Dating Safety & Helpful Tips
Reading and using the following tips will make all the difference
to your success in using this service and finding your ideal partner - please
read them carefully.
In terms of safety, meeting on the Net is very similar to meeting offline. As
long as the same standard dating precautions are followed, online daters can feel
truly at ease while getting to know each other. The main thing to remember: trust
your instincts and use common sense just like you would offline.
DatingConnection goes to extra lengths to ensure that its site stays
clean and safe for all users. We do our best to monitor and block
emails of anyone who uses profanity, hustles or is not serious about finding
a dance partner or relationship. We also keep all contacts between members
onsite so your email address remains confidential.
 Before
you get started, here are a few common sense guidelines: |
Remember that
you are in complete control of your online experience at all times. Whether you
are searching for a dance partner or looking for something more serious, you can
remain completely anonymous until you feel ready.
You are also in control
when it comes time to decide whether or not to take an online relationship offline.
Plus, you have an advantage online because you can get to know each other before
you decide to even meet. Remember that you don't need to take anything further
than the computer or telephone until you feel completely at ease. Go at a pace
you feel comfortable with!
If you do decide to meet face to face, choose
a public place and provide your own transportation to and from the meeting place.
Tell a friend where you're going and check in with them when you return home.
Never include your personal contact information in your profile, especially telephone
numbers, email address, home address or your last name. Only give out more personal
information when your instincts tell you this is someone you can trust. It's alright
to take your time.
Ask a lot of questions and be alert to inconsistencies.
Stay clear of members who won't take no for an answer or who pressure you for
any kind of personal information. Serious online daters will respect your space
and allow you to take your time.
Even with our strong effort to ensure
the quality of our sites, we cannot guarantee perfection in the system. To deal
with this, we have a 24 hour customer care staff, and we ask members to email
our support department if they see anything strange so that we can research it.
If someone asks you to go to their personal web site or asks you for money, use
common sense not to oblige and then report the situation to us.
If someone
gives you a phone number with a strange area code, check it out to make sure it's
not a charge number before you make the call.
Using your own good judgment
is your best bet because ultimately you are responsible for your personal dating
experience. Trust your instincts and then have fun with the right people!
