibited sexual-service or trafficking conduct are treated as high-severity and may lead to immediate action and escalation to authorities.

Appeals

If you believe an action was taken in error, you may appeal; where practical, a different reviewer will assess your appeal.
