Safety & Location Policy

Drop never broadcasts your location by default. It is only used when you turn on Public Nearby for a specific Drop, and only at the precision needed to surface nearby plans. Turn it off and you disappear from discovery.

You choose who can view your profile, who can find your plans, and who can send you requests. You can keep Drops to all friends, a hand-picked few, or open them publicly — it's always your call.

Every user and piece of content can be reported in a couple of taps, and you can block anyone instantly. Our team reviews reports and takes action — including removing content and accounts.

We combine community reporting with proactive moderation to find and remove harmful content and behaviour. Safeguarding is a core part of how Drop is built, not a bolt-on.

We design Drop with the duties of the UK Online Safety Act in mind — including risk assessment, protecting users from illegal and harmful content, and giving people clear tools to stay in control. As guidance evolves, so will we.

When you meet people from a plan: choose public places, tell a friend where you're going, trust your instincts, and leave if something feels wrong. Your safety always comes first.

For urgent safety concerns or to report something serious, email hello@getdrop.today. If someone is in immediate danger, contact your local emergency services first.
