Report a harmful short link.

What you can report

Reports may concern short links used to facilitate or direct users to:

• Phishing or deceptive credential collection.
• Malware, ransomware, or other malicious software.
• Fraud, scams, impersonation, or deceptive payment requests.
• Child sexual abuse material or unlawful exploitation of minors.
• Non-consensual intimate imagery or other unlawful intimate content.
• Credible threats, unlawful violence, or serious harassment.
• Copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, or other rights infringement.
• Other content or activity that violates applicable law or our Terms of Use.

What to include

A useful report gives us enough information to identify the link and understand the issue. Please include:

• The complete Tryst Link short URL.
• The destination URL, if you know it and can provide it safely.
• A concise explanation of why you believe the link is harmful or unlawful.
• Relevant screenshots, dates, or other supporting context where useful.
• Your contact details if you want us to be able to ask follow-up questions.

Do not send passwords, authentication codes, payment-card numbers, private keys, or other unnecessary sensitive information.

What happens after a report

We may review the short URL, its stored destination, relevant account information, and the information supplied with the report. Depending on the circumstances, action may include disabling a link, restricting an account, requesting additional information, or taking no action when the report does not establish a violation.

Serious or time-sensitive reports may be handled before notice is given to the account holder when delay could expose people or systems to continuing harm.

Tryst Link does not promise that every destination is reviewed before a short link is created or opened. A short URL can conceal its destination, so recipients should still use normal caution with unfamiliar links.

Appealing a restriction

If a link or account you control was restricted and you believe the decision was mistaken, email abuse@trystlink.io. Include the affected short URL or account email and explain why you believe the restriction should be reconsidered.

We may decline to restore a link when restoration would violate law, recreate the same abuse risk, expose users to harm, or interfere with an active security or legal matter.

Intellectual-property complaints

For copyright or trademark complaints, identify the protected work or right, the affected Tryst Link URL, your contact information, and the basis for the complaint. Send the notice to abuse@trystlink.io.

Law-enforcement and legal requests

Government and law-enforcement requests should be sent to hello@trystlink.io. Requests should identify the requesting authority, the relevant account or short URL where possible, the legal basis for the request, and appropriate contact details.

Requests are evaluated under applicable law and may be rejected, narrowed, or returned for clarification when they are invalid, overbroad, or insufficiently specific.

Immediate danger

Email is not an emergency service. If a situation involves an immediate threat to life or physical safety, contact the appropriate local emergency authority first. You may also send the relevant Tryst Link URL to our abuse address so that we can review the link.
