Guidelines for a safe and secure experience. hr
Introduction hr
Hubbline.com is strictly for matrimonial purposes only and not a dating website. You should always be cautious when interacting with someone you don't know. Use your best judgment and put your safety first, whether you are exchanging initial messages or meeting in person. While you can't control the actions of others, there are things you can do to help you stay safe during your Hubbline experience.
Prepare Before You Start
Set up an email account just for online matrimony service. This makes it easy to quarantine any unwanted mail and keep your personal email secure.
Never include your personal contact information in your profile, especially telephone numbers, email, home address, or your date of birth.
Our site allows you to remain anonymous to other users until you feel ready to provide contact information.
Only provide your contact information to another user when your instincts tell you this is someone you can trust.
Keep your passwords confidential and make sure they are not easy to guess. Choose a unique password for the online matrimony service.
Never send money, especially over wire transfer, even if the person claims to be in an emergency. Never share information that could be used to access your financial accounts. If another user asks you for money, report it to us immediately.
Eliminate and Avoid Problems
We do not validate the identity of our members or the information that they submit on their profiles, although we take steps to remove any suspected members.
It is not possible to be 100% sure that all members will be honest and truthful in their dealings with other members. So be alert and use common sense when communicating with other members.
Ask a lot of questions when communicating, be alert for inconsistencies, and make notes if you are suspicious of anything.
If you are suspicious of any Hubbline member or a member's actions cross the line, we want to know about it. Block and report anyone that violates our terms using the online support request form.
Before You Meet
Find out as much as possible about the person you are communicating with before you meet them in person. Communicate extensively using email, instant messaging, or chat prior to calling the other person. Do not disclose your phone number or personal contact information until you feel comfortable to do so.
Ask to see photos of the person in a variety of situations at different times in their life and try to understand more about that person.
Proceed one step at a time and at your own pace. Take as much time as is possible getting to know the person.
If a person is located in a foreign country, be aware of cultural differences and take the time to learn the culture and understand the other person's expectations.
Once you feel comfortable and decide to move further, we strongly encourage you to engage both sides' parents or guardians for added safety.
When you do decide to meet face to face, pick a public place and tell a friend or family member where you're going.
Before You Become Engaged
Before you get engaged, take the time to consider what could go wrong and know your rights.
Getting married is one of the most important decisions in your life and not something that should be rushed.
Get to know your partner's friends and family and always keep your family informed of your life-changing decision.
We strongly encourage you to engage both sides' family to have a healthy relationship.
Make sure that you know as much as possible about your partner before getting engaged.
If you are getting engaged to someone from another country, you should take additional steps to familiarize yourself with your rights in that country.
