Adult businesses often collect and process sensitive information.
Depending on the platform, this may include identity documents, age-verification data, biometric information, payment information, creator records, performer information, user preferences, sexual-content interests, device information, chat messages, uploads, images, videos, and communications with customer support.
Silverstein Legal helps adult businesses draft and review privacy policies, cookie disclosures, biometric privacy disclosures, age-verification vendor agreements, identity-verification procedures, data processing agreements, vendor agreements, data retention policies, creator privacy disclosures, and customer data practices.
The firm also helps clients evaluate whether their privacy documents accurately describe the company’s real-world practices. Adult businesses often use multiple vendors, including age-verification providers, payment processors, analytics providers, customer support tools, messaging platforms, AI services, fraud-prevention tools, identity-verification vendors, and hosting providers. The privacy policy and related contracts should accurately explain how information is collected, used, shared, retained, and protected.
Privacy compliance is especially important for adult businesses because the nature of the services can make user and creator data particularly sensitive. Silverstein Legal helps clients address these issues in a way that is clear to users, practical for the business, and consistent with applicable privacy obligations.
