Why is my Grindr account banned?
Answer
If you have been banned from Grindr, it is most likely because you violated our Community Guidelines. Our guidelines are in place to let users express themselves freely while also maintaining a safe space for all members of our community.
I Got Banned From Grindr!
Your account was created from a mobile device that was not linked to an approved (and verified) Facebook or Instagram account; You’ve violated Grindr’s Terms and Conditions (for example, sharing your login information with another person); We have determined that you are under 18 years old. Accounts belonging to minors who misrepresent their age will be permanently banned without warning. Your account has been flagged by other users as fraudulent; You’ve attempted to hack or otherwise disrupt Grindr. If your profile is spamming other users, promoting illegal activity, or engaging in any other disruptive behavior, it may be removed from the platform. Please see our [Terms & Conditions]() for more details. You’ve requested to be removed from Grindr and have not provided accurate contact information to facilitate this process; Your account is using an anonymous VPN address or proxy; You’ve asked for your personal data to be deleted, but you haven’t logged out completely from the app (the residual profile will indicate that it’s temporarily unavailable).
HOW I GOT SUSPENDED FROM GRINDR
If your Grindr account was banned, please send us a message with some basic identifying information (i.e., name, email address, etc.) so that we can help you rectify the situation as soon as possible. Please also note whether you are using a mobile device or desktop computer when attempting to log into your Grindr account. If logged in from a desktop computer, please provide the URL of the website you’re attempting to access.
If your account was suspended or deleted due to an infringement of our Terms and Conditions we will be unable to assist you in reactivating your profile at this time, but please note that all previously purchased Grindr Xtra features and subscription time will be forfeited. If your Grindr account was banned for violating our terms about inappropriate behavior then you have violated the Community Guidelines outlined below: Please read these guidelines before creating your next account.
Grindr does not permit users under 18 years old as per US law. Accounts belonging to minors who misrepresent their age will be permanently banned without warning.
Accounts engaging in fraudulent activity may be investigated by law enforcement at our request. If your account is caught cheating, you may be banned instantly and reported to the authorities.
If your account has been banned, you may not create another one to evade the ban. Having multiple banned accounts will result in a complete ban of all Grindr accounts associated with your email address. If this occurs, you will not be issued a refund for unused time on any previously purchased Grindr Xtra features or subscription time and we will also be unable to assist you in reactivating that profile at this time. Any attempt made by users who are creating false identities with hopes of evading their existing ban is considered identity theft and is illegal. Please take this into consideration before attempting to log back into your account after it’s been removed.
We’ll do everything we can to get your banned account restored but please note our responsiveness is at our own discretion and we don’t guarantee that all profiles will be reactivated.
