Terms of Use
Last updated: October 7, 2026
Introductions only
Oxford Matchmaker is an introductions service. We help participants discover and coordinate potential matches, but we do not supervise or control interactions between users.
User responsibility
You are responsible for your own decisions and interactions when using the service.
- meet in public places when meeting someone new
- use your own judgment before sharing personal information
- treat other participants respectfully and lawfully
Acceptable conduct
Harassment, abuse, impersonation, scraping, and misuse of participant information are not allowed. Oxford Matchmaker may remove access where necessary.
No guarantees
Oxford Matchmaker does not guarantee compatibility, conduct, availability, or any particular outcome from a match or introduction.
Safety and reporting
If you encounter a safety concern or inappropriate behaviour, contact Oxford Matchmaker promptly through the service email channel so the issue can be reviewed.
Liability
To the extent permitted by law, Oxford Matchmaker provides the service on an as-is basis and is not responsible for the actions, statements, or conduct of participants.
Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded under applicable law.
Referral recognition points (referral-v1)
A verified member who accepts the optional referral rules earns points when a genuinely new member arrives through their referral link or QR code, verifies their email (which automatically confirms attribution), and completes the matching essentials: name, contact email, adult age, ideal age range, gender, who they seek, and relationship type.
Existing participants, duplicates, self-referrals and referral cycles do not qualify. Points do not affect matching. Invalid awards may be corrected by compensating entries after review. Photographs, optional questionnaire answers, contact handles and marketing consent are not required for rewards.
Confirmed referral records are retained for points and program audits. Any changes to the program or future rewards will be announced separately with applicable eligibility and privacy terms.
