our guidelines

Every day, millions of young people globally turn to Wizz for virtual socializing and forging genuine connections. Guided by our core principles of transparency, security, and confidentiality, we strive to create a welcoming environment where users can express their true selves, free from the pursuit of followers and ‘likes’.

The Wizz community is crucial in shaping our app into a warm and inclusive space, and we believe it all begins with fostering a welcoming and respectful atmosphere. Our Community Guidelines establish the essential norms and expectations to safeguard our community and encourage a culture of inclusivity, sharing, and connection; they clearly define acceptable and unacceptable behaviors on Wizz. All new users are required to agree to these guidelines upon joining the app.

When there’s a breach of these guidelines, we conduct a thorough investigation and respond. This response may range from issuing a warning, filtering and deleting content, to fully suspending an account. We urge our users to bring any issues to our attention by Reporting, and our algorithms also flag potential guideline violations, enabling us to act promptly.
