Safety & privacy

Your safety is the starting point

HamKuf is designed so that sincerity is protected and misuse is hard. Here is exactly what we do, and what we ask of you.

Verified identities

Members can submit an ID and selfie. Our team reviews every submission before a verified badge is shown, and the documents are never visible to other members.

You control your photos

Photos are blurred by default. You decide who can see them, and you can change that whenever you like.

Consent before contact

Nobody can message you out of the blue. Conversations start only from an accepted introduction.

Wali involvement

Invite your wali with a private link so a guardian can follow introductions and conversations. Always optional.

Mediator guidance

Trusted mediators introduce compatible people and help keep conversations respectful.

Honest AI

The AI assistant is always labelled as AI. It never pretends to be a person, and it is optional.

Reporting & moderation

Something wrong? Tell us.

Every profile and conversation has block and report tools. Reports are reviewed by our team, and accounts that break our rules can be restricted or removed. If you are in danger, contact your local emergency services first.

  • Report a profile or message in a few taps
  • Staff review of reports and verification
  • Block anyone, any time

Staying safe

A few sensible habits

  • Involve your family and wali early.
  • Keep conversations on HamKuf until you trust someone.
  • Never send money or share banking details, whatever the reason.
  • Meet only in public, with family aware of the plan.
  • Report anything that feels pressuring or dishonest.
