Privacy Policy

Not only do we respect your privacy, we protect your privacy!

How Chathostess Protects Your Privacy:

• We NEVER sell, rent or share your personal information or email address with any other party.
• We may send you occasional promotional emails, and every email will contain an unsubscribe option.
• Your personal information is never stored on Chathostess's server, so it cannot be stolen by hackers

Below are the complete details of our privacy policy:

Chathostess is occasionally contacted by third parties who, for marketing purposes, want to purchase our mailing list and other sensitive customer information derived from our database. Although there is no law forbidding Chathostess from selling such information, the trading of which is an extremely lucrative business , Chathostess is serious in its commitment to protecting your personal privacy. We have never sold such personal information about our customers to outside parties -- not even once -- and we don't intend to.

As a general rule, Chathostess collects only three kinds of information about you: (1) Information that you voluntarily provide to us or authorize, such as your name, address, credit-card and other account information as submitted on the Chathostess Membership Submission Form, (2) "Log information" about the areas of Chathostess that you visit, that are accessible from the general internet environment, and (3) private correspondence, such as the contents of e-mail messages you exchange with Chathostess.

Log information bears greater explanation: Log information typically consists of such things as your browser type (i.e., Netscape or MSIE), your IP address (i.e., 102.316.52.11), the domain name from which you are visiting Chathostess(i.e., "aol.com"), and which pages of Chathostess that you visit. Like all internet services, we analyze our log files to better understand which areas of Chathostess are more popular than others. And like most other large-scale internet properties, we also use this information to "customize" the Chathostess experience to match your tastes. For example, if you first visit Chathostess by searching an internet portal for a search term such as "voyeur" and clicking upon an Chathostess banner or link, Chathostess may set a "cookie" on your computer which records the term as a "search preference"  Later, as you navigate through Chathostess, you will likely observe that the content you see on Chathostess tends to be tailored to match your recorded search preference. Note: such cookies are "secure" in that they cannot be read by other internet companies, but can only be read by the web site which placed the cookie.

Chathostess also uses your recorded "search preference" information to better target and allocate marketing expenditures. For example, if Chathostessl earns that, in aggregate, individuals who search portals for terms such as "voyeur" are more likely to purchase goods and services from Chathostess than individuals who search for terms such as "livecams", Chathostess may allocate greater portions of its marketing budget to targeting the former group, and a smaller portion of its budget to target the latter group. By optimizing marketing strategies in this manner, Chathostess has more disposable capital that can be deployed toward development efforts which improve the Chathostess platform and provide a richer customer experience for all.

Speaking of cookies, another kind of cookie that Chathostess sets is an "identification cookie". This cookie is written whenever you successfully use your login and password to access a restricted area of Chathostess ; the identification cookie is available only to individuals who have already been verified as adults, via Chathostess's verification procedures. When Chathostess's servers observe this identification cookie on your computer, they recognize you and therefore might deliver unmodified content as opposed to modified content - in effect, another form of customized content tailored to suit your indicated preferences.

Another question that should concern you: "Does Chathostess outsource to other companies any privacy-sensitive functions such as management of its email newsletter system, web hosting, or its e-commerce platform?" Because Chathostess is committed to safeguarding the integrity of your personal information, we have elected to not use such services, despite the fact that they are reasonably-priced and simplify the management task of running a large and complex website operation.
