keep this at the table

Your Safety is Our Priority

Meeting strangers should feel ordinary, not brave. These are the rules the whole club runs on — what we enforce, what we ask of you, and exactly what happens if a night goes wrong.

  • Public venues only
  • Verified 18+ members
  • Tables of 4–6
  • Every report reviewed

Table safety card

Grooviq · 18+

Always true

Enforced by Grooviq, on every publicly listed event. Not advice — rules.

Public Venues for Open Events

Grooviq-hosted nights and community Open Tables always meet at public venues — enforced when every event is created. Private tables are invite-only, unlisted, and share their location only with invited guests.

Verified Members

Every member joins with an account and provides a phone number at signup. Grooviq is 18+ with age verification enforced.

Group Safety

Our small group format (4-6 people) creates natural safety through numbers while maintaining intimacy for meaningful connections.

Community Monitoring

Clear community guidelines, AI-assisted moderation, and in-app reporting and blocking keep interactions respectful. Violating our guidelines means removal from the platform.

Before you go

  • Review the venue and activity details
  • Let a friend know where you're going
  • Arrive on time and stay with the group

While you're there

  • Stay in public areas
  • Don't share personal information too quickly
  • Trust your instincts about people and situations

At the table

Break these and you're removed from the platform.

Be Respectful

Treat all members with kindness, respect, and consideration. We have zero tolerance for harassment, discrimination, or inappropriate behavior.

Be Genuine

Show up as yourself. Pretending to be someone you're not — or misrepresenting who is coming — breaks the trust the table runs on, and will result in account suspension.

Keep it Friendly

Grooviq is for friendship only. Any romantic or sexual advances are inappropriate and will result in immediate removal from the platform.

Show Up

If you commit to attending a meetup, please honor that commitment. Frequent no-shows affect the entire group experience.

If something's wrong

You can always leave

No notice, no excuse, no penalty. Trust your instincts and go — then tell us, and we'll handle the rest.

  • Trust your instincts and leave if uncomfortable
  • Call emergency services (911) if needed
  • Contact us at safety@grooviq.com
  • Never feel obligated to stay in any situation

Report Inappropriate Behavior

If you experience or witness inappropriate behavior, please report it immediately:

safety@grooviq.com

Every report is reviewed · All reports are confidential

You never owe anyone an explanation for leaving.
