SHOW UP
DeutschCommunity Rules
As of 05.11.2026
1. Be real
Your own, current photos, your real first name and your real age. We ban fake profiles. If you want, we verify your profile with a selfie and give you the "Verified" badge; only our team sees the selfie and it is deleted after the review.
2. Stay fair
No harassment, no insults, no hate, no threats, no sexual content without consent. No means no – at a meet-up, in the chat, and the second time too. You can report harassment in the chat without having to explain yourself further.
3. Show up
For Moves and events you accept, you turn up or cancel in good time. After every Move we ask both sides whether it took place. A confirmation that you did not turn up counts against your Show-up badge; if it drops below "Reliable", others see no badge on your profile at all until you show up again. Cancelling in good time counts for nobody.
4. Safety at meet-ups
Meet in public places the first time and let someone know. Do not share addresses, ID details or payment data in the chat. If someone behaves differently from what was agreed, end the meet-up – you owe nobody an explanation.
5. Photos and Sweat Shots
Upload only photos of yourself, no pictures of other people without their permission, no logos and no advertising. Sweat Shots are created only live with the camera and are at most 24 hours old; they show sport, not nudity. People who are not unlocked see only a blurred negative without any profile link.
6. No business
No advertising, no selling and no recruiting for classes, coaching, supplements or services. No links to shops, no chain messages, no spam.
7. No minors
SHOW UP is for people aged 18 and over. If a profile appears to be a minor, report it. We review such reports first and delete accounts belonging to a minor.
8. Report
If someone does not follow the rules, report the profile, the message, the photo or the voice message. The reasons are: fake profile, inappropriate content, harassment, not showing up, spam or advertising, appears to be a minor, other. We review every report. We have zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive users. We review reports within 24 hours, remove offending content and remove users who violate these rules. You never learn who reported you.
9. Block
You can block anyone. Blocked people no longer see you, cannot message you and cannot join you; you no longer see them in Discover. Blocking is possible at any time and needs no reason.
10. Consequences
If rules are broken, we warn, suspend or delete accounts. For serious breaches – violence, threats, minors, sexual content without consent, repeated fraud – we suspend immediately. Where an account is suspended for a breach, we do not refund Premium amounts.
11. How we moderate
Our moderation team reviews reports by hand. Only moderators see reported photos and voice messages, every access is logged, and the file is deleted after the decision, at the latest after 30 days. On request we give reasons for a decision. You can write to us about a decision at hello@show-up.de; we answer questions and support requests within 24 hours, also via "Write to us" in the app.
12. What applies to everyone
These rules apply to profile, photos, chats, groups, lobbies, Moves, events and Sweat Shots. By using the service you accept them together with the terms of use and the privacy policy. We may also act on breaches we notice without a report.
