Safety on Saucy Over Sixty: Flirt Freely, Stay in Control
Checks you can see, privacy you set and real people on hand at any hour.
Is Saucy Over Sixty Safe?
Saucy Over Sixty gives you proper protections and keeps you in charge of them: an optional ID check that costs nothing, a username in place of your name, instant blocking, reporting from inside the site, and uploads screened by software and by people. Nobody checks every profile, so a little common sense does the rest.
It's for adults only. Members confirm under the terms that they have no sexual-offence convictions and are not on a sex offenders register, but the company doesn't run criminal background checks or verify what members say, so the badges below are worth a look. Our guide to whether Saucy Over Sixty is legit covers the terms, and the features page shows the rest of the site.
Identity Checks: See Who's Real
Three checks that can confirm a member is genuine, plus automatic age estimation.
ID check and badge
An optional government ID check, at no charge, that adds an ID verified badge to your profile.
Cuts the risk of catfishing.
Live video check
A moderator confirms on a live video call that you're who you say you are.
No documents needed.
Staff validation
A staff review can validate a profile and add an admin validation badge.
Another badge worth spotting.
Age estimation
Automatic, with more checks where the law requires them.
Helps keep under-18s out.

More in our meeting safely guide.
Money and scams
Never send money, gift cards or cryptocurrency to anyone you haven't met. Members aren't allowed to ask each other for money, so a request is a red flag in itself, and so is a rush to move you to WhatsApp.
Dating scams over 60 has the warning signs and where to report one.
Consent and Private Photos: Yours to Share, Nobody Else's
Consent comes first, in messages and in person: a cheeky photo is for someone who asked for it.
The law agrees. In England and Wales, intentionally sharing an intimate photo or film of someone without their consent is a crime under the Sexual Offences Act 2003, as is threatening to share one, and Home Office guidance says that covers images faked to look genuine. In Scotland, the Abusive Behaviour and Sexual Harm (Scotland) Act 2016 makes disclosing, or threatening to disclose, an intimate photograph or film an offence.
