Getta Hall Pass™ is a small app for a small circle. You pair with people you already know and trust, and you ask each other for permission to do things. It should feel light. These guidelines exist so everyone knows where the line is, and so you know what is worth reporting to us.
By using Getta Hall Pass™ you agree to follow these guidelines, along with our Terms and Conditions and our Privacy Policy.
The Spirit of the App
A hall pass is a bit of fun between two people who both want to be there. Both sides chose to pair. Either side can walk away at any time, with no explanation owed.
That is the whole idea. Anything that turns the app into a way to pressure, monitor, or wear someone down is against these guidelines, even if it is technically just a pass request.
Not Allowed
Do not use Getta Hall Pass™ to:
Harass, threaten, or intimidate anyone. This includes sending repeated requests to someone who has stopped answering, or using pass titles, notes, or conditions to insult, demean, or frighten a person.
Control or coerce a partner. Conditions are meant to be playful, like "text me when you get there." They are not a tool to track someone's movements, to demand proof of where they are, to restrict who they see, or to punish them for saying no. If the app is being used to control you, for example: If someone is denying you a pass to go to work, see family, or access money, that is not how this app is meant to be used. Please read the note at the end of this page.
Contact someone who does not want to hear from you. If a person removes you, blocks you, or asks you to stop, do not pair with them again through a new code.
Send sexual content to anyone who has not asked for it, or send any sexual content involving a minor. Sexual content involving minors is reported to the authorities without exception.
Post hate. No slurs or attacks based on, including but not limited to: race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, disability, disease, age, sex, gender identity, or sexual orientation.
Encourage self-harm or violence, or threaten harm against any person.
Impersonate someone else, or pretend to be a person you are not in order to get someone to pair with you.
Break the law, including using the app to arrange anything illegal.
Spam or advertise. No unsolicited messages, no promotions, no scams, no phishing, no links designed to trick someone.
Abuse the service itself. Do not attempt to break, overload, or gain unauthorized access to the app, our relay, or another person's phone.
Anyone Under 18
Getta Hall Pass™ is for adults. You must be 18 or older to use it. We do not knowingly allow anyone younger, and we will act on any report that a minor is using the app.
What We Can and Cannot See
We built this app so that we cannot read your passes. Titles, details, notes, conditions, and replies live on the two phones involved and are never stored on our servers. That is a promise we keep, and it means we cannot go looking for bad behavior on our own.
So enforcement depends on you telling us. When you report a pass, the app sends us the anonymous phone identifier of the person you are reporting, along with the pass identifier and the date. It does not send anything either of you wrote. You add your own description of what happened in the email.
Reporting
Open the pass and tap Report a problem at the bottom. That prepares an email to support@gettahallpass.com with the details we need. Tell us what happened and send it to us.
Report anything on the list above. If you are unsure whether something crosses the line, report it anyway and let us decide. You will not get in trouble for a report made in good faith.
Please do not send false reports. Reporting someone out of spite is itself a violation.
What Happens After a Report
We read every report. Depending on what we find, we may do nothing, remove the reported phone's access to our relay, or, in serious cases, contact law enforcement.
Because there are no accounts in Getta Hall Pass™, removing access is a disruption rather than a permanent ban. Someone determined to come back can install the app again as a new anonymous phone. This is an honest limitation of an app that holds no personal information about anyone. It is why the tools in your own hands matter most.
Protecting Yourself
You do not need our permission or our help to end something. From inside the app you can:
Remove a person. Every pass between you leaves your phone, they lose you from their people, and you are given a new pairing code.
Block a phone. Everything it ever sends you is dropped silently. They are never told.
Get a new pairing code from the You tab, which retires the old one immediately.
Erase everything and start over.
Blocking and removing are quiet. The other person is not notified that you blocked them.
A block is tied to their copy of the app, so someone who deletes it and installs it again arrives as a new one. They would still need your pairing code to reach you, which is why removing someone gives you a fresh one.
We also suggest sending your pairing code to one person at a time rather than posting it publicly. A code on its own gives nobody access, since a request still has to be accepted by you, but a code out in the open invites pairing requests from strangers.
If Someone Is Hurting You
This app is not a safety tool, and we are not an emergency service. If you are in danger, call 911, which works in the United States, Canada, and Mexico, or your local emergency number.
United States. The National Domestic Violence Hotline is available around the clock at 1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788, or visit thehotline.org.
Canada. Call 211, or visit 211.ca, to be connected with family violence support near you, whoever you are. It is free and confidential, and in most of Canada it answers around the clock. Women can also find a shelter near them at sheltersafe.ca; shelters answer the phone at any hour, and you do not have to stay at one to get help. If you are thinking about suicide, or worried about someone who is, call or text 988 at any hour, in English or French.
Mexico. The Red Nacional de Refugios answers around the clock at 800 822 4460 for women facing violence. The Línea de la Vida, at 800 911 2000, offers support at any hour to anyone who needs it.
If someone is using this app or any app to control or frighten you, that is worth talking to someone about.
Changes
We may update these guidelines as the app grows. The current version always lives at this address.
