Drybaby, Inc. Community Guidelines

Last Updated:  October 1, 2025

1. Introduction

Welcome to Drybaby, a social networking platform dedicated to fostering meaningful, alcohol-free socializing through personal profiles, photo sharing, messaging, group chats, and third-party or user-hosted event postings (collectively, the “Service”), accessible via our mobile application, website, or other platforms (collectively, the “Platform”). These Community Standards (“Standards”) outline the expected behaviors and content to ensure a safe, inclusive, and respectful environment for all users.

By using the Service, you agree to comply with these Standards, our Terms of Use, and Privacy Policy. Violations may result in content removal, account suspension, or termination. We reserve the right to update these Standards at any time, with changes effective upon posting to the Platform. Your continued use constitutes acceptance of the updated Standards.

Our Mission: To create a vibrant, alcohol-free community where users can connect, share, and participate in sober social experiences with respect and authenticity.

2. Core Principles

Drybaby’s community is built on the following principles:

• Respect and Inclusivity: Treat all users with kindness, empathy, and dignity, embracing diversity in race, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, age, disability, or background.
• Safety: Prioritize the well-being of the community, both online and at in-person events, by fostering a harassment-free environment.
• Alcohol-Free Commitment: Uphold our mission by avoiding any promotion or discussion of alcohol or other intoxicating substances.
• Authenticity: Be genuine in your interactions; misrepresentation undermines trust.
• Positive Engagement: Share content and conversations that inspire, support, and align with alcohol-free socializing, such as hobbies, wellness, or community events.

3. Acceptable Behavior

We encourage behaviors that strengthen our community, including:

• Sharing authentic, positive content in profiles, messages, photos, videos, group chats, and event postings.
• Engaging respectfully in group chats and event discussions, even when opinions differ.
• Posting or attending alcohol-free events that promote sober socializing (e.g., coffee meetups, outdoor activities, or workshops).
• Reporting violations promptly to help maintain a safe environment.

4. Prohibited Behavior

The following behaviors are strictly prohibited:

• Harassment and Bullying: Targeted abuse, including unwanted messages, threats, intimidation, or derogatory remarks based on protected characteristics (e.g., race, gender, religion).
• Hate Speech: Content or actions promoting discrimination, hostility, or violence against individuals or groups based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, age, nationality, or other protected traits.
• Threats or Violence: Advocating, glorifying, or threatening physical harm, self-harm, terrorism, or illegal activities.
• Sexual Misconduct: Sharing or soliciting explicit content, engaging in predatory behavior, or attempting to exploit minors. While Drybaby is not a dating platform, respectful personal connections are permitted; exploitation is not.
• Impersonation: Pretending to be another person or entity, creating fake profiles, or misrepresenting your identity or intentions.

• Platform Disruption: Using bots, scripts, or excessive posting to interfere with the Platform’s functionality or user experience.

5. Content Guidelines

All content posted, shared, or uploaded (e.g., profiles, photos, messages, group chats, event listings) must comply with these guidelines.

a. Acceptable Content

• Profiles: Photos and bios that authentically represent you, such as non-explicit images of yourself, hobbies, or alcohol-free activities.

• Users attending events do so at their own risk; verify event legitimacy before participating.
• Organizers must respond promptly to user inquiries and ensure events comply with local laws.

6. User Safety

Safety is a priority, especially for in-person events facilitated through the Platform:

• Exercise Caution: Verify event details with organizers and take precautions (e.g., share plans with a trusted contact, meet in public spaces).
• Respect Boundaries: Honor others’ comfort levels in online interactions and event invitations. Do not pressure anyone to meet in person.
• Report Unsafe Situations: If you feel unsafe online or at an event, use the in-app reporting tool or contact local authorities immediately.
• No Background Checks: Drybaby does not perform background checks on users or event organizers; exercise due diligence when connecting.
• Alcohol-Free Enforcement: Report any event or user promoting alcohol or substances to team[p[@drybaby.co for immediate review.

We may share information about serious violations with law enforcement or safety organizations when required by law or to protect users.
