Safety Tips

Guard your identity

RedHot Dateline is always private. The RedHot Dateline system is confidential and ensures your true identity is protected until you decide to reveal it. Never include your last name, email address, home address, phone number, place of work or any other identifying information in your personal greetings or messages. Stop communicating with anyone who pressures you for personal information or attempts in any way to trick you into revealing it.

Check them out

RedHot Dateline guarantees privacy above all else, which means we do not do background checks on users. Ask questions, do online searches and most importantly, use common sense. If you encounter anyone who seems to be underage, please alert the Customer Service team.

Watch out for any of the following signs someone is not telling you the truth:

• Inconsistent information about age, interests, appearance, marital status, profession, employment, etc.
• Failing to give direct answers to direct questions.

Look out for red flags

Red flags come in all forms – displays of anger, overt pressure, passive-aggressive behavior, demeaning remarks, or disrespectful comments. There is no reason you should ever have to put up with any of these. If you see any of these flags, stop contact and block or report the person.

Trust your instincts

Your gut feeling is your best safety gauge. If something feels “off” to you, it probably is. Take it as a valid signal and step back, or end contact. You do not owe anyone anything. At any point you can change your mind. Fun can be safe too!

Getting yourself out of a jam

Never push yourself to say or do anything that feels uncomfortable or unsafe. Feeling unsure? Step back and use your common sense. There is no embarrassment in feeling uncomfortable. Your safety is more important than a person’s opinion of you.
