Guidelines

Be respectful

• Treat others with dignity. No harassment, hate speech, threats, or bullying.
• Consent matters in chat, Live, gifts, and Meetup Live — stop if someone isn’t interested.
• Disagree without personal attacks. Report, don’t retaliate.

Be honest

• Use recent photos of yourself and accurate profile details.
• No fake profiles, impersonation, catfishing, scams, or solicitation.
• Don’t misrepresent age, relationship status, or identity to deceive others.

Keep it adult & legal

• Everyone on Flare must be 18 or older. No content involving minors — ever.
• Report underage concerns immediately. We take these reports seriously.
• No illegal activity, exploitation, or content that violates applicable law.
• No nudity, sexually explicit, or sexually suggestive photos. Profile photos must show you and must not include minors, violence, hate symbols, or someone else's image without permission. We may remove photos or restrict accounts that break these rules.

Live & Meetup Live

• Live gifts and streams should stay respectful; don’t pressure or harass viewers or hosts.
• SFW Live must stay safe-for-work — no nudity or sexual content. Hosts get up to three safety flags (“dings,” shown as red X’s). After the third ding, Go Live is paused for about two hours.
• Live may be recorded for safety, moderation, enforcement, and posterity (we keep recordings as needed — not wiped the second you go offline). You’ll confirm this before you Start streaming. See Privacy and Terms.
• Don’t run or promote Live games (Spark Off, Gift Rush, Team Spark, or similar) as gambling, betting, cash contests, or earnings. Don’t use bots or fake gifts to rig scores. Gifts are optional tips, not bets; battle badges have no cash value. Harassment and abuse are banned during games the same as any Live — Report, Block, and soft-ban still apply.
• Meetup Live is optional and mutual. Location sharing is approximate (±150m).
• Meet in public places. You can end location sharing anytime. Trust your instincts.

Chat Rooms

• Public city and topic Rooms and private invite-only Rooms are 18+ and safe-for-work. No nudity, sexual content, or sexual solicitation.
• No slurs, hate, harassment, spamming, or pressuring people for gifts. Don’t post phone numbers, links, or other contact info. Our filters block them, and working around the filters is a violation.
• Hosts and mods can mute or kick members. Don’t abuse host tools, and don’t rejoin under another account to dodge a mute, kick, or ban.
• Breaking the rules earns dings (red X’s). After the third ding, Room access is paused for about two hours. Serious or repeated violations can mean a longer restriction or a ban.
• Coin gifts in Rooms are optional tips with vanity value only. The coins are spent, and nobody receives or can cash them out. No prize pots, raffles, betting, or “gift to win” games.
• Near Me Rooms group people by the first three digits of their ZIP code. Your full ZIP stays private. Don’t use Near Me to locate, follow, or show up on someone, and don’t share exact addresses in a Room.
• Starting a DM requires selfie verification. It runs on your device and is a best-effort check, not proof of who someone is, so stay alert. Use Report and Block anytime.

Safety tools

Use Report and Block when something feels off. Flare reviews safety reports and may restrict or remove accounts that violate these guidelines or our Terms.
