🛡️ Your Safety Matters

Safety Tips

At Zanga, your safety is our top priority. Follow these guidelines to have a safe and enjoyable dating experience.

💻 Online Safety

Protecting Yourself Online

🔒

Protect Your Personal Information

Never share sensitive information like your home address, workplace, financial details, or social security number with someone you haven't met in person.

📸

Be Careful with Photos

Avoid sharing photos that reveal your location, license plate, or other identifying information. Use photos taken specifically for dating apps.

🚫

Don't Send Money

Never send money or gifts to someone you haven't met in person, regardless of their story. Scammers often create elaborate tales.

⚠️

Trust Your Instincts

If something feels off about a conversation or person, trust your gut. You can always unmatch or block someone if you feel uncomfortable.

🤝 Meeting In Person

Safe First Dates

01

Meet in Public Places

Always meet in a public place like a coffee shop, restaurant, or park. Avoid meeting at someone's home or a private location for first dates.

02

Tell Someone Your Plans

Share your date details with a friend or family member. Include where you're going, who you're meeting, and when you expect to be back.

03

Arrange Your Own Transportation

Don't rely on your date for a ride. Use your own car, rideshare, or public transportation so you can leave whenever you want.

04

Stay Sober

Be mindful of alcohol consumption. Staying sober helps you stay alert and make better decisions about your safety.

05

Video Chat First

Before meeting in person, consider having a video call. This helps verify the person matches their photos and gives you a better sense of who they are.
