This privacy policy applies to any visitor, member or contributor to LocalSexHookup.com

The protection of your privacy being very important, we have adopted the following practices to safeguard the confidentiality of your personal information. We will notify all registered users via an onscreen message of any change to this Privacy Statement, unless you have opted-out of receiving email from us.

What information do you gather automatically from visitors?

We use your IP address (the series of numbers associated with your individual computer) to help us maintain LocalSexHookup and identify problems with our server. Your IP address does not disclose any personally revealing information about you.

We do use cookies to identify traffic that comes through advertising and to facilitate a more user friendly experience. Cookies are small pieces of information that a web site places on your computer’s hard drive so we know it’s you when you visit. This helps us to create a personalized experience for you when you visit LocalSexHookup. The use of cookies is a very common practice on the Internet. Cookies must be enabled in order to use LocalSexHookup.

What information will you ask me for?

When you register to use any LocalSexHookup service you will be asked for some general identifying information which will enable us to provide you with this individualized service. We gather contact information (like your email address), demographic information (like your city of residence or age). We may share some of this information for our own research purposes with our professional advisors or consultants and third party partners, however the information shared will be limited to non-personally identifying demographic information shared under cover of a confidentiality agreement.

You will be asked for some personal but non-identifying information to complete your profile. This information is not linked in any way to your personally identifiable information, for other members to see. Obviously, if you provide us with a photograph some of your information may become personally identifiable information.

How will this information be used and who has access to it?

If you choose to have them sent to you, we may use your contact information to send you valuable updates and timely notices of promotions and mailbox status reports. LocalSexHookup provides you with the opportunity to opt-in to receiving different types of communications from us at the point where we request registration information. You may modify this choice at any time by selecting “Options” from the member home page.

Your non-personally identifying demographic information is used to personalize your experience, allow other members to find you through a search, to compose your personal profile and to deliver targeted advertising and promotional offers to you from external companies that are of the highest relevance to your demographic profile. Other than your mail box, your contact information is never available to other members or organizations.

The personally identifiable information we collect from you is used for internal review and to improve the content and functionality of our web server or customize the layout of our pages for each individual member. The specific information we collect is not shared with other organizations and we will never release your personally identifiable information to an external organization without your prior consent except for the purposes of validating credit information and collecting debts, or unless we reasonably believe we are required to do so by operation of law.

How long do you keep the information I’ve given you?

We keep the information you have given us for as long as you are a member on LocalSexHookup. Certain personally identifiable information that you have supplied to us will always be retained however it will not be available to others. We keep this information to do matches on “regular account creators”; that is, those people who continually create and delete accounts to avoid paying for service. Individuals who engage in this practice will be actively pursued and will become part of our fraudulent accounts database. We do not store any personal information of persons in the EU.

Can I change the information I have already given you?

You can always verify or request the removal of the personally identifiable information we have collected and change your registration information by selecting “Options” from the main menu on LocalSexHookup.

Any such request may also be made by contacting LocalSexHookup by using the support page

Do you monitor online behavior?

Our members communicate with each other through instant messages and onsite mail. While we do not, as a rule, moderate or monitor members’ private exchanges, we reserve the right to do so if we suspect users of being under 18 or of using our service for the purpose of solicitation or any other violation of our User Agreement or Privacy Policy. Member submissions that appear on the public area of LocalSexHookup are moderated and, if necessary, we reserve the right to edit, delete, remove or not use any communication on a public area of LocalSexHookup.

Is there any situation in which my personal information may be divulged?

LocalSexHookup cooperates with law enforcement inquiries, as well as other third parties to enforce laws. We can (and you authorize us to) disclose any information about you to law enforcement or other government officials as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate, in connection with an investigation of fraud, harassment, intellectual property infringements, or other activity that is illegal or may expose us or you to legal liability.
