COMMUNITY STANDARDS AND PROHIBITED CONDUCT

CONVERSATION AROUND CONCEPTION CHOICES

Our platform is designed to facilitate connections for various family formation paths. All users must respect others’ choices regarding conception, surrogacy, donation, or co-parenting arrangements. Judgment, criticism, or harassment regarding these choices is strictly prohibited.

COERCION

Any form of coercion, manipulation, or pressure tactics is strictly prohibited. All arrangements and agreements between users must be entered into freely and with informed consent. Any reported coercive behavior will result in immediate account termination.

APP HOPPING

To maintain the security and integrity of our community, we discourage “app hopping”, creating multiple accounts or using multiple fertility/family formation apps simultaneously to misrepresent yourself or your intentions. Users found engaging in deceptive practices across platforms may have their accounts terminated.

NO VPNS

The use of Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) or other methods to disguise your location or identity is prohibited. We require accurate location information to facilitate appropriate matches and ensure compliance with regional laws.

OTHER CHAT APPS

While we understand users may eventually move communications to other platforms, we strongly recommend keeping initial conversations within our app for safety and record-keeping. Just A Baby cannot protect users or verify communications that occur outside our platform.

DISCRIMINATION

Discrimination based on race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or any other protected characteristic is strictly prohibited. Our platform is inclusive and welcomes all individuals seeking to create families regardless of background.

NUDITY

Explicit nudity in profile photos or in communications is strictly prohibited. Profile images should be appropriate and respectful. Sharing of explicit images may result in immediate account termination and possible reporting to authorities.

CATFISHING

Misrepresenting your identity, using someone else’s photos, or creating fictional personas (“catfishing”) is strictly prohibited. All users must represent themselves honestly and accurately.

CRIMINAL BACKGROUNDS

Users with certain criminal backgrounds, especially those involving violence, sexual offenses, or fraud, are prohibited from using our platform. We reserve the right to conduct background checks and remove users with concerning criminal histories.

CREEPY SEXUAL MESSAGES

Our platform is for family formation, not dating or sexual connections. Sexually explicit, inappropriate, or harassing messages are strictly prohibited and will result in account termination.

DISCUSSION RE: DECLINING FERTILITY OR PROBLEMS

While discussing fertility challenges is appropriate, making unsolicited comments about another user’s fertility, age-related fertility decline, or reproductive issues is inappropriate and may constitute harassment.
