We have an excellent safety record and are proud of our warm and loving community. We do not take any prisoners when it comes to rude, insulting, sexist or racist behaviour.
We do not recommend real life meetings but we know some of you have, some will want to and some do. Therefore, to keep you a little safer, below we have listed some advice relating to your on and offline activities in the hope it will be useful in keeping your encounters a little safer and more enjoyable.
To read about online and offline safety, please use the buttons directly below and please remember, your safety is ultimately in your hands. Always exercise caution and common sense.
There Are No Excuses For Bad Behaviour
We always encourage our users to report anyone violating our policies and this includes offline. However, please understand that just like in the real world, we can only act on sufficient evidence. We therefore ask for any messages and posts that can be used as evidence by our investigators are kept for review. Items that are most useful are but not limited to messages and URL of pages/content/images.
On OstoDate:
Use the report link or contact form to report it, giving as much detail as possible and saving any evidence.
Offline:
Contact your local Law Enforcement Agency, then contact us.

Harm Reduction
As a responsible platform for the online Ostomate community, caring for our members and their well-being is of paramount importance to us. We except the same from our members. Recognising certain behaviours or traits by unqualified people is not easy and can often be a hindrance and for this reason we have created this resource to help members seek self help for themselves or others when things in life can get a little too much at times.
