Community guidelines

Good company, shared boundaries

• Be respectful. Harassment, discrimination, threats, sexual comments and unwanted romantic approaches are not welcome.
• Ask before photographing someone or sharing their details. A name or email on an attendee list is not permission to contact them privately.
• No spam, scams, impersonation, commercial solicitation or misuse of member information.
• Accept a “no” without pressure. Leave people free to leave or decline conversation.

Meet in public

Choose the advertised public venue, tell someone you trust about your plans, arrange your own transport and keep control of belongings and drinks. You can leave at any time. Do not move a gathering to someone’s home without a separate, considered decision. Venue staff may be able to help with immediate concerns.

For immediate danger in the UK, call 999 or 112. The report queue and safety@circleloom.co.uk are not emergency services and have no promised response time.

Reporting and blocking

Email safety@circleloom.co.uk or, when signed in, report a gathering, an account identifier or a general concern. Reports are visible to the reporter and authorised admins only. Admins can assign themselves, record an action, resolve a report, restrict a reported account or lift restrictions after review.

Profile lets you block an account by its identifier. Blocking prevents new joining when either you or the assigned host blocks the other. Circleloom has no private messages or attendee directory to hide. A block does not cancel existing reservations, hide public events or ensure you will not share a venue with another attendee. Cancel in My Plans or report a concern if needed.

Adult eligibility and appeals

Confirming you are 18+ is self-declaration, not verification. Report a suspected underage account privately; do not investigate or publish accusations yourself. An admin should review proportionate evidence and restrict participation while a substantiated concern is investigated.

Restrictions prevent joining and hosting, cancel future active places and leave a route to appeal in Profile. Appeals and disputed reports need fair human review. The operator must appoint reviewers and escalation cover before launch.
