CONSENT FIRST. KINK ALWAYS.
Safety is the spine of every good scene. Here is how we run the platform, and how you can protect yourself while you explore.
Real people.
Real limits.
Four things we will not tolerate
These are the fastest ways to get removed from Aussie BDSM.
Ignoring A Safeword
A safeword is a full stop, not a suggestion. If a partner uses their word or a pre-agreed signal, the scene ends and aftercare starts. Members who push past a called safeword are banned on the first report we can verify. We keep chat logs where the law allows, and we cooperate with police when a matter crosses into assault. This is the rule everything else on the site rests on.
Coercion Or Pressure
Consent given under pressure is not consent. That includes badgering someone into a hard limit, using a power dynamic to override a no, or dangling access to a community as leverage. If you would not say it in front of a room of peers, do not send it in a DM. We read reports carefully and we side with the person who said no.
Faking Identity Or Photos
Stolen images, borrowed identities, and fake ages break trust for everyone. Our moderators run reverse image checks and cross-reference details before a profile is approved. Catfishing gets an immediate removal, and any hint of an underage user is escalated to the eSafety Commissioner and, where relevant, state police. Be who you are. That is the whole point of kink connections.
Unsafe Play Content
We do not host content that romanticises non-consent, glorifies harm, or frames a person as an animal. That last point covers pet-play and related roleplay in any form. We also decline breath play tutorials, edge-play how-tos, and anything that looks like coaching a minor. Educational kink content is welcome. Content that puts someone in hospital, or on a charge sheet, is not.

If something feels off
Trust the feeling. Pause the chat, screenshot anything that worries you, and hit the report button on the profile. Reports reach a moderator, not a queue. We reply within one business day, sooner for anything that suggests immediate risk. You can also block first and explain later. Nobody on our team will ask you to give the other person another chance. Your gut is doing its job, so let it.
Meeting in person
Pick a public first meet, even for a play negotiation. A quiet pub, a cafe, a munch. Tell a friend where you will be and when you plan to check in. Keep your own transport. Do not hand over ID copies, keys, or bank details on a first date. If a scene follows, do it somewhere at least one of you knows well, with sober aftercare planned. Sensible is sexy.
Support outside the site
If something has crossed a line, you are not on your own. 1800RESPECT is a free national service for sexual assault, family and domestic violence. Lifeline on 13 11 14 covers crisis support any hour. For online abuse or image-based harm, the eSafety Commissioner can act quickly. Report to us as well so we can remove the person from the platform, but please reach out to a service that can support you first.
