Community Guidelines

Hot or Not Dos

Do upload only your own photos and videos

We take copyrights very seriously. If you don't own the rights to a photo or video, please don't post it, as it's against our rules and may get you blocked from Hot or Not.

Do respect other users

We're a very diverse community. This means you should respect other people's beliefs, interests and property while on Hot or Not.

Do send original messages to other users

Rather than copying and pasting the same message to everyone you like, read their profile, see what they're into and send an appropriate message. 'Hey, I see you like surfing' is always better than 'Hey sexy!'

Do follow our guidelines

We don't like having to remind our users to follow these guidelines, and we hate having to block people, so play nice and you'll have much more fun on Hot or Not!

Do share your life with the world

Hot or Not allows you to tell the world about yourself and your work. Take complete advantage of the opportunity to shout about yourself and our wonderful community!

Do have fun

Enjoy your time on Hot or Not. Chat to people, make friends and arrange to meet up in real life. Whatever you do, have fun doing it!

Hot or Not Don'ts

Don't verbally abuse other users

You should behave the same way on Hot or Not as you would in real life. Be nice to people you meet online, like you would be face to face.

Don't pretend you're someone you're not

We hope you'll meet people in real life through Hot or Not, so we ask that you use your real name, photo and info in your profile. Don't pretend to be someone else, or set up a profile as a couple or group.

Don't post your contact details in public

Please don't post your phone number, address, email or website URL in your profile, photos or in public comments, as we'll delete these images or details.

Don't upload tasteless and pornographic material

There are places you can go to upload porn and shocking images and video, but this isn't one of them, so please don't do it. That doesn't mean you can't be sexy in your photos, just know what the limits are.

Don't do anything illegal on our site

We don't look kindly on illegal activity on Hot or Not, so you'll certainly be banned from the site, and may end up being reported to the authorities.

Don't spam our users

Do not try to sell products, other sites, or yourself on Hot or Not. You'll be banned straight away.

Don't post photos of your children

While you’re welcome to let other users know you have kids, in chat or your profile, it’s against Hot or Not rules to post pictures of kids, even if you’re also in the photo.
