Fun but ethical?

Sharing is a boon that our generation has been blessed with and is highly prevalent. This boon can become a curse if screenshots are misused or misplaced and fall into the wrong hands when hacked.

Sharing screenshots which contain private information about someone else is a violation of their privacy.

Bumble’s community guidelines do not stop you or ban you when you take screenshots; however, keeping the privacy and security of all Bumble users in mind, one should be careful. If someone you know sends screenshots of someone from Bumble, you should immediately delete the photo.
