Safety Tips
Your safety on Joya
Last updated: 1 June 2026
VYBs in public locations
VYBs always take place in public locations, in small groups of 3 to 6 people. This is intentional, so that meetups feel natural and safe from the start.
Public places, small groups
You are never meeting one person alone. Joya always brings you into a group. Meeting points are public, easy to find, and suggested by Joya.
If something does not feel right on location, the group can choose a different public place together.
Before the meetup
Take a quick look at where you are meeting. The suggested locations are public and you can check them on the map beforehand.
At the meetup
Trust your gut. You can leave at any time without having to explain yourself.
Share only what you want to share.
If something is wrong
Report inappropriate behaviour directly in the app or write to us at hello@joya.social.
In case of immediate danger, call emergency services.
