Practical guidance

Protect yourself and your data

Simple precautions for the two main ways people use the directory.

For visitors

Before you start a conversation

  • Check when the profile was updated, its photos, and how completely it is filled out.
  • Never share passwords, verification codes, banking details, or photos of documents.
  • Do not open suspicious links or install an app at someone else's request.
  • Tell someone you trust where you are going and make sure you can leave independently.
  • End the contact if the person or place does not match what you expected.
For profile owners

Protect your account and privacy

  • Use a separate phone number or WhatsApp account for work contacts.
  • Do not publish your home address, documents, or other sensitive information.
  • Never share your password or one-time codes, even with someone claiming to work for DesejoLocal.
  • Pay for promotion only through the official account area.
  • Keep evidence of threats, blackmail, or attempted fraud.
Clear status labels

What profile verification means

Moderation confirms only the specific facts reviewed by the platform. It does not assess private arrangements or confirm meetings.

Use external or internal condoms and get tested regularly.
