Nimbuzz Etiquette

Nimbuzz Etiquette

Nimbuzz is a community, and members of a community must respect each other. If something is not permitted or causes offence in real life then it is also not wanted on Nimbuzz. In particular, Nimbuzz expects all members not to break the law, not to get involved in any offensive, obscene or unwanted sexual exchanges, and not to attempt to harm a young person in any way.

Be careful!
For the safety and privacy of your Nimbuzz account, remember to never enter your password unless you're on the real Nimbuzz website or product. Choose a Nimbuzz ID that doesn’t give away your name, location, birthday or gender (male/female), think about using an avatar instead of a real photo, and choose a password that is very hard to guess. You should never give out your real contact details (home address, phone number etc.) except to people you know, and we don’t recommend arranging to meet in person strangers you met online. Be sure to only download software, or purchase products or services from sites you trust.

So for example, apart from Nimbuzz’s terms of use, which you must also comply with, when using Nimbuzz you must not:

  • Use vulgar, profane, racially, religiously or sexually offensive or obscene language.
  • Post or request sexually explicit images or other offensive content.
  • Exploit or abuse anyone in any way and especially someone under 18.
  • Discuss illegal activity, such as how to get drugs, make explosives, distribute viruses, or pirate copyright works.
  • Use Nimbuzz to send viruses, pirated files, chain letters, spam or other prohibited content.
  • Ask for or offer sexually explicit images, and/or other material harmful to children.
  • Harass, bully, threaten, insult, embarrass, or do anything else to another Nimbuzz user that is unwanted.
  • Hack, flood or disrupt any chatroom or ID.
  • Infringe anyone else's intellectual property rights, including any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary rights.
  • Impersonate or say you represent Nimbuzz.
  • Link to content not allowed under any of Nimbuzz’s rules or conditions.
  • Try and get a Nimbuzz member's password or other account information.
  • Post or request personal or other information from someone else and especially someone under 18.
  • Use Nimbuzz while driving.

You can report any unwanted or illegal activity or any other problem by contacting us on support@nimbuzz.com.
