Our consulting team
High workload in the team

We are currently managing a large number of cases. We therefore ask for your patience if there are longer waiting times for your request.

Personal counselling

How we support you

Every case is different. That’s why you will always receive personal and individual counselling. Our services range from an emotionally stabilising initial consultation to aftercare. Typical cases of counselling at HateAid are:

  • Someone has insulted or threatened you in hate comments.
  • Your personal information has been posted online without your permission.
  • You have been sent nude pictures without being asked.
  • False claims are spread about you on social media.
  • You are attacked in online groups.
  • Someone has posted intimate pictures of you online.
  • A fake profile of you was created, with your pictures and personal info.
  • You’ve discovered inciting content.

Legal enforcement

It is important to you to show your attackers their limits. You want to take legal action against infringing content. We support you with the following free services:

  • We document, report and check digital violence for you
  • Help with filing a complaint
  • Litigation financing
  • Referral to competent contact persons, such as psychologists, IT specialists and other counselling centres.

Possible procedures for criminal and civil proceedings can be found in our magazine.

By the way, if you have received an unwanted Dickpic, a penis picture, you can directly file a complaint on our platform Dickstinction and defend yourself against this sexual harassment.
