Eithr is for fun, quick “this or that” questions. Keep it light, keep it kind. Short version: would you be fine with your mum, your friend and a stranger all seeing this poll?
Go for it
- Everyday dilemmas, food fights, hot takes on movies, cricket, music, tech and life.
- Questions about yourself (“Which haircut?”) and friendly ones for your friends.
- Opinions people can disagree on, as long as nobody is being attacked.
Not on Eithr
- Hate or harassment: attacking people for religion, caste, gender, sexuality, race, region, disability or looks; bullying, mocking or “rate this person” polls about someone who didn't agree to it.
- Real names and private details of anyone else: phone numbers, addresses, photos, school or workplace.
- Snaps of other people without their OK, nudity or anything sexual, and photos of anyone who looks under 18 in a revealing way.
- Sexual content, and anything at all sexualising minors (reported to the authorities).
- Violence or threats, glorifying violence, or encouraging self-harm.
- Spam and scams: ads, links to make money, fake giveaways, repeated or copy-paste polls.
- Illegal things: drugs, weapons, gambling or anything else that breaks Indian law.
- Misleading people on health, elections or emergencies, or pretending to be someone else (including Eithr).
If you see something
Tap ⋯ → Report on the poll, Report under a comment, or Report on the person's profile. Reports are anonymous. A poll or comment that several people report is hidden straight away until we review it. You can also block anyone from their profile.
What we do
- Remove polls that break these rules.
- Ban accounts for serious or repeated breaks. A ban stops voting and posting and hides that person's polls.
- Keep removed polls and reports for a while so we can review appeals and help the authorities when the law requires it.
Think we got it wrong? Write to us (below) and we'll take another look.

Questions, privacy requests or complaints: use Report on any poll or profile, and we'll review it. We act on valid complaints within the time the law sets.
