Answers to the questions people ask before they join.

The short version: your friends build the profile, Curious replaces swiping, and Greenflag stays local by design.

N°01 - THE BASICS

Greenflag is simple. It is also a little different.

Profiles and friends

What is Greenflag?

Greenflag is a city-locked dating app where your profile is built by your friends, not written like a personal ad by you. You provide the raw material, and the people who know you turn it into a profile that feels more like a real introduction than a sales pitch.

Can I write my own dating profile?

No. You provide raw inputs like photos and basic facts, but your friends create the pitch and leave vouches. That keeps the strongest signal in someone else's voice, which is the whole point: a profile should reveal how people experience you, not just how you market yourself.

What is a vouch?

A vouch is a short statement from someone who knows you and is willing to put their name behind you. It gives readers context that a self-written bio cannot: what you are like when nobody is performing, how you treat people, and why someone close to you thinks you are worth meeting.

Can family count?

Yes. Friends, family, and loved ones can contribute as long as the relationship is shown honestly. A sister, roommate, cousin, teammate, or longtime friend can all be useful context as long as readers know who is speaking.

What if a vouch is written in another language?

That is okay. Greenflag is built for real friend groups and families, including people across countries and languages. A vouch is welcome in any language. It appears in the language it was written, alongside who wrote it and their relationship to you.

Can my profile go live without friends?

No. The profile needs friend participation before it can go live. That rule is the product: without friends, Greenflag would collapse back into a regular self-authored dating profile, just with more steps.

Matching

Do I swipe?

No. Browsing is just browsing. There is no public pass, reject, or scoreboard attached to moving through profiles. If you open a full profile and want to signal interest, you can get Curious.

What is Curious?

Curious is Greenflag's low-pressure interest mechanic. You can be curious about a limited set of people at a time, which keeps interest intentional instead of turning into endless right-swiping. The goal is a smaller set that actually means something.

Can people see that I am Curious about them?

No. Curious is blind unless both people are currently curious about each other. We do not show admirer lists or sell reveals, because that would turn interest into pressure instead of signal.

When does messaging unlock?

Messaging unlocks when both people are curious about each other at the same time. The match language is deliberately simple: you are both curious. It is meant to feel more like permission to start a real conversation than a dramatic verdict.

Can I date across cities?

Discovery is local to the same metro. Greenflag is built for nearby connections, not long-distance browsing, because the product works best when a match can become an actual plan without turning into a travel project.

Safety, privacy, and money

Do you verify users?

Greenflag uses phone verification and photo verification as part of the trust model. Verification does not replace judgment, but it raises the floor: people should not be able to casually hide behind fake accounts while asking strangers to trust them.

Can I report someone?

Yes. Use the in-app report flow or email safety@trygreenflag.com. Reports can cover harassment, threats, impersonation, scams, coercion, sexual pressure, hate, or anything else that makes Greenflag feel unsafe.

Do you sell user data?

No. Selling user data would break the trust promise Greenflag is built on. Greenflag is designed to make dating feel more accountable and human, not to turn private relationship context into an advertising product.

How do I delete my account?

In the app, open Settings and choose Delete account. Deletion is immediate and irreversible: your profile, matches, and messages are removed and cannot be recovered. If you cannot access the app, email privacy@trygreenflag.com from the contact registered to your account and we will delete it for you.

Can people pay to rank higher?

No. Greenflag does not sell visibility or pay-to-boost ranking. Paying to appear more desirable would weaken the whole idea: the strongest signal should come from friends, behavior, and mutual curiosity, not from whoever pays for placement.

How does pricing work?

Greenflag is free to start. We are launching without a paywall, so there is nothing to pay to sign up, build a profile, browse, or match. People who join now are founding members and keep free access as Greenflag grows.
