HoopFrog, Canada's verified, privacy-first dating platform

🟢 Live · hoopfrog.com · Android July 2026

Real. Verified. You.

HoopFrog takes a deliberate stance: no swiping mechanics, no algorithms engineered for addiction, and no AI-generated profiles, ever. Every member completes selfie and pose verification, carries a public 0-100 Trust Score, and can be vouched for by friends. Compatibility is built on values, voice and video are built in, and screen-time limits help people log off and meet. Real. Verified. You. is the product spec, not a slogan.

Principles we don't compromise on

Every product decision at HoopFrog Inc. runs through these filters first.

Privacy by Design

Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and we never sell it. Biometric consent flows and PIPEDA, GDPR, and UK GDPR alignment are built in, not bolted on.

Radical Honesty

Selfie and pose verification, public 0-100 Trust Scores, and friend vouches help confirm members are who they appear to be. No AI-generated profiles, ever.

Canadian Through and Through

Built in Alberta. Serving Canadians first. Our data stays in Canada (Montreal data centre). Built to PIPEDA and PIPA.

Long-Term Thinking

We build for retention through value, not addiction. No swiping mechanics, anti-ghosting by design, and screen-time limits: we want people to find what they are looking for and log off happy.

Safety First, Always

CSAM hash-matching, human moderation, continuous scam detection, and direct reporting to child-protection authorities. Safety is an engineering discipline, not a marketing line.

Built for Everyone

Seven languages, WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility, and a platform designed for real diversity. We welcome everyone who's serious about connection.

Inclusion, by design

HoopFrog exists to help real people connect with dignity. The same belief shapes how we build our team. We are committed to a fair, inclusive and representative workplace, and to treating inclusion as something we design in from the start, not a box we tick.

Belonging

We want every person on our team, and every member on our platform, to feel respected, safe to speak up, and able to thrive.

Fair doors

We hire on merit with structured, skills-based, bias-aware processes. Adjustments are welcome at every stage, just ask.

Respect

A core value, not a poster. It guides how we work together and how we design for our members.

Reflecting our members

We aim for a team that reflects the diversity of the people we serve, at every level as we grow.

Honest and accountable

We hold ourselves to clear commitments, measure how we are doing, and speak openly about our progress and the work still ahead.

We are an early-stage company, so we would rather make honest commitments we keep than claims we cannot. This is where we stand today and what we are building toward.

Built in Alberta,
for the world

HoopFrog Inc. was founded with a simple conviction: the world doesn't need another app designed to keep you swiping. It needs a platform designed to help you stop.

We started in St. Albert, Alberta - a community that takes relationships seriously. That spirit is baked into everything we build. We are a small, focused team committed to craftsmanship over growth-hacking.

HoopFrog is federally incorporated, holds a registered Canadian trademark, and runs a dedicated privacy-compliance program for every market we serve.

A deep moral responsibility

Protecting children is not a compliance checkbox. It is our most fundamental obligation.

HoopFrog has a zero-tolerance policy for content that exploits or endangers minors. We believe we all have a genuine moral and legal responsibility to protect children, and we take this with the utmost seriousness.

We do not treat moderation as a legal formality. Every report matters, and we act on it. We report illegal content involving minors to the relevant authorities and cooperate fully with all law enforcement investigations.

Strictly 18+
Our platform is restricted to adults 18+, with age assurance checks at signup. Any account found to be operated by or targeting a minor is permanently banned immediately, no exceptions.
PhotoDNA Detection
Images uploaded to HoopFrog are scanned against PhotoDNA CSAM hash databases as part of our moderation pipeline.
Report Immediately
If you encounter any content involving a minor, report it in-app and email safety@hoopfrog.com with the subject line "CHILD SAFETY".
