Zuug is a tool to empower singles and their families to navigate the classic shidduch process – in a dignified, safe, completely private, environment – ensuring that they are in the driver's seat throughout the process. It is not a dating app. Singles can't browse other singles, and singles can not be in contact with other singles via the app. No singles contact information is ever shared with other singles via the app. Shadchanim also can't browse singles information in the app.
