How we behave

Community Guidelines.

DEX is for adult men who want to meet other adult men. Be honest, be safe, be respectful. Anything that breaks UK law or these rules gets you removed.

Be 18 or over

You must be 18+ to use Dex. We verify age and may re-verify at any time.

Anyone using the app under 18, or attempting to contact a minor, is reported to UK law enforcement and permanently banned.

Be the person in your photos

No catfishing. No stolen images. Your main photo must be a recent, recognisable photo of you.

Consent is everything

Don't send unsolicited intimate images.

Don't share, screenshot or distribute anyone else's intimate images. Sharing intimate images without consent is a criminal offence in the UK under the Online Safety Act 2023.

What's not allowed

  • Sexual content involving anyone under 18 — instant ban, reported to IWF and NCA.
  • Threats, harassment, stalking, doxxing, blackmail.
  • Hate speech (race, religion, disability, gender identity, immigration status).
  • Selling sex, drugs, weapons, or any illegal goods or services.
  • Scams, romance fraud, payment requests, crypto pitches.
  • Promoting self-harm or suicide.
  • Spam, bots, mass-messaging, off-platform redirection.

Public photos vs private albums

Your public profile photos must not contain nudity or explicit sexual content. They're seen by everyone on the grid.

You may share nudity in your private album with people you've explicitly chosen to share with, and in 1:1 direct messages with consenting adults. All such content is still subject to UK law.

Reporting and appeals

Tap Report on any profile, message, or spot. We triage:

  • CSAM, intimate-image abuse, imminent harm: reviewed within 24 hours.
  • Other illegal content: within 72 hours.
  • Guideline breaches: within 7 days.

If we suspend or remove you and you believe it was wrong, email appeals@meetdex.net. We'll respond within 14 days.
