Frequently Asked Questions

Why can't I view the profiles before I sign up?
At Eligon, our member's privacy is a top priority. This site contains public figures, CEO's and senior executives that are highly concerned with their privacy and they wouldn't want their private information to be revealed to the public or any random site visitor. Only after your application is approved and your identity verified would you be able to access the private profiles of our members. Hide
Why must I supply my education and career information during the application process?
As mentioned previously. Eligon.ca was created towards executives and top professionals. To maintain our community's unique atmosphere, we've developed our proprietary screening process. Acceptance to the website is depending on the combination of your income, education and career background information submitted during registration. Hide
Is it safe?
  • Members are legally bound to be Honest
  • Upon successful registration, all members sign a legal agreement declaring that information submitted to Eligon is true.

Legal action will be taken in case of agreement breach.
  • Separation of Private and Public Information
  • We place great value in the privacy of our clients. Sensitive private information is never made available to subscribers, and general profile information is selectively disclosed only to users of the group chosen by the user.

Who can access the private information I submit during application?

It is important to note that our screening staff is the only one that is able to access this sensitive information. In addition Eligon is heavily secured to prevent any breach of the company's databases. We guarantee to never use the information provided to us. Hide
Who can see my profile and photos?

Only selected and relevant members are able to view your profile and photos.

These selected members are all:

  1. People of your socioeconomic group
  2. Candidates whose identity has been verified
  3. Members of the desired gender who are in turn seeking your gender.
  4. Members with a certain level of compatibility.
Hide
Who is Eligon for and what are your screening criteria?

This community was established for busy professional singles that have little or no time for conventional dating and are unable to use public dating sites due to the fear of encountering their clients, employees or patients. We're screening our members to gather singles of a similar mindset, background and accomplishments for a greater successful relationship.

We're looking for singles with a higher education and a senior position in their career.

Our screening staff is looking for singles of a similar socioeconomic status and does not evaluate whether applicants are good enough to join the community.

Hide
Can I use a fake name, or remain anonymous?
None of the information you provide during the registration is made available to your compatibles. You must submit a real name for ID verification purposes however you may request to display a nickname instead of your first name by contacting us. Hide
Am I obligated to pay for a membership once I accept the agreement?
No, the dating services agreement does not obligate you to pay for a membership. You may choose your membership type after trying our service for 2 days for free. Hide
What is the Eligon compatibility formula?

We operate like a virtual matchmaking agency rather than a dating site matching our members according to a unique compatibility formula developed with the help of Beth Mares, an established Toronto psychotherapists and relationship counsellor with over 20 years experience.

The formula consists of two parts:

  1. An evaluation of an individual's core beliefs and values that are a common source of conflict among married couples.
  2. A computerization of traditional matchmaking practices.

Our original technique of compatibility calculation is a perfect balance of common sense and experience which will increase the chance of meeting one's life companion.

For Detailed Information Hide
How do I Join?
You may apply to Eligon by going to the homepage or scrolling all the way down on this page and filling in the form to start the registration process. Hide
What information is displayed on my profile and what information remains private?

Profile Information:

First Name, Age, City, Profession, Marital Status, Number of Children, Do you want children, Do you drink, Do you smoke, Religion, Ethnicity, Height, Hair Color, and Eye Color.

Answers to your profile questions: "Things I can't live without", "I respect people that are", "Favourite Books & Movies", "My motto in life", "Ideal vacation place", "In my free time I enjoy", "The ideal day would include", "What I'm looking for in a partner" and "One Sentence about me".

Private information that is collected for administrative use and compatibility formula includes:

Email, Full Name, Address, Postal Code, Date of Birth, Sexual Orientation, Phone Number, Education location, Degree attained, Income, About your company, and number of employees in the company.

Hide
How do you verify my income and the details in the application?

We've created a proprietary Identity verification process that may include a soft-hit credit check which allows us to confirm who the person is filling out the application.

Some details revealed in this check include, full name, address, marital status, place of employment and full contact information.

Due to the fact that we are unable to verify a person's income we utilize the following 2 methods to ensure users provide us with authentic information.

  1. During the registration process all applicants accept a legal agreement declaring that all the information provided is accurate, hence they're legally bound to be honest.
  2. We utilize a self reporting mechanism which allows our users to report any misrepresentation and foul play. If a report is submitted, we'll launch a full investigation and will not hesitate to take legal action if contract breach is discovered.
Hide
Do I have to provide a photo?
Even though an extensive emphasis is placed on the content of users' profiles, we also recognize that for many people, physical appearance is an important aspect to finding a compatible partner. Eligon believes that providing a recent photo to show matches makes for a more comfortable selection and identification opportunity; should members decide to meet. It also helps to "break the ice" knowing what your prospective date will look like, rather than wondering if that stranger across the room is the person you've been conversing with online. Hide
What if I don't have an updated photo?

Our professional photographers are available for you to take a series of photos. Simply book an appointment at a specific location. Within 72 hours of your shoot, you'll then be able to upload your favourite photo selection to showcase on the Eligon.ca site.

Why can't I see pictures in the search results?

Eligon is tailored specifically for serious users who are seeking real relationships. Our website differs from other dating websites because the focus remains specifically on the member's profile rather than mere visual cues. In order to view a member's photos, it is essential to first review the associated profile.

Hide
I received an email telling me someone's interested in me, what does that mean?

When someone clicks "I'm interested" on the bottom of your profile, you will receive an anonymous email notification. We do this to encourage you to review each one of your compatibles and indicate wither you're interested in them.

When two people indicate that they're interested in one another, they'll receive a notification of a "match".

Hide
I received an email telling me that I haven't messaged my compatibles, what does that mean?

This is a notification that there are compatible users with whom you did not initiate contact yet.

Hide
I'm not receiving notification of incoming Eligon messages to my email, why?

If you are not receiving notifications via email, it could be for a number of reasons:

  1. Check your spam filters to make sure the email hasn't been misfiled.
  2. Your email host may have rejected the email.
  3. You might have accidentally mistyped your email address.
  4. You have turned off the email notifications on your account subscription preferences.

This encourages them to review their compatibles again and to indicate their interest.

What's the difference between being "compatible" and being a "match"?

A "match" is made when both users have clicked "interested" on each other's profile. The moment this happens, Eligon notifies both members. "Compatibles" are members who we feel are the most compatible to you based on our careful screening; according to our unique questionnaire that checks preferences, personality and similar values. This adds to the assurance of long term success with a particular compatible prospect.
