Community Guidelines: How We Treat Each Other on Vidizzy
Talking to strangers works when people behave decently. These are the rules everyone agrees to, written to be read, not skimmed past.
- Be respectful
- Protect privacy
- No scams, no minors
The idea behind the rules
You are about to speak with someone you have never met, who may be in a different country with a different sense of humour. A few shared rules make that possible. Break them and you lose access; follow them and most conversations are friendly. These guidelines sit alongside the terms of service and the safety tips.
Be decent to the person in front of you
- Treat people the way you would want to be treated in a first conversation.
- Accept "no", "skip" and silence the first time. A person leaving is not an invitation to follow.
- No harassment, bullying, threats or hate based on race, religion, gender, sexuality, disability, nationality or anything else.
- No unwanted sexual behaviour, requests or pressure. If someone has not clearly welcomed it, do not do it.
What a good conversation looks like
Most chats here are unremarkable in the best way. People say hello, swap where they are from, laugh about something small, and part on friendly terms. If someone is shy, you give them room. If a topic is not welcome, you change it. If you disagree, you do it politely, or you leave. None of that needs a rulebook, but it is worth saying out loud: the point of Vidizzy is that talking to someone new should feel good.
What is never allowed
- Anything involving minors. Vidizzy is for adults aged 18 and over. Sexual or exploitative content involving anyone under 18 is reported to the authorities.
- Illegal activity of any kind, including promoting or facilitating it.
- Violence and self-harm content or encouragement. If you are struggling, please reach out to a local support service.
- Impersonation. Do not pretend to be someone else to deceive or harm.
- Spam and advertising, including pushing people to other sites or apps.
Respect other people's privacy
Do not record, screenshot or share someone's video, voice or messages without their clear permission. Do not ask for, collect or publish private information such as a surname, address, workplace or phone number. Doing any of this can cause real harm and will get your access removed.
The other side of this coin is protecting yourself, which starts with knowing what anonymous video chat can and cannot hide.
Money, scams and links
Do not ask other users for money, gifts, gift cards or crypto, and do not pressure anyone into paying for anything outside Vidizzy. Do not send suspicious links or ask people to install software. If someone does this to you, end the chat and report it. The safety center lists common scams.
What happens when the rules are broken
Depending on how serious it is, we may warn you, restrict features, suspend your account or remove it for good. Anything involving minors, threats or serious crime may be reported to the relevant authorities. We may act without notice where safety demands it. If you think a decision was wrong, contact us and tell us why.
How to report a problem
Use the report option on the chat or user, and block the person if you want to. If you could not do it in the moment, email support[at]vidizzy.cc (replace [at] with @) with what happened and when. For anything urgent or dangerous, contact your local emergency services first. The help center has more.
Chat well, chat kindly
Most conversations here are friendly. Help keep it that way.
