Terms of service
Last updated September 3, 2026
The short version: be 18 or older, don't use WeCrossed to hurt or deceive people, and understand that we've built the app so we can't read your profile or messages, which shapes what we can and can't do about content. The rest of this page is the full version.
1. Agreement and eligibility
By using WeCrossed, you agree to these terms and to our privacy policy. If you don't agree, don't use the app.
You must be at least 18 years old to use WeCrossed. By creating a profile, you confirm you meet that requirement. WeCrossed is only available where it's legal for you to use it.
2. Your profile and acceptable use
Your profile is tied to keys generated and held on your own device, not to a username and password we manage. Keeping your device secure is what keeps your profile secure.
You agree not to use WeCrossed to:
- Harass, threaten, or deceive other users, including catfishing or impersonation.
- Post or share content you don't have the right to share.
- Advertise, solicit, or run automated/bot profiles.
- Interfere with or reverse-engineer the crossing, matching, or matching-relay protocol, or attempt to identify other users outside the app's own reveal mechanics.
- Use the app in a way that violates the law where you are.
Availability and changes
WeCrossed is currently in beta. We don't guarantee uptime, and features can be added, changed, or removed as the protocol evolves. Availability may vary by platform, region, and OS version.
3. Your content
Ownership and permission
You own your profile, photos, and messages. Because everything leaves your device already encrypted, we hold ciphertext we can't read, which means we don't have a meaningful way to use your content for anything beyond relaying it to the intended recipient, such as AI training, advertising, or resale. We'd need the ability to read it first, and by design, we don't have that.
Content safety
Nudity screening on your own photos happens entirely on your device, using a local image classifier before a photo is ever uploaded. Nothing is sent to us or to any third party to make that check.
Separately, every profile photo is checked against known child sexual abuse material (CSAM) before it's stored. Your device computes a PhotoDNA hash of the photo, not the photo itself, using technology from our subprocessor Microsoft, and sends only that hash to our relay for matching against Microsoft's PhotoDNA database. A profile with a matching hash is rejected outright. See our child safety standards and privacy policy for more.
Deletion and exports
You can delete your profile and data at any time. See deleting your account for exactly what that removes and what briefly persists. There's no separate export tool, because your device already holds your data in a usable form; we never hold a readable copy to export on your behalf.
Copyright
If you believe your copyrighted work has been used on WeCrossed without permission, email contact@wecrossed.app. Because profile content is end-to-end encrypted, we can't view or selectively remove a single photo or message the way an ordinary platform could. The only action we're able to take is at the profile level, up to and including removing it entirely.
4. Paid features
WeCrossed is currently free to use, with no paid features. If that changes, we'll update these terms first and be clear about what's paid and what isn't.
5. Privacy and third parties
Our privacy policy controls how we handle data, and forms part of these terms. Profile bundles and messages are end-to-end encrypted today, not planned for later. Push notifications, when enabled, are delivered through Apple's or Google's own notification services, and every profile photo's hash is checked against known CSAM through Microsoft's PhotoDNA service, as described in our privacy policy.
6. Safety, blocking, and enforcement
Blocking and reporting
You can block anyone from your matches or candidates list. Blocking is immediate, silent, and entirely on your device: the other person is never notified. You can unblock someone at any time from Settings, which lets you match or cross paths with them again.
You can also report anyone from the same place, which blocks them and sends a report to our team, pre-filled with the reason you choose and, unlike ordinary profile content, the means to decrypt that specific profile. This is the one deliberate exception to what we say in your content above. We still can't read anything you haven't reported.
Enforcement by us
Because we can't read profile or message content, we can't moderate it. What we can do is act on abuse patterns visible at the infrastructure level, like excessive requests or attempts to abuse the matching protocol, up to rate-limiting or banning the profile or device responsible.
Deleting your profile
You can delete your own profile and data at any time. See deleting your account.
7. Disclaimers and liability
WeCrossed is provided "as is," without warranties of any kind, to the extent the law allows. We're not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the app, including anything arising from interactions with other users we have no visibility into. Nothing here limits liability that can't legally be limited, such as liability for fraud or for death or personal injury caused by our negligence.
8. Disputes and governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of Belgium. If you're a consumer, mandatory consumer-protection laws of your own country of residence still apply regardless of this clause, and EU consumers can also bring a claim in the courts of their own country. We'd rather resolve a problem directly, so try contact@wecrossed.app first.
9. Changes, communications, and sanctions
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms as the app changes. For changes that meaningfully reduce your rights, we'll give you notice in the app before they take effect. Continuing to use WeCrossed after that means you accept the updated terms.
App communications
We don't collect an email address, so we can't and don't send you email. Operational messages, like a notification about a match, arrive as in-app or push notifications instead, on the same terms described in our privacy policy.
Export controls and sanctions
You're responsible for complying with the export control and sanctions laws that apply to you. We may restrict access to WeCrossed where required to comply with these laws.
10. EU Digital Services Act and UK Online Safety Act
We intend to meet our obligations under the EU Digital Services Act and the UK Online Safety Act as they apply to a service our size. Because content is end-to-end encrypted, our ability to act on illegal content is necessarily limited to what's described in section 3 and section 6 above, rather than content review. The one proactive exception is CSAM: every profile photo is screened against Microsoft's PhotoDNA database of known CSAM before it's stored, as described in section 3 and in our child safety standards. If you believe something on WeCrossed is illegal, contact us at contact@wecrossed.app.
11. General terms
- If any part of these terms turns out to be unenforceable, the rest still stands, and the unenforceable part is read to achieve its intent as closely as the law allows.
- These terms, along with our privacy policy, are the entire agreement between you and us about WeCrossed.
- You can't transfer your rights under these terms to anyone else.
- We're not responsible for delays or failures caused by circumstances outside our reasonable control.
- The English version of these terms is the controlling version.
