Amy & Aron's

The new digital age can be scary at times. The kids laugh at me all of the time because I am so old-fashioned. I'm not really old-fashioned either. I'm hip to the times. I work online, I meet more people online than I do in person. I mean really guys, I talk to hundreds of people every week that I have no idea what their native tongue is. It can be a creepy place in the first encounter. It doesn't have to be. Prepare yourself with SafetyPin. Whether you are looking for a babysitter, dog walker, housekeeper, roommate, date, or business partner, your back is covered with SafetyPin Technologies.

On a serious note, one thing that I do worry about especially with the adult kids in my family is dating sites and travel sites. How do you really know who you are meeting? How do you know if these people are who they say they are? Seriously, do you watch the news? Catfished? or read the paper or at least the news feed on your favorite social media? The first 48, hoarders or I almost got away with it?



I do every day. Someone is always getting duped, robbed, or murdered. I know that's in extreme cases but still, you can never be too careful. When I was younger, I would go garage saling all of the time, that isn't even a popular thing around here. It's all online and you meet up in some public parking lot to buy/sell/trade your goods. What if that sweet little old lady is actually a serial killer.

What if that super hot guy you've been stalking on your favorite dating site is the whole package. Educated, employed, good with kids, loves taco's and pizza, prefers movies to bars, like the whole package but when you meet up he's married, unemployed, and has untamed acid reflux. Is that a gamble you are really willing to make?

Even though the world is so fast-paced, there still needs to be some sort of certainty. That's where SafetyPin comes into play.

What is SafetyPin?

SafetyPin is every bit of super spy that you want to be but just don't have the time for. It checks background history like criminal, financial, and personal history, and combines those with a behavioral profile. If you meet the criteria you are awarded a pin to share with people on sites like Care.com, TaskRabbit, Rover.com, Airbnb, CouchSurfing, and your favorite dating sites so they know you are safe.

How it works

You can go to their site and apply for the pin. It takes about five minutes. They have 10,000 data sources, and their expert advisors have over 60 years’ experience in criminal profiling.

Something that I really like is they are always checking for updates and if something that changes, you can lose your pin. You have to maintain a good standing to be able to keep the pin.

Is it safe? 

Your data and your privacy are protected using up-to-the-minute encryption and security technologies, as well as best practices.
Plus, people can only see your SafetyPIN ID, never your personal information. And you control who can see even that.
At SafetyPIN, we believe your private information should stay private. So we never reveal who’s applied for a SafetyPIN, whether they got one or not.

Is it worth it?

There is no price that you can put on safety. Knowing that I can have peace of mind ad it only costs $1 to apply and $6 for the first 6 months. Less than $5/month after that.

If you are looking for n easy and effective way to keep yourself safe, SafetyPin is a great place to go.
