Privacy & Safety

Your privacy

LEASH is designed with privacy at its core. We understand that discretion matters.

  • Anonymous profiles — you choose your display name. No real names are required or shown to other users.
  • No public indexing — profiles are not indexed by search engines. Your presence on LEASH stays on LEASH.
  • Minimal data collection — we only collect what's necessary to run the service. We don't sell your data to third parties.

Blocking users

If someone makes you uncomfortable, you can block them instantly.

  1. Go to the user's profile
  2. Tap the menu icon (three dots) in the top-right corner
  3. Select "Block"
  4. Confirm your choice

What happens when you block someone:

  • They can no longer see your profile
  • They cannot send you messages or Roses
  • Any existing conversations are hidden
  • They are not notified that you blocked them

Reporting users

If you encounter behavior that violates our guidelines, please report it.

  1. Go to the user's profile or the specific content
  2. Tap the menu icon (three dots)
  3. Select "Report"
  4. Choose a reason and add optional details
  5. Submit your report

What happens after you report:

  • Our team reviews every report within 24 hours
  • The reported user is not told who reported them
  • If the report is confirmed, action is taken (warning, suspension, or permanent ban)
  • You'll receive a notification when your report has been reviewed

Content guidelines

LEASH has a zero-tolerance policy for:

  • Harassment or threats — aggressive, intimidating, or threatening behavior
  • Minors — all users must be 18+. Any content involving minors results in an immediate permanent ban and law enforcement referral
  • Non-consensual content — all interactions on LEASH must be consensual
  • Illegal activity — anything that violates applicable law
  • Spam or fraud — fake profiles, scams, or deceptive behavior

Violations are handled seriously. Depending on severity, consequences range from a warning to permanent account removal.
