Terms, Safety & Community Guidelines

Let’s be honest: nobody loves fine print. We don’t either.

But in the world we live in, some rules and guardrails are necessary. We’ve done our best to keep this clear, plain-spoken, and readable by actual humans.

If you have questions at any point, email us at hello@neighborquad.com. We mean that.

The Short Version

NeighborQuad exists to help real people form real, local connections - safely, respectfully, and without becoming the kind of platform everyone complains about.

By using NeighborQuad, you agree to a few basic expectations that keep the experience positive and trustworthy for everyone involved.

Who NeighborQuad Is For

NeighborQuad is for adults 18 and older

You must provide accurate information about who you are and where you live

One person = one account. No burner accounts. No impersonation. No exceptions.

Verification & Privacy

We take safety and privacy seriously—but let’s be clear about what that means (and what it doesn’t).

  • We review identification documents and confirm that submitted information appears consistent before publishing profiles

  • This process helps reduce risk, but it is not a guarantee of anyone’s identity, character, intentions, or exact location

  • Profiles are intentionally limited and remain anonymous until two people mutually connect

  • We collect only what’s necessary to operate NeighborQuad and improve the experience

  • We do not sell personal data. Ever. That’s a hard line.

Verification is a safety layer, not a promise that everyone is perfect or trustworthy. Use good judgment. Always.

Community Standards (a.k.a. Don’t Be Weird)

By using NeighborQuad, you agree to:

  • Treat others with respect

  • Communicate honestly and clearly

  • Keep interactions appropriate, non-harassing, and non-threatening

  • Respect boundaries - online and offline

You agree not to:

  • Harass, stalk, threaten, or intimidate others

  • Use NeighborQuad for scams, solicitation, or commercial purposes

  • Share another person’s personal information without permission

  • Use the platform for illegal activity of any kind

If these standards are violated, we reserve the right to remove your account. No drama. No debates.

Meeting in Real Life

NeighborQuad helps make introductions. What happens next is up to you.

• Always meet in public places first

• Keep initial meetups simple and casual - think coffee or a walk

• Trust your instincts - if something feels off, don’t proceed

You are solely responsible for your interactions and any meetings that occur through NeighborQuad.

Liability & Responsibility Disclaimer

By registering for or using NeighborQuad, you acknowledge and agree to the following:

NeighborQuad cannot and does not guarantee the behavior, identity, intentions, or actions of any user. You are responsible for your own decisions, communications, and interactions - both online and in person.

NeighborQuad is not liable for any harm, loss, injury, or damage (physical, emotional, financial, or otherwise) that may result from using the platform or interacting with other users.

While we review identification documents and verify that information appears consistent, we do not guarantee any user’s identity, character, location, or conduct.

If you encounter suspicious activity or have safety concerns, contact us immediately at hello@neighborquad.com.

Payments, Fees & Access

  • Payments are refundable (minus processing fees) upon request, no hassle. Just email hello@neighborquad.com.

  • Pricing and features may evolve over time, and we’ll be transparent when they do.

Platform Changes & Availability

NeighborQuad is a living product. Features may be added, changed, or removed as we learn what works. We aim for reliability but don’t guarantee uninterrupted service.

Account Suspension or Removal

We may suspend or terminate accounts if:

  • These terms are violated

  • Information provided is false or misleading

  • Behavior puts other users or the platform at risk

You may also update or delete your account at any time by emailing hello@neighborquad.com.

Legal Stuff (Keeping It Real)

  • NeighborQuad is provided “as is”

  • We are not liable for damages resulting from misuse of the platform or user interactions

  • These terms are governed by U.S. law and the laws of the State of Indiana

Questions, Concerns, or Feedback

We’re humans—not a faceless corporation.

If something feels unclear or doesn’t sit right, reach out: hello@neighborquad.com.

These policies will evolve as NeighborQuad grows. When they do, we’ll notify users. Continued use of NeighborQuad means you agree to the most current version—whether or not you’ve read every word.

(But hey… we appreciate it if you did.)
