We never hesitate to take action on anything that could make someone feel unsafe on Bump. Protecting our community comes first, always.
As stated in our community guidelines, we want everyone using Bump to remember:
If you’re about to do something on Bump that you wouldn’t want done to you (or someone you care about), then it’s probably not okay. So, don’t do it!
If you don’t agree with our community guidelines or safety policies, Bump isn’t the right app for you, and we’d recommend not using it.
