Last updated: Jul 1, 2026
Your safety and comfort come first. Here’s how Veluvy protects you and how to look after yourself.
Built-in protections
- 18+ only. Veluvy is for adults; minors are not permitted.
- Report & block. You can report or block anyone, anytime, from their profile.
- Private profile mode. Control whether your profile appears in search.
- Consent-first messaging. People can only message you after you both match.
- Moderation. Reported profiles are reviewed and can be suspended.
Staying safe
- Keep conversations on Veluvy until you feel comfortable.
- Never send money or share financial details.
- Protect personal info (home address, workplace) until you trust someone.
- Meet in public for first dates and tell a friend where you’ll be.
- Trust your instincts. If something feels off, it’s okay to stop.
Watch for red flags
- Pressure to move to another app or to share private photos.
- Treat any request for money, gift cards, or crypto as a scam.
- Refusing to video chat or meet, or stories that don’t add up.
