Staying Safe on Tudae
We Take Safety Seriously
While Tudae is designed to help you find meaningful connections, we're equally committed to ensuring your safety throughout your dating journey.
Online dating should be fun, exciting, and most importantly, safe. We've created this guide to help you navigate the dating world with confidence while protecting your personal information and wellbeing.
Remember, your safety is a shared responsibility. We've built robust security features into our platform, but we also encourage you to follow these safety guidelines when using Tudae.
Before You Meet
Take Your Time
Chat within the app for a while before moving to phone calls or video chats. Get to know someone before meeting in person, and don't feel rushed to meet up.
Do Your Research
Look up your match on social media and do a quick search online. Verified profiles on Tudae have passed our checks, but additional research never hurts.
Video Chat First
Consider having a video call before meeting in person. This helps verify they are who they claim to be and can give you a better sense of their personality.
Trust Your Instincts
If someone makes you feel uncomfortable or something doesn't seem right, trust your gut feeling. It's always okay to end a conversation or cancel a date if you're feeling unsure.
Meeting In Person
Meet in Public Places
Choose busy, public locations for your first few meetings. Restaurants, coffee shops, or busy parks during daylight hours are good options.
Avoid private, isolated locations or inviting someone to your home until you've established trust over multiple meetings.
Tell a Friend
Always let someone you trust know about your date plans – where you're going, who you're meeting, and when you expect to return.
Use our "Share My Date" feature to easily share your date details and location with a trusted contact.
Arrange Your Own Transportation
Always plan how you'll get to and from your date. Avoid accepting rides from someone you've just met.
Make sure you have a way to leave independently if you feel uncomfortable at any point during the date.
Stay Sober and Alert
It's best to limit alcohol consumption on early dates. Stay clear-headed and aware of your surroundings.
Never leave your food or drinks unattended, and be wary if someone is pushing you to drink more than you're comfortable with.
Keep Your Phone Charged
Make sure your phone is fully charged before your date. Consider bringing a portable charger as well.
Have emergency contacts readily available, and check in with a friend during your date if possible.
Have an Exit Strategy
It's smart to have a plan if things aren't going well. This could be a friend calling you at a set time or having a planned excuse ready.
Remember, it's perfectly okay to end a date early if you feel uncomfortable for any reason.
