To report spam to our Trust and Safety team, submit a report directly on Meetup.
What is spam?
Spam messages are commercial in nature, website advertisements, and unsolicited. Inappropriate content can be anything from a derogatory comment to an offensive photo.
Meetup considers any content sent to a member that is irrelevant, impersonal, unsolicited, promotional, or repetitive as spam.
What is inappropriate content?
Spam is different from an inappropriate, derogatory, or mean message. If you are reporting a message of this nature, please enter some information about the situation under Is there anything else you’d like to tell Meetup.
Harassment and bullying are not allowed on Meetup. Meetup will honor requests to remove content that publicly shames or degrades a private individual. Members should first contact the uploader or the organizer to request that content be removed.
Hate speech, supremacy, or behavior that incites hate or violence against individuals or groups of people based on who they are, or what their beliefs are, is prohibited.
