We've thought about your safety so you don't have to.
Every decision at Flare starts with one question — does this keep our members safer? Here's exactly what we've built, and what you can do.
Protection built into every layer.
Photo Verification
A real-time selfie check confirms you match your photos. Verified members get a badge visible to everyone.
ID Verification
Members can submit a government-issued ID for an additional layer of trust. Optional, but visible on your profile.
Photo Moderation
Every photo is screened before it goes live. Explicit content, AI-generated images, and catfish photos are blocked automatically.
AI Moderation
Our systems scan profiles, photos, and messages for harmful content around the clock — before it reaches you.
Human Review
Every report is reviewed by a real person on our team — not an algorithm. Standard cases within 24 hours.
Encrypted Messaging
All messages are encrypted in transit. We do not sell your conversation data to third parties. Ever.
Always in control.
Anonymous Reporting
Flag any profile or message in one tap. The person you report is never told it was you. Our team reviews every single report.
Instant, Silent Block
Block someone and they vanish — from your feed, your matches, your world. No notification sent. No trace left.
Date Check-In
Set a check-in before you go on a date. A trusted contact gets notified with your plans — and an alert if they don't hear from you.
Profile Visibility Controls
Control who sees you. Pause your profile, hide your distance, or go incognito — you decide how visible you are.
Safe dating starts before the date.
Always meet in public first
Choose a busy, public venue for your first few dates. Never meet at your home or theirs until you know and trust them.
Tell someone where you're going
Use the Date Check-In feature or simply let a friend know your plans, where you'll be, and when you expect to be back.
Video call before you meet
A quick video call before a first date confirms your match is who they say they are. Trust what you see.
Never send money
No matter the story, never send money to someone you haven't met in person. Report anyone who asks immediately.
Trust your instincts
If something feels off, it probably is. Unmatch, block, and report — you never owe anyone an explanation.
Something feel wrong?
