Consent
Understanding Consent
At Cufy, we believe that every healthy connection begins with mutual consent. Consent is an ongoing agreement between two people, not a one-time decision. It should always be clear, enthusiastic, and respected — in every conversation, message, or meeting. Whether online or in person, consent ensures that both individuals feel comfortable, understood, and secure. Remember, silence or hesitation does not mean yes. Always ask, always listen, and never pressure anyone to continue a conversation or interaction they're not ready for.
Respectful Communication
Cufy promotes communication built on empathy, patience, and respect. Every interaction should be honest, kind, and free from judgment. Respectful communication means recognizing tone, body language, and emotional cues — both online and offline. Treat others how you would like to be treated, and be mindful of cultural differences, personal experiences, and sensitivities. Healthy connections are born when people feel safe expressing themselves without fear or discomfort.
Setting Boundaries
Boundaries are essential to emotional safety. They define what feels comfortable and what doesn't — and at Cufy, we encourage everyone to establish them early. When someone shares their boundary, honor it completely without debate or persuasion. Likewise, express your own limits clearly and confidently. True connection happens when two people respect each other's personal space, timing, and readiness. Remember: respecting boundaries builds trust, while crossing them breaks it instantly.
Consent in Digital Dating
Digital interactions need the same level of respect as in-person ones. Never share or request intimate photos, videos, or personal details without explicit consent. Cufy enforces strict community guidelines that protect members from unsolicited content or pressure. Understand that everyone has a right to digital privacy, and boundaries apply even behind screens. Being responsible online is a reflection of who you are — and at Cufy, responsibility defines respect.
