One rule underneath all the others: be the kind of person you would want as a friend. Snimbl exists for genuine, platonic friendship between adults. Everything below follows from that.
These Guidelines apply everywhere on Snimbl — your profile, your photos, and your messages. They form part of our Terms & Conditions, and breaking them can cost you your account.
Zero tolerance. We have zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive members. Anything in this section can result in immediate, permanent removal — without warning.
Snimbl is not a dating app. Do not use it to pursue romantic or sexual connections. No flirting with people who have not invited it, no sexual comments, no unsolicited intimate images. Sending sexual content to someone who has not asked for it will get your account removed.
No bullying, threats, intimidation, stalking, or sustained unwanted contact. No pile-ons. No abuse of a person for who they are.
No slurs or demeaning content targeting race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, disability, age, sex, gender identity or sexual orientation. There is no "just joking" exception.
No pretending to be someone else, using another person's photographs, or misrepresenting your age, gender or circumstances. One account per person.
Never ask another member for money, gifts, cryptocurrency, investment, or financial details — and never send any. This is the most common form of abuse on platforms like ours, and any account doing it is removed permanently on the first report we can verify.
No advertising, recruiting, multi-level marketing, promoting your business or channel, or bulk-messaging members. Snimbl is not a customer list.
No content depicting or promoting violence, self-harm, suicide, eating disorders, illegal drugs, or weapons. No illegal activity of any kind.
Snimbl is strictly 18+. Any content that sexualises, endangers or exploits a minor results in immediate permanent removal and a report to the relevant authorities. See our Child Safety Standards. If you believe someone under 18 is using Snimbl, email safety@snimbl.com straight away.
Do not post anyone else's address, workplace, phone number, or photographs of them without their consent.
Meeting up is the point of Snimbl — but you are meeting a stranger, and we do not run background checks or verify anyone's identity. Every time, for the first several meetings:
If someone is in immediate danger, call 000. Then tell us at safety@snimbl.com so we can act on the account.
You always have two tools, and you never need a reason to use them.
Blocking someone is not rude and does not require an explanation. Use it freely.
We review every report, and we aim to do it within 24 hours. Photographs are also screened automatically for explicit content before they appear.
Depending on what we find, we may:
For serious breaches — safety, harassment, scams, or anything involving a minor — we skip straight to permanent removal.
If you are not satisfied with how we have handled a report, or if you are experiencing serious online abuse, you can also report to the eSafety Commissioner at esafety.gov.au. eSafety administers Australia's adult cyber-abuse and image-based-abuse schemes and can require the removal of material in some circumstances.
Appeals. If we have actioned your account and you think we made a mistake, email safety@snimbl.com within 14 days with your account email and what you would like us to reconsider. A person will read it.
Adult friendship is genuinely hard to build, and it asks people to be a bit vulnerable. The whole community depends on that being safe to do. Thank you for helping keep it that way.
