What is ASKfm?

ASKfm is an anonymous social networking site which is built on a question and answer format.

How does ASKfm work?

Users can ask questions and respond to them, either by text or by posting videos, and they can do this anonymously. Users can follow other users, but they cannot see who is following them.   It is possible to ask questions anonymously or users can identify themselves. Questions only appear on a profile when they have been answered, and users can choose not to receive questions from anonymous posters.

Is it safe for children and young people?

According to ASKfm, if you are a minor, and thus under the age of legal majority in your country, you must have your parents’ or guardian’s consent, and by using the Services you are confirming that you have received that consent.

What is the minimum age?
