Trust & Safety

Trust and Safety at Mental Health Singles

How we keep Mental Health Singles a safe place to date: AI screening, human moderation, identity verification, a control panel that puts you in charge of who can reach you, and gentle signposting if anyone needs more than a dating site can give.

Identity & verification

ID verification
