By using Pheromone you agree to these terms. We've tried to keep them short and human. If something doesn't sit right, email us and we'll talk.
You must be 18+
Pheromone is a dating app for adults. Don't use it if you're under 18, and don't pretend to be older than you are.
One account per person
One real human, one profile. Don't impersonate anyone else, don't use someone else's photos, and don't run multiple accounts.
Be a person, not a bot
Pheromone exists for people meeting people. Don't use it for marketing, recruiting, scams, paid promotions, or anything that uses match conversations as a business channel. We'll catch you, and we'll ban you.
Treat people well
We have zero tolerance for:
- Harassment, threats, hate speech, or targeted abuse
- Sharing or requesting non-consensual intimate images
- Predatory behaviour towards minors
- Anything illegal under UK or EU law
Conduct that crosses these lines will get your account terminated without warning. Where appropriate, we'll cooperate with law enforcement.
Your content
You keep ownership of everything you put on Pheromone — photos, prompts, messages. By posting it, you grant us a non-exclusive licence to display it on the platform so other users can see it. That licence ends the moment you delete the content.
Our content
The Pheromone name, logo, design, and codebase are ours (or licensed to us). Don't copy them or pretend your product is Pheromone.
Moderation
We use AI to screen photos and messages for abuse. It catches a lot but not everything. Use the Report button if you see something the system missed — humans look at every report.
No guarantees
Pheromone is provided "as is". We don't guarantee that you'll match with anyone, that the service will always be available, or that another user is exactly who they claim to be. Always meet in public, tell a friend where you're going.
Limitation of liability
To the extent allowed by law, we're not liable for indirect or consequential losses caused by your use of Pheromone. Our total liability for any claim is capped at the amount you've paid us in the last 12 months — for free users, that's zero.
Ending the relationship
You can delete your account any time from Settings. We can suspend or terminate your account if you break these terms.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Disputes go to the courts of London, UK.
Changes
If we change anything material, we'll let you know in-app at least 14 days before it takes effect.
