Are JoinTheSwing public guides reviewed before publication, and by whom?

Yes. JoinTheSwing public guides are reviewed before they are published. The review focuses on clarity, respectful tone, and whether the guide clearly separates general information from venue- or location-specific details.

Yes. JoinTheSwing public guides are reviewed before publication. The review is an editorial check, not a guarantee that every venue, event, or local rule will be correct at every moment. It is intended to make the guide clear, useful, and appropriate for readers who may be new to the lifestyle. Readers should still confirm current details with the relevant venue or destination.

During review, the review checks the guide for plain language, respectful tone, and consistency with the site’s public information. It also looks for claims that could be mistaken for a promise of safety, privacy, legality, or access. When advice depends on a club, resort, event, or local law, the guide should say so and direct readers to verify the current requirements.

The review does not mean JoinTheSwing owns, operates, or vets every club or destination listed. Listings and guides can describe options, but conditions, membership rules, dress expectations, and local requirements can change. Readers should use the guide as a starting point and check the venue’s own current information before making plans.

Public guides are separate from the members-only gated site. The guides and answers library is available publicly to help people understand topics and plan next steps, while the verified-member community opens at launch. New registration is currently closed, but the free launch list remains available for people who want updates.

Verified-only introductions, when JoinTheSwing opens.

Join the free list for registration updates. New registration is closed. The list is not an account or a subscription. Existing members can sign in on the website.

Digital membership purchases take place in the iOS and Android apps via StoreKit 2 and Google Play Billing. Member identity verification runs through an automated government ID, biometric face-match and liveness check by Veriff: from the current Veriff check JoinTheSwing never receives or stores the images — we retain the verification result, Veriff's session reference, a consent receipt and non-biometric review metadata. Members who verified through our earlier, retired in-house pass may still have ID, selfie or couple photos in our private verification-document storage, deleted when the account is deleted.
