How we keep it safe
- The characters are fictional, never a real person. They do not replace friends, family or professionals.
- An independent filter spots messages of distress and replies out of character with these helplines.
- Adults only. No minors, no coercion, no family members in romantic scenes, no explicit content, no images.
- The characters always ask for your consent and accept a no.
- Take a break whenever you like. The service never pressures you to stay.
