Welcome to Frienda!
Frienda is a social networking service designed to help users find new friends in a safe and welcoming environment.
We are committed to maintaining a positive, respectful community. By using Frienda, you agree to interact with others according to these principles:
Be Friendly and Respectful: Treat all users with kindness and respect. Harassment, bullying, and personal attacks are strictly prohibited. You must not insult, threaten, or incite hatred against anyone. Any content or communication that could be deemed offensive or is likely to harass, upset, embarrass, alarm, or annoy another person is not allowed. Keep conversations civil, even if you disagree. If someone asks you to stop a certain behavior (e.g., stop messaging them after they decline an invite), respect their boundaries.
Inclusivity and Safe Space: Frienda is a space oriented towards women’s friendships. To keep it safe and comfortable, we limit participation to users who identify as women (see Section 1.3). Hate speech or discrimination of any kind is forbidden. This includes any negative or prejudiced content or treatment based on someone’s gender, race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, disability, or any other characteristic. You may not use slurs or epithets targeting any group. Frienda celebrates diversity among women – all users deserve to feel welcome and safe regardless of their background. Violation of this rule (for example, sexist or racist remarks) will result in content removal and likely account removal.
Privacy and Personal Boundaries: Respect the privacy of others. Do not share anyone else’s personal information without their explicit permission. This includes real full names, phone numbers, addresses, workplace or school details, photos of them, or any identifying details they have not made public on their Frienda profile or in the Telegram app. Doxxing (revealing someone’s personal info to harass or endanger them) is strictly forbidden. Additionally, no stalking or unwanted contact: if someone has blocked you or indicated they don’t want further interaction, do not try to circumvent that block or continue contacting them through other means. Use Frienda’s block or report features if someone is bothering you (and honor others’ use of those features).
No Spam or Solicitation: Frienda is for genuine personal connections, not for advertising or recruiting. You must not send unsolicited promotional messages, mass messages, or repeatedly post the same content. Commercial solicitation (trying to sell products, promote businesses, or drive people to other services) is not allowed unless we have expressly permitted a specific promotion (unlikely in this context). Chain letters, pyramid schemes, or any fraudulent schemes are forbidden. We aim to keep Frienda free of junk content – any behavior resembling spam (e.g., sending the same “check out my site” message to many users) will lead to warnings or bans.
Authenticity and Honesty: Be real. Do not create fake profiles or misrepresent who you are. Do not create an account for anyone other than yourself (no catfishing). Use your own photos on your profile – do not use someone else’s image or a celebrity’s photo as if it were you. All information in your profile should be accurate to the best of your knowledge. Do not deliberately mislead other users during conversations. Our community is built on trust; if we determine that you have seriously misled users or the platform (for example, lying about your identity, marital status, or intentions in a harmful way), we may terminate your account. (Note: Parody or obvious pseudonyms generally have no place on Frienda; this isn’t a platform for roleplay or anonymity used to mislead or harass others.)
Appropriate Content: Keep content and language appropriate. Do not post or send content that is obscene, pornographic, or excessively violent. Sexual content: Frienda is not a dating app, and explicit sexual content is unwelcome. Any form of sexual harassment (such as unsolicited sexual comments or images) will result in an immediate ban. You may discuss adult topics in context, but sharing pornography or graphic sexual content is disallowed. Violence and self-harm: Content that glorifies violence, self-harm, or suicide is prohibited. (It’s fine to offer support or discuss these issues carefully, but not to encourage harmful behavior.) We also ban any content that promotes illegal activities or extremist ideologies. Basically, content on Frienda should be roughly PG-13 and suitable for a general audience of adult women looking for friends.
One-on-One Chat Etiquette: If Frienda allows you to message other users (either within the app or by initiating an external Telegram chat), be respectful in private communications as well. All the guidelines against harassment, hate, and inappropriate content apply fully to private messages. Just because something is one-to-one doesn’t mean it can violate our rules. If a user reports abusive DMs, we will enforce the rules as if the behavior were public.
No Scamming or Malicious Activity: You must not use Frienda to deceive others out of money, sensitive information, or anything of value (no scams, phishing, or fraud). Also, do not distribute malware, viruses, or do anything to disrupt the Service or other users’ devices. Hacking, attempting to scrape user data, or reverse-engineering our software is prohibited. If you discover a security vulnerability or bug, report it to us responsibly (via our support contact) instead of exploiting it.
Conflict Resolution: In any community, disagreements can happen. If you find yourself in conflict with another user, do your best to resolve it calmly or disengage. If you’re not getting along with someone, you can remove them as a friend or stop communicating. If someone seriously crosses your boundaries or violates the rules, you can report them directly from their profile or contact Frienda support (see Section 7 for how to reach us). We will review reports and intervene or take action as needed. We encourage users not to engage in public drama or vigilantism (e.g., do not start “naming and shaming” someone in a public forum) – instead, let our team handle serious violations privately. We reserve the right to remove users who are creating significant conflict or discomfort for others, as outlined in Section 4 and Section 9.
These guidelines above are here to foster a friendly community, but they are not exhaustive. Their core purpose is to promote kindness, respect, and safety. By using Frienda, you agree to uphold these principles. We may update the Community Guidelines from time to time, and such updates will be effective once posted in the app or on our website.
