Be aware, if your profile was banned, it will remain banned until you contact the Review Team, and have received a response from them. Users who have repeatedly violated our Terms Of Service or Profile Guidelines may be permanently banned.

Our Review Team works normal business hours, and answers inquiries in the order they are received. They try to answer all inquiries within one business day; however, depending on the day of the week, the time of the day, and the number of inquiries in the queue before yours, there may be a delay in receiving a response.

Your profile may have been reviewed, censored, cropped, or banned for the picture, for the text, or both. While waiting for us to respond to your inquiry, we strongly recommend you review Grindr's Profile Guidelines and Terms Of Service:

Grindr Profile Guidelines
