Safety through verification
Troobondr is the Indian dating app that actually does the hard part: proving people are who they say they are. Verification is not an optional badge here — it is the architecture of the entire product.
1. Mandatory Government-ID Verification for Men
Every man on Troobondr completes mandatory government-ID verification (via DigiLocker) and a live selfie liveness check before he can send his first message.
- Before messaging — no ID, no first message. Not negotiable.
- Live selfie + Liveness Check — we confirm the ID belongs to the person holding the phone.
- DigiLocker integration — Aadhaar and other government-issued documents verified securely.
- Manual review — human quality checks sit on top of automated verification.
Why this matters
- Catfish accounts and fake profiles shut out.
- Accountability rises — bad behaviour carries real consequences for a verifiable identity.
- A baseline of authenticity that most platforms do not offer.
2. Live Selfie & Continuous Photo Verification
- Selfie liveness checks at signup and periodically after.
- Photo consistency checks — your visible profile pictures are checked to match the verified selfie.
- Continuous monitoring, not just one-time verification.
3. Trust Score
Your Trust Score is a dynamic, transparent number that reflects:
- Verification status (ID + selfie)
- Profile completeness
- Positive interactions and community feedback
- History of clean behaviour
- Behaviour pattern monitoring
Higher Trust Score → higher visibility, more matches, more feature unlocks.
Negative signals → reduced visibility and, at serious levels, suspension or ban.
The score is visible to you, and verified peers can see a trustworthy signal when choosing to engage.
4. Real-World Safety Tools
Emergency / Panic Button
One tap shares your live GPS location with a trusted contact and switches the app to a neutral screen. A flagship feature for real-world emergencies.
Screenshot Alerts
The moment someone screenshots your profile photos or chat, you receive an immediate alert. Protect your photos and conversations.
Blur Face Until Mutual Match
Keep your face private until both people show mutual interest. Control who sees you — and when.
5. Takedown of Non-Consensual Imagery Within 24 Hours
In line with Indian law (IT Rules, 2021), we remove non-consensual intimate imagery within 24 hours of a valid report, permanently ban the offender, and cooperate with law enforcement.
6. Human + AI Safety Review
- Automated detection flags suspicious behaviour patterns.
- A trained Trust & Safety team reviews reports and high-risk cases — humans always make the final call for bans.
- Round-the-clock monitoring with fast action on genuine threats.
7. Zero Tolerance Policy
Verification makes consequences real. Harassment, abuse, fraud and non-consensual content meet permanent bans without warning. No threats will ever be tolerated.
Your safety is the product.
