Reporting, leaving, and what happens next
If a conversation feels wrong, you can leave or report it immediately. Here is what those choices do.
1. How to report
The Report button is available at all times during a call. Choose the reason that best describes what happened:
- Nudity or sexual content
- This person appears to be under 18
- Harassment or threats
- Spam or scams
- Something else
Choosing any reason ends the conversation immediately and moves you to a new person.
2. What happens next
Your report goes into a queue for one moderator to review.
If several different people report the same person in a short window, that person is automatically disconnected and blocked for a period without waiting for a human review. A report that someone appears to be under 18 triggers that block immediately.
3. Leaving a conversation
You never owe a stranger an explanation. Next ends the conversation instantly and finds someone else. Closing the tab works too.
4. What Bereka records
Video and audio are never recorded. They pass directly between the two people. Chat text is relayed but not stored.
Connection details, reports, and consent records are kept so abuse can be acted on. Read the Privacy Policy for the full detail.
5. If something serious happened
If someone has been harmed, or if what you saw may have involved a child, report it in Bereka. The moderator acts on reports and may refer serious matters to law enforcement.
You should also report it to the appropriate local authorities.
6. Bereka is 18+
Bereka is only for people who are 18 or older. If you are under 18, this service is not for you.
