Safety Center

Meet up on your terms.

NVight helps you find real people to do real things with. This page explains how we designed for your safety, what you control, and how to get help fast. Maintained by the NVight team.

Know the risks of sharing location

Live location is powerful - and personal. Before you turn it on, understand what you're agreeing to:

  • Anyone in that plan can see roughly where you are for as long as the window is active.
  • A recipient could screenshot or write down your location. Only share with people you're actually meeting.
  • Location can hint at your home, work, or routine. Prefer public meetup spots and only turn it on around the meetup time.
  • If something feels off, stop sharing first, then leave the plan. You don't owe anyone an explanation.

You control every share

  • Off by default. Location sharing is never automatic. You choose to turn it on, per plan.
  • Only inside a plan. Sharing is scoped to the specific meetup - matching, messaging, and browsing never see your location.
  • Only plan members can see it. Not the wider community, not people who "liked" the same activity, not the public.
  • One-tap stop. A persistent banner appears while you're sharing, with a Stop Sharing button that ends the window immediately.

Time-limited by design

  • Every share has an end time you pick - 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, or 8 hours.
  • When the window ends, sharing turns off automatically. There is no "always on" option.
  • A live countdown in the banner shows exactly how much time is left.
  • Closing the app, force-quitting, or losing signal doesn't extend the window.

Block & report - your kill switch

  • Block anyone at any time. Blocked people can't message you, see your profile, or share a plan with you going forward.
  • Report anyone for harassment, impersonation, unsafe behavior, or anything that violates the community rules. Reports go to the NVight team for review.
  • Blocking or reporting a plan member ends messaging and cuts off further contact - treat it as the fastest way to disengage.
  • If you're in immediate danger, contact local emergency services first. In the U.S., call or text 911.

What we protect on our side

  • Your contact info (phone, email, social handles) is hidden from other people until you both agree to meet up.
  • Location windows are stored per plan and are only readable by other approved members of that plan.
  • Auth, database access, and location records are protected by row-level rules so people can only see what they should.
  • We do not sell your location or profile data, and we don't use it for advertising.

Smart meetup habits

  • Meet in public for the first time - coffee, a class, a busy bar, a park during daylight.
  • Tell a friend where you're going and when you expect to be back.
  • Handle your own transportation both ways. Don't get into someone else's car for a first meetup.
  • Trust your gut. If a chat feels off, don't show up. If the meetup feels off, leave.
  • NVight isn't a dating app. If someone starts pushing it that way and you're not into it, block and report.

Get help

  • In app: use Block and Report from any profile or chat.
  • Email: safety@nvight.com for urgent trust & safety issues.
  • Emergency: dial your local emergency number first. NVight staff can't respond faster than local responders.

This page is maintained by the NVight team and describes controls currently available in the app. It isn't a certification and it doesn't replace your own judgment about who to meet. Features and protections may change as the app evolves.
