Dating safety tips
Smart habits for meeting new people.
💻 Online
Never send money or share financial info
Never send money, especially by wire transfer, even if someone claims it's an emergency. Wire transfers are nearly impossible to reverse or trace. If anyone asks you for money, report them to us right away.
Protect your personal information
Don't share your social security number, home or work address, or daily routine with people you don't know. If you're a parent, keep details about your children private.
Keep the conversation on Peck
Stay on the platform while you get to know someone. People with bad intentions often try to move the chat elsewhere quickly.
Be wary of long-distance "emergencies"
Be cautious of anyone who says they're stuck overseas and needs help getting home, refuses to video call or meet, or pushes for a serious relationship before you've met.
Report suspicious behavior
Report requests for money, underage users, harassment or threats, fake profiles, spam and anything that makes you uncomfortable, whether it happens online or in person.
☕ Meeting in person
Don't rush it
Take your time. A video call before you meet is a great way to spot red flags, and you can make one inside Peck without sharing your number.
Meet in public, and stay in public
For the first few dates, choose busy public places and avoid private homes. If someone pressures you to go somewhere private, end the date.
Tell a friend your plans
Let a friend or family member know who you're meeting, where and when. Keep your phone charged and with you.
Control your own transport
Make sure you can leave whenever you want. Have a backup plan, such as a ride-share app or a friend on call.
Know your limits, and watch your drink
Be mindful of how alcohol affects you. Only accept drinks from the bartender or server, and never leave your drink or belongings unattended.
Uncomfortable? Leave.
It's always okay to end a date early. Trust your instincts, and ask staff for help if you need it.
🏳️🌈 LGBTQ+ travel
Know the local laws
Some countries have laws that target LGBTQ+ people. Before you travel, research local laws and protections. ILGA World tracks sexual orientation laws by country.
Stay extra vigilant
In places with discriminatory laws, police have been known to use dating apps for entrapment. Take extra care when connecting with new people there.
❤️ Sexual health & consent
Protect yourself and know your status
Using condoms consistently lowers the risk of STIs, including HIV. Many STIs have no symptoms, so get tested regularly and talk with your partner about testing before you're intimate.
Consent is required, every time
All sexual activity needs consent, and it can be withdrawn at any time. Check in with each other often. Someone who is impaired by drugs or alcohol cannot give consent. RAINN has more on consent.
