Private and Secure by Design: How fem-boy.com Protects Your Profile

For a lot of people on fem-boy.com, privacy is not a preference. It is the difference between exploring who you are on your own terms and being outed to an employer, a family member or a hostile community. We build with that reality in mind, and this post walks through the protections that exist today.

You control who sees you

Your profile is yours to dial up or down. You can hide yourself from discovery entirely while you set things up or take a break, and choose who you want to be shown to. Your exact location is never shown to other members — distance is approximate, and your date of birth stays private; other people only see your age.

Private photos stay private

Public photos are reviewed before they appear. Beyond those, you can keep a private album that nobody can open unless you personally grant them access — and you can revoke that access at any time. Private images are protected on the server itself, not just hidden in the app, so a copied link does not get anyone around your decision.

Blocking that actually blocks

When you block someone, they disappear from your discovery, your matches, your messages and community spaces like General Talk — and you disappear from theirs. No workarounds, no "they can still see your comments." Reporting is one tap from any profile or conversation, and reports go to human moderators.

Safer meetups with date check-ins

Meeting someone in person is the point for many members, and it is also where risk is highest. Before a date, you can set up a check-in from your settings: tell us when and roughly where you are meeting, and nominate a trusted contact. If you do not check in afterwards, they get an alert so someone knows to reach out to you.

Security under the hood

• All traffic is encrypted with HTTPS, and passwords are stored only as strong one-way hashes.
• Sessions are short-lived and refresh securely, and logging out removes push notifications from that device.
• Strict browser security policies block whole classes of script-injection attacks.
• Emails we send never include the text of your messages or the names of the people you are talking to.

Your data, your call

You can download a full copy of the data we hold about you at any time. If you delete your account, your photos are removed and your remaining data is permanently erased after a short grace period in case you change your mind. We do not use advertising or third-party tracking cookies, and we do not sell your information. The details are in our Privacy Policy.

A few habits that help

• Use a username that does not include your legal name or workplace.
• Avoid photos that show your street, your car's plate or identifiable landmarks near home.
• Keep conversations on fem-boy.com until you trust someone — people who push you to move to another app straight away are a common scam pattern.
• Never send money to someone you have not met, whatever the story.
