Community Guidelines

Building a safe, respectful, and supportive community for everyone

Last Updated: August 05, 2026

HiLink is a platform built on trust, respect, and genuine human connection. These guidelines apply to all users and hosts. Violating them may result in warnings, temporary suspension, or permanent removal from the platform.

1 Treat Everyone with Respect

HiLink is a place where people seek guidance, support, and meaningful conversations. Every interaction should be kind, empathetic, and professional.

  • Communicate politely and constructively at all times.
  • Respect differing viewpoints, backgrounds, and experiences.
  • Do not belittle, mock, or demean hosts or other users.

2 Prohibited Content & Behavior

The following are strictly prohibited on HiLink:

Harassment, bullying, threats, or intimidation of any kind.
Sexual harassment, unsolicited explicit content, or nudity.
Hate speech targeting race, religion, gender, nationality, sexual orientation, or disability.
Scamming, fraud, or any attempt to solicit money outside the platform.
Sharing or requesting personal contact information (phone numbers, social media, addresses).
Spamming, unsolicited advertising, or self-promotion.
Impersonating another user, host, or HiLink staff.
Any activity that violates applicable Indian law or regulations.

3 Protect Privacy

Respecting privacy is fundamental to trust on HiLink.

  • Screen recording, screenshots, and call recording are strictly prohibited. HiLink's platform does not record calls and users must not use third-party tools to do so.
  • Do not share another user's or host's personal information publicly.
  • Keep conversations confidential and do not distribute shared content outside the platform.
  • Violations of the recording and screenshot policy — including sharing captured content — result in permanent account suspension with no appeal.

4 Be Authentic

Trust is built on honesty. All users and hosts must represent themselves truthfully.

  • Use your real identity. Do not create fake profiles or impersonate others.
  • Hosts must not misrepresent their qualifications, expertise, or credentials.
  • Do not use bots, scripts, or automated systems to interact on the platform.

5 Safe & Appropriate Interactions

HiLink connects users with friends for meaningful conversations. Keep all interactions appropriate and within platform boundaries.

  • All communication must occur within the HiLink platform only.
  • Do not attempt to move conversations to external platforms or messaging apps.
  • Report any host or user who attempts to conduct transactions outside the platform.

6 Reporting Violations

If you encounter content or behaviour that violates these guidelines, please report it immediately. Your reports help us maintain a safe community.

How to report:

We investigate all reports and take action where warranted. False or malicious reports are also a violation of these guidelines.

7 Fast Action Against Harmful Content

HiLink takes a zero-tolerance stance on harmful content and behaviour. The following categories are acted upon with the highest urgency:

🔞

Nudity & Explicit Content

Any sexually explicit material shared during calls or in profiles is immediately removed and the account suspended.

👶

Minor Safety

Any exploitation, solicitation, or endangerment of minors results in permanent ban and mandatory reporting to law enforcement.

🚨

Abuse & Harassment

Verbal abuse, intimidation, threats, or targeted harassment — the offending user is warned, suspended, or permanently banned based on severity.

💸

Scams & Fraud

Any attempt to deceive users for money, personal details, or other gain is permanently banned and may be reported to authorities.

Response commitment: Verified reports of the above categories are reviewed within 24 hours. Emergency situations involving minor safety are escalated immediately. See our monthly transparency reports for enforcement statistics.

Scam & Fraud Warning

  • Never share OTPs, bank account details, UPI IDs, or card numbers with any user on HiLink.
  • • HiLink will never ask for your financial information through the app or calls.
  • Do not make payments outside the app. Any request to pay via UPI, bank transfer, or external links is a scam.
  • • If someone asks for money, personal details, or tries to move conversation off-platform — report them immediately using the in-app report button.

HiLink reserves the right to take appropriate action for violations of these guidelines, including:

  • Issuing a warning to the offending user or host.
  • Temporary suspension of account access.
  • Permanent ban from the platform.
  • Reporting to law enforcement where applicable.
