KUPIKUPI Content Policy
KUPI is built around real people out at real places. This policy covers the comments, photos, profiles and verification material that users add to the app.
What is not allowed
- Nudity or sexual content, and anything involving minors.
- Harassment, threats, bullying, hate speech, or content that targets a person or group.
- Violence, or content that promotes illegal activity or dangerous behaviour.
- Spam, advertising by non advertisers, scams, or misleading claims about an event or venue.
- Photos of people taken or shared without their knowledge in a way that exposes or embarrasses them.
- Fake profiles, impersonation, or using someone else's selfie or documents for verification.
- Trying to farm KUPS with fake accounts, repeated reinstalls, or fake activity.
- In a Squad chat: sharing phone numbers, email addresses, social media names or links, asking others for theirs, or pressuring anyone to meet. Messages that contain contact details are blocked.
Photos and verification
Photos are reviewed by the KUPI team before they appear, and stay visible for 24 hours after approval. A photo posted as being at a venue should be taken at that venue. Verification selfies are seen only by KUPI staff for review. Photos you send in a Squad chat are not reviewed first, so only the people in that Squad see them, and they can be reported.
Squads
A Squad is for meeting people at a public event. You are shown by a nickname. The person who started it can remove anyone. In a Blind Date you see usernames only once everyone is at the venue. Be respectful, meet in public, and leave if you feel unsafe. You can report or block anyone from inside the chat. Reported messages are kept for up to 30 days so the team can review them.
Reporting and blocking
Every comment, photo, listing, profile and Squad message can be reported from the app, and you can block any person so you no longer see their content. Reports are reviewed by the KUPI team. The person you report is not told it was you.
What happens when something breaks the rules
- The content is removed.
- The account may be suspended, which stops posting, commenting and earning, and ends active sessions.
- Repeat or serious breaches can lead to the account being closed, and KUPS tied to abuse may be removed.
If you think a decision was a mistake, email info@kupiapp.com and we will look again.
Hosts and advertisers
A venue is checked by the KUPI team before it can add events or buy placements. Promoted events are always labelled "Promoted". Hosts must describe their event honestly, and a host badge on a comment means the account is a venue or event host.
