Responsible use

Use AI responsibly

iCupid can help with communication. It cannot replace consent, empathy, or judgement.

Review everything

AI can be wrong or unsuitable. Do not send something just because iCupid generated it.

Stay truthful

Do not impersonate, create a false identity, hide key facts, or mislead someone.

Respect boundaries

Do not pressure someone to reply, meet, share information, or keep talking.

No response is also information. Repeated unwanted contact may be harassment.

Protect privacy

Only upload relevant content you have the right to use.

Avoid submitting:

  • Intimate images or sexual content
  • Identity documents
  • Passwords or authentication codes
  • Banking or payment information
  • Private medical information
  • Home addresses
  • Information about children
  • Confidential workplace information
  • Content belonging to another person without permission

Not professional advice

iCupid does not provide medical, mental-health, legal, financial, safety, or emergency advice.

If someone may be in danger, contact emergency services or a qualified professional.

Adults only

iCupid is for adults aged 18+. Do not use it for romantic or sexual communication involving minors.

  • Harassment or stalking
  • Threats or intimidation
  • Fraud or scams
  • Blackmail or coercion
  • Impersonation
  • Non-consensual sexual content
  • Hate or discriminatory abuse
  • Exploitation
  • Circumventing another person’s boundaries
  • Illegal activity

AI Conversation Practice

AI practice characters are simulated. They have no real feelings or relationship with users.

Use practice to improve skills, not to replace human support or relationships.

Keep it human

Use iCupid to compare options, then speak honestly and respectfully.
