Sexual Health & Consent

If someone has crossed a line, we ask you to let us know as we strive to make Dating Pro the safest place for online dating. You can report any user in the app who makes you uncomfortable, violates our policies, committed a serious crime, listed in the Sexual Assault Registry, or behaved this way before. Complaining about inappropriate behavior is very simple and completely confidential.

• Protect Yourself
  When used correctly and consistently, condoms can significantly reduce the risk of contracting and passing on STI’s like HIV. But, be aware of STIs like herpes or HPV that can be passed on through skin-to-skin contact. The risk of contracting some STIs can be reduced through vaccination.

• Know Your Status.
  Not all STIs show symptoms, and you don’t want to be in the dark about your status. Stay on top of your health and prevent the spread of STIs by getting tested regularly.

• Talk About It
  Communication is everything: Before you get physically intimate with a partner, talk about sexual health and STI testing. And be aware — in some places, it’s actually a crime to knowingly pass on an STI. 

• Consent
  All sexual activity must start with consent and should include ongoing check-ins with your partner. Verbal communication can help you and your partner ensure that you respect each other’s boundaries. Consent can be withdrawn at any time, and sex is never owed to anyone. Do not proceed if your partner seems uncomfortable or unsure, or if your partner is unable to consent due to the effects of drugs or alcohol.
