Community Guidelines

Effective: April 21, 2026

My Treat is a platform for discovering and organizing group activities in your city. These guidelines exist to keep the community safe, respectful, and fun for everyone. Violating these guidelines may result in warnings, temporary suspension, or permanent removal from the platform.

1. What My Treat Is (and Isn't)

2. Posting Rules

When creating a post, you must:

• Be honest: Accurately describe the activity, location, and any costs
• Keep it public: All meetups must take place at public venues or in group settings
• Respect the format: Use the correct post type (Hosting, Paid Experience, or Looking)
• Use appropriate language: No profanity, slurs, sexual language, or discriminatory content
• Include real photos: Photos should represent the actual activity or venue. Stock photos and misleading images are not allowed

3. For Paid Experiences

If you're hosting a Paid Experience:

• Clearly state the per-person cost and what it covers
• The activity must take place at a public venue
• Payment is handled directly between participants at the venue — My Treat does not process payments
• You must sign an attestation that the event follows these guidelines
• New hosts may require admin review before their paid posts go live

4. Communication Standards

When chatting with other users:

• Be respectful and courteous
• Do not send unsolicited sexual, threatening, or harassing messages
• Use in-app chat as your default for coordinating with other attendees. Sharing phone numbers for day-of logistics is fine once both of you have confirmed you're attending the same meetup — and don't pressure anyone for their number if they haven't offered it
• Keep conversations relevant to the planned activity

5. Safety First

Your safety is our top priority. We provide several tools and we expect everyone to use them responsibly:

Trust scores

Every user has a trust score that reflects their reliability and community standing. Scores are affected by reviews, cancellations, and reports. Check trust scores before accepting connections.

Photo verification

Verified users have confirmed their identity through our photo verification process. While optional, verification builds trust and is strongly encouraged.

Blocking and reporting

If you encounter inappropriate behavior, use the in-app tools to:

• Block a user to prevent all further contact
• Report a user with a description of the issue

Reports are reviewed promptly. False or malicious reports are themselves a violation of these guidelines.

Meeting safely

• Always meet in public places — every My Treat meetup is at a public venue, not a private residence
• Tell someone you trust where you're going
• Trust your instincts — if something feels off, leave
• If you're using your own car to carpool, share a public pickup point (a coffee shop, a parking lot, a transit stop) rather than your home or work

6. Cancellation Policy

Each post has a cancellation policy chosen by the host:

• Flexible: Cancel anytime with no penalty
• Standard: 24-hour grace period before trust score impact
• Strict: Full commitment expected — cancellations affect trust score

Repeated no-shows or last-minute cancellations may result in account restrictions regardless of the chosen policy.

7. Prohibited Content

The following content is not allowed anywhere on the platform:

• Nudity, sexually explicit material, or sexual solicitation
• Hate speech, discrimination, or slurs targeting any group
• Threats of violence or encouragement of self-harm
• Spam, scams, phishing, or deceptive content
• Illegal drug references or promotion of illegal activity
• Content involving minors
• Impersonation of other users or public figures
• Sharing others' private information without consent

8. Enforcement

Violations are handled based on severity:

• Warning: First-time minor violations receive a written warning
• Temporary suspension: Repeated violations or moderate offenses result in a time-limited suspension
• Muting: Users may be temporarily restricted from messaging
• Permanent ban: Serious violations (threats, harassment, illegal activity) result in immediate permanent removal

All enforcement decisions are at our discretion. Attempting to circumvent enforcement actions (creating new accounts after a ban) will result in immediate removal.

9. Changes

We may update these guidelines as the community grows. Material changes will be communicated via in-app notification. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
