Zero tolerance
Blink is a dating app by Kivo Studios for adults aged 18 and over. We do not tolerate child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE) in any form. This includes child sexual abuse material (CSAM), sexualising minors, grooming, sextortion, trafficking and any attempt to contact, meet or obtain images of a person under 18.
Creating a profile for a minor, or a minor using Blink, is not allowed. Accounts that break these standards are removed.
How we prevent and act
Every member must give a date of birth showing they are 18 or over; the check runs on our servers. Members can report any profile or chat in the app, including with the reason “May be under 18”. Reports go to our moderators, who review them and can remove content and suspend or ban accounts.
When we become aware of child sexual abuse material or a child at risk, we remove it, keep the evidence needed for the investigation, and report it to the competent authorities, such as the police and the national reporting hotline (in the Netherlands: Offlimits), in line with applicable law. We cooperate with law enforcement.
Report a concern
In the app: open the profile or chat, tap Report and choose “May be under 18” or another reason. You can also block the person.
By email: our child safety contact is [email protected]. If a child is in immediate danger, contact the police or call 112 in the EU first.
