Your Safety. Our Highest Priority.
Drom is built from the ground up to engineer physical safety, psychological comfort, and zero ambiguity. From gender-gated filters to Strava performance authentication, here is how we protect our community.
1. Women-First Safety Architecture
The 'Women only' intent tag is strictly gated at the database layerβcompletely invisible to male profiles. Female runners can create and join exclusive, safe-space training sessions.
2. Anti-Catfishing & Strava Sync
Direct Strava OAuth integration pulls authentic workouts and verified 5K paces. Combined with mandatory genuine face photos, you always know exactly who you are meeting.
3. Transparent Intent & Relationship Status
Explicit 'Single' or 'Taken' badges cleanly separate athletic motivation from dating interest, eliminating awkwardness and creating full psychological comfort.
4. Active Moderation & Rapid Response
Instant 1-tap block and report mechanisms in every profile and conversation. Our human moderation team reviews reports within 24 hours with strict zero-tolerance enforcement.
Real-World Meetup Safety Guidelines
Meet in Public, Populated Areas
For initial runs with a new partner, always meet at well-known landmarks (HaYarkon Park, Tel Aviv Promenade, daylight stadiums). Avoid secluded unlit areas.
Share Route & Live Location
Inform a friend or family member before heading out and share your live location. Structured in-chat Run Proposals ensure you always have exact meetup coordinates.
Maintain Situational Awareness
Keep one earbud out, face oncoming road traffic, and keep your phone charged. Physical awareness is non-negotiable.
Respect Boundaries & Trust Your Instincts
If anything feels off, leave immediately. You are never obligated to finish a workout. Use in-app reporting once safe.
