Protect Your Self & Kids

Thank you for choosing JadedLovers.com. Try to find a more honest dating site.

JadedLovers.com cares about your safety and wellbeing, and about the safety and wellbeing of your children.

Please be aware that JadedLovers.com does not attempt to ensure that each of its users possesses a background free of either blemishes or worse than blemishes. JADEDLOVERS.COM DOES NOT SCREEN ITS USERS OR CONDUCT ANY BACKGROUND CHECKS OF ITS USERS, CRIMINAL OR OTHERWISE, AS A CONDITION OF THEIR USING THE WEBSITE, NOR DOES JADEDLOVERS.COM ATTEMPT TO VERIFY THE STATEMENTS OF ITS USERS.

Criminal databases of residents of the United States follow various standards from state to state and county to county, and are often incomplete and out of date. Furthermore, JadedLovers.com prides itself on the fact that it attempts to provide to its users an international community of members, and there is currently no international criminal database. Many countries outside of the United States which do have their own national criminal databases make these databases available to only the government and/or legal authorities of those countries. Rather than give its users a false sense of security by providing what little criminal background information it can regarding members to whom it has such access, JadedLovers.com opts to perform no such investigations at all.

For this reason, it is critical that you take steps to protect yourself and your children from individuals who may attempt to use this website to do harm.

Just as you would if you were to meet someone new anywhere else, use caution, and always rely on your instincts – especially if you have children who are minors.

Remember, there is no substitute for acting with caution when communicating with any stranger who wants to meet you.

JadedLovers.com advocates moving slowly with parties which you meet through use of the website; refraining from giving them personal information about yourself until you feel it is completely safe to do so; and, if you have children who are minors, refraining from introducing them to any party which you meet through use of the website until you likewise feel it is completely safe to do so.

If through use of the website you meet a party which you feel is being dishonest with you, do not give them the benefit of the doubt. It’s better to be safe than sorry. Cease communication with them and look for another party.

Here are some other important tips to consider while using JadedLovers.com:

PROTECT YOURSELF

Protect Your Anonymity.

Remember, online dating is a unique experience. Unlike as is the case with a physical location, you have the potential to meet strangers wherein, to communicate with them after the initial meeting, you need not hand out your phone number or even your name. You have the ability to keep that information, and any other information, secret until you are ready to disclose it to the other party or parties. Use this ability to your advantage.

Do not create a username using your full name. Do not post personal information, such as your full name, phone number, home address, e-mail address, place of work, school name, or any other information which may be used to personally identify you, anywhere on the website, including your Profile. Do not share such information while using the website’s E-mail system until you have established a reasonable level of trust with the other party or parties. If through JadedLovers.com you meet any party which pressures you for such information or attempts in any way to trick you into revealing it, immediately cease communication with that party and report them to JadedLovers.com.

Always use caution when accessing your account from a public or shared computer. Do not allow others to view your password or other identifying information used when logging in.  Remember to always log out of the website when finished with your session.

Protect Your Money.

Be aware of scammers. Do not send money to someone you’ve just met online, regardless of that party’s reasons for the request. Do not give your credit card number, bank information, social security number, or any other personal financial information to someone you’ve just met online, regardless of that party’s reasons for the request, and do not post such information anywhere on the website, including your Profile. If through JadedLovers.com you meet any party which pressures you for such information or attempts in any way to trick you into revealing it, immediately cease communication with that party and report them to JadedLovers.com.

Be aware of any user who terminates their account and then quickly reappears with another account under a different name.

Remember, anyone who is able to commit identity theft can also falsify a dating profile.

Be Safe When You Meet Offline.

If you choose to have a face-to-face meeting with another member, always have your first meeting take place in a well-populated public location. Never have your first meeting take place in a private, secluded, or remote location. Always provide your own transportation to and from your first meeting. Never agree to be picked up at your home for your first meeting. If the party with which you plan to meet refuses to agree to these conditions, DO NOT meet with that party, immediately discontinue your communication with that party, and report that party to JadedLovers.com.

Always tell a friend or family member of your plans, including where you are going, what time you are going, and what time you will return. With this friend or family member, establish a unique code phrase which you can use to signal over the phone that you are in trouble and need their assistance.

Do Not Drink Heavily, and Do Not Use Recreational Drugs.

Do not do anything which would impair your judgment.

Do Not Leave Your Personal Items Unattended.

Always keep your personal items close to you to decrease the risk of your personal information being stolen. If you are drinking, keep your drink with you at all times so it can’t be tampered with.

Take Special Measures When Having a Long Distance First Meeting.

Stay in a hotel or with a long distance friend or family member. Do not stay in the home of the party which you’re meeting.

Use a taxi or other public transportation, or a rental car, to get around the long distance location.  Do not get into the personal vehicle of a person whom you’ve just met.

Remember to keep a friend or family member informed of your plans.
