Zeeën Community, Safety & Moderation Framework

Last updated: 2 October 2026

Applies globally.

These Community Guidelines describe behavioural expectations for users of Zeeën and form part of Zeeën's acceptable use framework.

See /acceptable-use and /user-safety.

Part 1 — Community Guidelines

1. Our Purpose

Zeeën exists to solve the last mile of real-world connection. It reflects moments of proximity between people who have chosen to be visible.

Chat opens only after both people have waved at each other, and silence is still a complete answer. It never shows anyone's location to other members. It does not encourage pressure or pursuit.

Zeeën is built for:

  • Friendship
  • Community
  • Networking
  • Creative discovery
  • Serendipity

2. Core Principles

2.1 Consent-Based Visibility

  • You appear only if you choose to be visible.
  • You can turn visibility off at any time.
  • No one owes anyone interaction.

2.2 Respect for Silence

A wave is optional. A response is optional. Silence is a complete answer.

2.3 Real-World Conduct Still Applies

Zeeën reflects proximity. It does not change appropriate real-world behaviour.

2.4 Safety Is Foundational

Zeeën is designed to minimise misuse through:

  • No exact location display
  • No historical map trails
  • Chat only after both people have waved
  • Short visibility windows

Part 2 — Prohibited Behaviour

Violations may result in immediate suspension or permanent removal.

1. Harassment & Intimidation

Prohibited:

  • Repeated waving after no response
  • Attempting to confront someone offline after rejection
  • Threats, coercion, pressure
  • Following someone physically after discovery

Zero tolerance.

2. Stalking Behaviour

Prohibited:

  • Using Zeeën to monitor a person's movements
  • Waiting in specific locations to repeatedly appear in someone's proximity
  • Creating alternate accounts after being blocked
  • Coordinated targeting of an individual

Accounts engaging in stalking behaviour are permanently banned.

3. Hate, Extremism & Violence

Prohibited:

  • Terrorist organisations (as defined by applicable sanctions lists)
  • Criminal gang references
  • Hate groups
  • Racist, sexist, extremist ideology
  • Violent threats or incitement

4. Sexual Misconduct

Prohibited:

  • Sexual harassment
  • Explicit content in profile images
  • Solicitation
  • Sexualisation of minors

Users must meet the minimum age for where they are: 16 in Australia and New Zealand, and 18 in Singapore, the United States and everywhere else. Adults and under 18s can't message each other.

Any sexual exploitation involving minors results in:

  • Immediate permanent ban
  • Preservation of evidence
  • Reporting to appropriate authorities

5. Impersonation & Deception

Prohibited:

  • Pretending to be another person
  • Using stolen photos
  • Creating accounts for harassment
  • Holding more than one account. One person, one account: duplicate accounts are detected during verification and closed.
  • Using a verified name that is not your own, or buying, selling or sharing verified accounts
  • Using fake or extra accounts to collect referral rewards. The rewards are withdrawn and the accounts closed.

6. Commercial Abuse

Prohibited:

  • Spam
  • MLM / pyramid schemes
  • Unauthorised mass promotion
  • Scams

Businesses must use official Zeeën advertising tools.

Part 3 — Safety System

This section is for governance transparency.

1. Visibility Controls

All users can:

  • Toggle visibility instantly
  • Activate Invisible Mode
  • Block instantly
  • Report instantly

Profiles automatically expire from active proximity feeds after a limited window.

2. Location Safety Design

Zeeën:

  • Does not display exact GPS coordinates
  • Does not show live map pins of users
  • Does not store public movement history
  • Uses approximate proximity zones

Sharing your location is optional. It is only used to fill the nearby feeds, and it is never shown on your profile or shared with other members. Without it, those feeds stay empty and everything else works as normal.

3. Moderation

Zeeën operates a layered moderation approach:

  • Every profile photo is checked automatically before it appears, for a clear face and for unsafe content, and our team reviews any photo the check flags
  • Profiles are screened against a prohibited-words list and rejected or excluded where they match
  • Reports are reviewed by the team with human oversight

4. Enforcement

Severity determines action:

  • Level 1: Warning
  • Level 2: Temporary Suspension
  • Level 3: Permanent Ban
  • Level 4: Law Enforcement Referral

Zeeën reserves unilateral removal rights to protect users.

Part 4 — Singapore Compliance (PDPA-Aligned)

Zeeën complies with the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) of Singapore.

Key safeguards:

  • Explicit consent required for location processing
  • Clear disclosure of data use
  • Right to access personal data
  • Right to correction
  • Right to withdraw consent
  • Data minimisation practices
  • Purpose limitation
  • Secure storage controls

Zeeën does not sell personal location data.

Cross-border transfers comply with PDPA safeguards.

Part 5 — Australia Alignment (eSafety & Privacy)

Zeeën aligns with Australian online safety and privacy expectations by focusing on:

  • Clear reporting pathways
  • Rapid removal processes for severe harm
  • Youth protection standards
  • Harm minimisation systems
  • No map-style exposure

Part 6 — Off-Platform Conduct

Chat in Zeeën opens only after both people have waved at each other, and any conversation can be reported from inside it.

If misconduct occurs on external platforms after Zeeën discovery:

  • Users may report origin context
  • Repeated abuse originating from Zeeën discovery may result in suspension
  • Pattern-based abuse may trigger permanent removal

Zeeën will cooperate with lawful investigations where required.

Part 7 — Crisis Response Protocol

If credible harm risk is identified:

  1. Immediate suspension
  2. Evidence preservation
  3. Escalation to safety lead
  4. Law enforcement referral if required
  5. Victim support communication

Safety overrides growth.

Part 8 — Business & Advertiser Safety

Advertisers must:

  • Complete verification
  • Avoid sensitive targeting
  • Follow creative guidelines
  • Avoid misleading claims

Part 9 — Community Standard Summary

Zeeën works because:

  • Visibility is optional
  • Respect is mandatory
  • Silence means no
  • Safety comes first

If you misuse Zeeën, you lose access.
