Safety Tips
Your safety is our priority
At Swayamvarams, we're committed to providing a safe and secure environment for you to find your life partner. Please read these important safety guidelines carefully and follow them when using our platform.
In Case of Emergency
If you feel unsafe or threatened, contact local authorities immediately. If you experience harassment or abuse on our platform, report it to us at safety@swayamvarams.comor use the in-app reporting feature.
Online Safety
Protect Your Personal Information
Don't share your full name, home address, workplace details, or financial information until you've established trust. Keep communication within the platform initially.
Use Strong Passwords
Create a unique, strong password for your Swayamvarams account. Never share your password with anyone, and enable two-factor authentication if available.
Be Careful with Photos
Only share photos you're comfortable with. Avoid sharing photos that reveal your exact location, license plates, or other identifying information.
Guard Your Phone Number
Don't share your personal phone number immediately. Use the platform's messaging system until you feel comfortable and have verified the person's identity.
Meeting in Person
Meet in Public Places
Always meet for the first few times in busy, public places like cafes, restaurants, or shopping centers. Avoid isolated locations or meeting at someone's home.
Tell Someone Where You're Going
Always inform a trusted friend or family member about your plans, including where you're going, who you're meeting, and when you expect to return.
Arrange Your Own Transportation
Drive yourself or use your own transportation. Don't accept rides from someone you've just met, and never share your home address on the first meeting.
Stay Sober
Keep a clear head during meetings. Be mindful of your alcohol consumption and never leave your drink unattended.
Trust Your Instincts
If something feels wrong or uncomfortable, leave immediately. You don't owe anyone an explanation. Your safety comes first.
Warning Signs & Red Flags
Too Good to Be True
Be wary of profiles that seem perfect or too polished. Scammers often use fake photos and create idealized personas to gain trust.
Asks for Money
NEVER send money or financial help to someone you've met online, regardless of their story. This is a common scam tactic. Report immediately.
Rushes Intimacy or Commitment
Be cautious of anyone who professes strong feelings very quickly or pressures you to move off the platform or meet immediately.
Refuses Video Calls
If someone consistently avoids video calls or meeting in person while maintaining online contact, they may be hiding their true identity.
Inconsistent Stories
Pay attention if someone's story changes or details don't add up. This could indicate dishonesty about their identity or intentions.
Aggressive or Controlling Behavior
Watch for signs of possessiveness, jealousy, or attempts to control or isolate you from friends and family, even in early conversations.
Financial Safety
Never Send Money
Do not send money, gifts, or financial assistance to anyone you meet on the platform, regardless of the reason or how convincing their story may be.
Protect Financial Information
Never share bank account details, credit card numbers, PINs, or other financial information with potential matches.
Be Wary of Investment Schemes
Scammers may try to involve you in investment opportunities or business ventures. Always verify independently before making any financial decisions.
Privacy Protection
Control Your Profile Visibility
Review your privacy settings regularly. Control who can see your profile and personal information.
Google Your Date
Do some research before meeting. Search their name, look them up on social media, and verify the information they've shared with you.
Reverse Image Search
Use reverse image search tools to verify that profile photos haven't been stolen from somewhere else online.
Reporting Concerns
Report Suspicious Behavior
If you encounter suspicious profiles, scams, harassment, or inappropriate behavior, report it immediately using our in-app reporting feature or email safety@swayamvarams.com
Block and Report
Use the block feature to prevent unwanted contact. Blocking someone also removes them from seeing your profile.
We Take Action
All reports are reviewed promptly. We take appropriate action including warnings, account suspension, or permanent bans for policy violations.
Family Involvement
Involve Your Family
Keep your family informed about your matchmaking journey. Their perspective and support can be valuable in making important decisions.
Verify Background Information
When things get serious, consider doing proper background verification through trusted channels. Verify employment, education, and family details.
