Private venue confirmation helps both people respect the public plan. It does not guarantee safety, identity, or behavior. Your match never sees your exact location or live movement.

This public plan works for me if the timing still feels good.
That works. Let’s keep it simple: coffee first, then decide if we want a short walk nearby.

Date idea

Low-key public meetup

Public, staffed, easy to arrive and leave from.

Sounds good. Low-key and public is exactly my speed.

Plan kept in Steady

Close kindly. Help future matches stay thoughtful.

Post-date review

A quick private review keeps Steady honest.

A mismatch can simply close the match.

No spark Felt off Needs help
What kind of feedback is this?
How Steady handles fairness

Simple promise

Feelings close matches. Account action needs behavior patterns or review.

If things became intimate

Both people privately answer. No proof is requested. Mutual intimacy starts a kind 2-month matching pause.

Review path

AI sorts. People decide.

No-fit feedback closes the match privately.

Private Review Appeal
Specific signals

Kept light on purpose

Arrived Text kept Reviewed

Steady notice

Public Meetup Safety Notice

Steady is a platform for meeting people. We are not the organizer, host, supervisor, chaperone, insurer, or guarantor of any offline meetup. If you choose to meet someone, you do so voluntarily and are responsible for your own decisions, transportation, communication, belongings, and personal safety.

Meet publicly

Choose cafes, restaurants, or other public places. Avoid homes, hotels, private residences, vehicles, secluded places, or changing to a private location.

Stay in control

You can cancel, reschedule, leave, or use Easy Exit at any time. You do not need to explain yourself to your match.

Use judgment

Steady tools, check-ins, reports, and reviews are support features. They do not guarantee safety, identity, compatibility, honesty, or future behavior.

Report concerns

Reports help Steady review platform behavior, but Steady cannot control what users do outside the app.

Prototype legal framework

Terms & Safety Framework — Draft for Counsel Review

Prototype legal framework - not final legal advice. Must be reviewed by counsel before launch.

Acceptance of Terms

By creating an account, continuing to use Steady, or confirming a public meetup, users accept the current Terms, Privacy Policy, Community Rules, and Public Meetup Safety Notice.

Eligibility: 18+ only

Steady is for adults 18 and older. Users must provide truthful account information and may be asked to re-confirm eligibility or account ownership.

User Responsibility for Interactions

Steady provides tools that allow users to discover, communicate with, and voluntarily arrange public meetups with other users. Steady does not organize, host, supervise, control, chaperone, insure, or guarantee any offline meetup. You are solely responsible for your interactions with other users, including your decision to communicate, share information, travel, meet, remain at, or leave any meetup.

Voluntary Offline Meetups

Public meetups are voluntary user decisions. Users may cancel, reschedule, leave, or decline to attend at any time.

No Safety Guarantee

Steady offers privacy-first planning and support tools. These tools are not a guarantee that a meetup, user, route, venue, or conversation will be safe.

No Identity or Background-Check Guarantee

Profile care signals, public-web checks, and account review tools are limited support signals. They are not criminal background checks, identity guarantees, or promises about a person's character.

Public Check-In Disclaimer

Public Check-In, venue confirmation, safety prompts, reports, reviews, and moderation tools are support features only. They are not guarantees of safety, identity, background, character, intentions, compatibility, truthfulness, location accuracy, or future conduct.

Assumption of Risk

To the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, you voluntarily assume the risks associated with communicating with and meeting other users, including risks related to personal safety, emotional distress, property loss, transportation, venue conditions, misrepresentation, misconduct, or unlawful behavior by others.

Release of Claims

To the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, you agree that Steady and its owners, operators, affiliates, employees, contractors, service providers, and agents are not responsible for user conduct online or offline, third-party venues, transportation, or events arising from voluntary meetups between users.

Limitation of Liability

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where it cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers, releases, or limitations of liability, so some terms may not apply to every user.

No Duty to Monitor or Intervene

Steady may receive, review, and act on reports in its discretion, but Steady does not promise to monitor every user, message, meetup, location signal, or interaction. If you believe you are in danger, leave the situation if safe to do so and contact local emergency services.

User Conduct Rules

Users may not harass, stalk, threaten, impersonate, scam, pressure, mislead, or push others off app. Users must respect boundaries and use the app lawfully.

Reports, Reviews, and Account Restrictions

Steady may use reports, repeated patterns, appeal context, and review notes to restrict or remove accounts. Ordinary mismatch, rejection, or awkward chemistry should not be treated like misconduct by itself.

Emergency Disclaimer

Steady is not an emergency service. If you believe you are in danger, leave the situation if safe to do so and contact local emergency services.

Third-Party Venues Disclaimer

Restaurants, parks, shops, transit, parking, and other third-party places are not owned, operated, supervised, or controlled by Steady.

Privacy and Location Data Summary

Production builds should collect only the data needed for account, matching, public planning, venue confirmation, safety support, billing, moderation, and legal compliance. Location should be limited to scheduled meetup support and clear user controls.

Governing Law Placeholder

Production counsel should choose governing law, venue, and regional disclosures based on the launch entity, markets, and user locations.

Dispute Resolution Placeholder

Production counsel should decide whether arbitration, class-action waiver, small-claims carveout, opt-out rights, or court venue language is appropriate and enforceable.

Counsel Review Required

Final Terms, Privacy Policy, Safety Notice, Community Rules, waiver language, and policy acceptance logging must be reviewed by qualified counsel before launch.

Venue check

Use this when venue presence looks unclear.

Both people can confirm they are near the agreed public venue. End date kindly or Change public venue closes things cleanly. Your exact location and movement are never shown to your match.

Confirm the venue, not constantly.

Steady Check-In confirms venue presence during the scheduled meetup window. It is not live tracking and not a safety guarantee. Your match will never see your exact location or live movement.

Used only during the meetup window Confirms venue presence, not constant tracking or supervision Exact location is never shown to your match You can cancel, change plans, or use Easy Exit anytime

Grace period

GPS can be imperfect. Take a moment to clarify what is happening before any review.

Signal unclear

The venue check could not confirm clearly. Please choose the closest option.

Gentle dealbreakers

Venue assist

Use the lightest help that works.

Neutral script: “Could I settle up and wait near the front?” Staff do not confront the other person by default. Ask for a visible waiting spot or side exit if needed.

What they see

The other person receives a neutral “date is wrapping up” note and is asked to stay at the venue for a few minutes.

End date kindly

Pick the option that fits the moment. Your reason stays private.

What they see

A neutral message that the date is ending. No rating or private reason is shared.

How trust works

Steady combines public-first planning, profile care signals, check-ins, text-only chat, and private reviews.

Public Check-In is a support tool, not a safety guarantee. Reviews look for behavior patterns, not one awkward vibe. You are responsible for deciding whether and when to meet. Members can request correction, deletion, and appeal.

Profile care check

✓ Verified care check completed with consent ✓ Public presence reviewed without storing face templates ✓ No exact-image misuse or impersonation matches found ✓ No unresolved public conduct signals found

This is a warm confidence signal, not a promise about someone’s full life.
