How to protect privacy while online dating?

Online dating privacy isn’t about hiding behind a fake name, fake photo, or profile. Always remember not to share your full name, phone number, and address to anyone on dating sites. Avoid scammers by refusing to pay for any information over the app. Also, do not post naked pictures on dating sites.

Ensure to remove information about your workplace or school and always change your primary pictures because this app auto-fills your current photo on Facebook as your profile picture for dating sites. Avoid linking your Instagram and also do not register with Facebook and also be cautious of your location features. Ensure not to release any of your financial information and also set up a second number and emails. When someone is trolling on, you ensure to block such people, and lastly, always do a background check on the person you are with on the dating sites.

Never share your full name, address, or phone number on a dating site or app. Be selective about which photos to use. Make sure you are always appropriate enough that you wouldn’t be ashamed to have your family members see it. It would be best if you also were wary of sharing where you go to school or where you work. The most common way that Tinder predators find your information is to filter a search for their first name by their school or workplace.

Change your primary photo. Tinder will auto-fill your current Facebook profile photo to be your primary photo as well. These two photos should not be duplicates. Also, don’t link to Instagram. Your Instagram photos display information about your favorite places. You wouldn’t want a stranger from Tinder to show up at one of these sites.
