Terms of Service

Effective November 10, 2026 · Last updated November 10, 2026

Draft, pending legal review. This document is a working draft prepared for MeantMee's launch and has not yet been approved by counsel. It is not final and may change.

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and Circuvent Technologies ("Circuvent," "MeantMee," "we," "us") governing your use of the MeantMee apps, websites and related services (the "Service"). Please read Section 16 carefully: it contains an arbitration agreement and class-action waiver that affect how disputes are resolved.

1. Acceptance of these Terms

By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, our Community Guidelines, and, if you buy a subscription, our Subscription Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

We may update these Terms. If a change is material, we will notify you in the app or by email at least 30 days before it takes effect, unless the change is required by law or addresses a safety issue. Continuing to use the Service after the effective date means you accept the updated Terms.

2. Eligibility

You may use MeantMee only if all of the following are true:

  • You are at least 18 years old.
  • You can form a binding contract with Circuvent and are not barred from using the Service under the laws of the United States or any applicable jurisdiction.
  • You have not been convicted of, or pleaded no contest to, a felony or indictable offense (or crime of similar severity), a sex crime, or any crime involving violence, and you are not required to register as a sex offender with any government entity.
  • You have not previously been removed from the Service by us, unless we have given you written permission to return.

We ask for your date of birth during sign-up and refuse anyone under 18. If we learn that a user is under 18, we will terminate the account.

3. Your account

You sign in with a one-time code sent to your email or phone, or with Sign in with Apple or Google. You are responsible for keeping access to those methods secure and for all activity on your account. Tell us right away at support@meantmee.com if you believe your account has been compromised.

You may have only one account. You may not create an account on behalf of someone else, use another person's identity, or transfer your account.

4. Nearby and location features

Nearby lets you choose to become visible to other members within a radius you select (currently 100–200 meters, within bounds we set). While Nearby is on, your device sends its location to our servers, and other eligible members may see your profile and an approximate distance band. We never show your precise location to other members.

Nearby is off by default and expires automatically. You agree not to use Nearby or any other feature to track, follow, stalk, or locate any person, or to attempt to determine another member's precise location through repeated queries, multiple accounts, spoofed locations, or any other technique. Doing so is a serious violation of these Terms and may be reported to law enforcement.

5. Safety; interactions with other members

You are solely responsible for your interactions with other members. MeantMee does not conduct criminal background checks or identity verification on its members, and does not inquire into the backgrounds of members. Photo verification only indicates that a live selfie matched the profile photos at the time of verification. See our Dating Safety Disclosures and Safety Center.

Use caution when communicating with or meeting anyone you don't know. Never send money or financial information to another member. If you are in danger, call 911.

6. Rules of conduct

You agree to follow our Community Guidelines. Without limitation, you will not:

  • harass, threaten, bully, stalk, intimidate, defame, or abuse anyone;
  • post or send nudity, sexually explicit content, or any intimate image of another person without their consent, or any content that sexualizes minors;
  • post hate speech or content that promotes violence or discrimination based on race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, disability, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, or other protected characteristic;
  • misrepresent your identity, age, or affiliation, or use photos that are not of you;
  • solicit money, promote commercial products, engage in prostitution or trafficking, or run scams;
  • use the Service for any unlawful purpose;
  • scrape, crawl, reverse engineer, or interfere with the Service, circumvent rate limits or technical restrictions, or use bots or automated means;
  • use another member's information for any purpose other than getting to know them on MeantMee.

7. Your content and license to us

You own the content you post, including photos, prompt answers and messages ("Your Content"). You grant Circuvent a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sub-licensable license to host, store, use, copy, display, reproduce, adapt (for example, resize or crop), and distribute Your Content solely to operate, develop, provide, improve and promote the Service. This license ends when Your Content is deleted from our systems, except where retention is required by law or for safety and enforcement.

You represent that you have all rights needed to grant this license and that Your Content does not violate any law or anyone's rights. We may review, moderate, refuse or remove any content at our discretion, including through automated tools and human review.

8. Moderation and enforcement

We use automated systems and human reviewers to enforce these Terms. Depending on severity, we may warn you, remove content, temporarily suspend your account (1, 3, 7 or 30 days), or permanently ban you, and we may block associated devices, email addresses and phone numbers. We may act without notice where safety requires.

If you believe we made a mistake, reply to the enforcement notice or contact appeals@meantmee.com within 30 days.

10. Our intellectual property

The Service, including the MeantMee name, logo, software, design and content we provide, is owned by Circuvent and its licensors and protected by intellectual property laws. We grant you a personal, worldwide, royalty-free, non-assignable, non-exclusive, revocable license to use the Service as permitted by these Terms.

12. Termination

You can delete your account at any time in Settings. We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms or if we stop offering the Service. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including 7, 10, 13–17) will survive.

13. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CIRCUVENT DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE OR ERROR-FREE, THAT LOCATION FEATURES WILL BE ACCURATE, OR THAT YOU WILL FIND A MATCH. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONDUCT OF ANY MEMBER ON OR OFF THE SERVICE.

14. Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL CIRCUVENT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS OR DATA, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR ANY MEMBER'S CONDUCT. OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF $100 OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THESE LIMITATIONS, SO THEY MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

15. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Circuvent and its affiliates, officers, employees and agents from any claims, losses and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of the Service, Your Content, your interactions with other members, or your violation of these Terms, to the extent permitted by law.

16. Dispute resolution; arbitration; class-action waiver

Informal resolution first. Before filing a claim, you agree to email legal@meantmee.com with a description of the dispute and try in good faith to resolve it for at least 60 days.

Binding arbitration. Except for claims that qualify for small-claims court and claims for injunctive relief relating to intellectual property, any dispute will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The Federal Arbitration Act governs this provision.

Class-action waiver. YOU AND CIRCUVENT AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

Opt out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing legal@meantmee.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, with your name, account email or phone, and a clear statement that you opt out.

Nothing in this section prevents you from bringing issues to the attention of government agencies. Claims of sexual assault or sexual harassment are not subject to mandatory arbitration where the Ending Forced Arbitration of Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment Act applies.

17. Governing law and venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules, except that the arbitration provision is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. For claims not subject to arbitration, you and Circuvent consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in New York County, New York.

18. General

These Terms, together with the policies referenced in them, are the entire agreement between you and Circuvent regarding the Service. If any provision is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets.

California residents: under California Civil Code §1789.3, you may contact the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs in writing at 1625 North Market Blvd., Suite N 112, Sacramento, CA 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210.
