This privacy policy has been created to help those who are concerned with how their ‘Personally Identifiable Information’ (PII) is being used online.
PII, as described in US privacy law and information security, is information that can be used on its own or with other information to identify, contact, or locate a single person, or to identify an individual in context.
Please read our privacy policy carefully to get a clear understanding of how we collect, use, protect or otherwise handle your PII in accordance with our website. We recently updated our Privacy Policy to clarify how we protect your personal information in keeping with the EU’s new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
We understand this all sounds high-tech. To make things easier to understand, is an explanation of why we need it and how we use it.
We use your data to create the best experience you can have online – and in the emails you receive from us.
We’ll protect your data by using the services of expert data security suppliers.
You decide what and how here from us by setting your perferences. You can opt-out any time you want. And with specific tags, we make sure you are not receiving emails from several automations at the same time, but only information most relevant to your needs and preferences.
If we don’t need it, we will delete it.
At The Porn Conversation, we care greatly about our community. We understand your data is precious and needs to be treated with the utmost respect and privacy. In this page, we are going to walk you through why and how we collect private data, how we use it, and your rights.

What do we collect?
Where and when you have signed-up, what email campaigns we have sent you, which ones you have opened, which ones you have clicked through, and where you are located when you open emails.
