Terms of Service
Last updated: August 9, 2026
These terms are the rules of the room. They exist for the same reason our zones open only in venues with real security on the door: so that speaking to a stranger stays a good idea. By creating an account or using 22Blues, you agree to them.
1. Who can join
22Blues is for adults aged 18 and over. By creating an account you confirm you meet that age, that the information you provide is accurate, and that you are joining as yourself — accounts are personal and may not be shared or transferred.
2. What 22Blues is
22Blues helps you discover places chosen by our editorial team, and gives the people who are actually in them somewhere to talk. Inside a zone you can read the night’s questions, ask one of your own, answer other people’s, and reply in public. Answering is what makes you visible; everything before that is silent. Meeting anyone in person happens in the venue and on your own initiative — the app arranges nothing, sets no appointments, and never gives one member another member’s location.
3. Real presence only
Zones resolve from your device’s location, and you may only take part in a room you are genuinely standing in. Spoofing your location, taking part on someone else’s behalf, or manipulating presence in any way is grounds for immediate removal.
4. Anonymity, and what it is not
You choose whether each answer carries your name, and that choice is locked the moment you post it — we will not undo it in either direction. Anonymity exists so that people can speak freely. It is not cover: anonymous content is still connected to your account on our side, still bound by these terms, and will still cost you your account if you abuse it.
5. How you treat people
Nothing here obliges anyone to answer you. A question can go unanswered, a message can go unanswered, and a chat can simply end when the night does — each of those is a complete answer, and you may not work around it. No harassment, no pressure, no following anyone who has not invited it. Behave in a zone the way a good guest behaves in someone’s home — what happens face to face matters to us as much as what happens in the app.
6. Zones and gatekeepers
Zones open only inside vetted venues and within safe hours. Members of our team may be present in any zone as ordinary guests in order to keep it safe. We may close a zone, decline your presence in one, or remove a member whenever safety calls for it.
7. Reporting and enforcement
You can block any member instantly and report any behavior that feels wrong. Reports are reviewed continuously; depending on what we find, we may warn, suspend, or permanently remove an account. Keeping this community what it is sometimes means deciding someone doesn’t belong in it — that judgment is ours to make.
8. Content
The pages, photography, and editorial work on 22Blues belong to us or our licensors and may not be republished without permission. The questions, answers, and replies you post remain yours; you must have the right to share what you submit, and you grant us the licence needed to display it within the service. Public replies are public — treat anything you post in a room as something the room can read and will remember.
9. Venues are independent
The venues that host zones are independent businesses. We choose them with care, but we do not operate them — entry, purchases, and house rules are between you and the venue.
10. Meeting people is your choice
We build the conditions for safe, real-world meetings — vetted venues, sensible hours, and a room where nobody can reach you until you choose to speak. But the decision to meet someone is always yours, and to the extent the law allows, 22Blues is not liable for what members do, in the app or in person.
11. Ending the relationship
You can delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate accounts that break these terms. Provisions that by their nature should survive — content rights, limitations of liability — survive termination.
12. Governing law and changes
These terms are governed by the laws of the Arab Republic of Egypt. If we change them in a meaningful way, we will tell you in the app before the change takes effect.
