Slingshot Age Assurance

Minimum age

You must be at least 15 years old to create a Slingshot account. Slingshot lets you meet and chat with people you do not know yet, so we keep it for people who are old enough to do that safely. If we learn that an account belongs to someone under 15, we close it and delete its data.

How we check age

• Date of birth: you enter your date of birth when you sign up. You set it once and cannot change it later, and we refuse sign-ups under the minimum age.
• Apple age range (iOS): where Apple's Declared Age Range applies, we ask Apple whether you are in an eligible age range. If Apple reports that you are under 15, or you choose not to share your age range, you cannot sign up. We only use the answer for this check and do not store it.
• Selfie verification: every profile must pass a live selfie check. You follow on-screen prompts to show that you are a real person, and we match your face to your profile picture. You must pass it again when you change your profile picture.
• AI age verification: we automatically verify each user's age from their photos using AI.
• Blocking: we block accounts that do not pass these checks, or whose user does not look like the age they declared.

Age groups

Slingshot only connects people of a similar age. Users aged 15 to 17 only see and chat with other users aged 15 to 17, and adults only see and chat with adults. Your age range in Discover is set by your age group, and you cannot widen it. This applies to Discover and to starting a chat.

What other people see

Your profile shows your name, age, gender, photos and photo bios, and your country and city. Slingshot never shows your date of birth, your exact position or your distance from anyone.

Reporting someone's age

If you think someone is not the age their profile says, report them with the "Wrong age" reason. You can report from the "..." menu on their Discover card or in your chat with them, or by tapping "Report" on their chat request. Reporting also blocks the person. Our moderation team reviews reports within 24 hours. You can also email csam@vybe.social.

Parents and guardians

If you believe your child is using Slingshot and is under 15, or you have any concern about your child's safety, email csam@vybe.social. Tell us the name shown on the profile and, if you can, the email address of the Apple or Google account used to sign in. We will review the account and close it if it belongs to someone under the minimum age. Users can also delete their own account at any time, as described in our account deletion instructions.
