What each feature collects

01 Opening the site

You do not have to give us anything to get started, and that is deliberate. The first time you load localflirtcam.com, a guest profile is created so you can start without filling in anything. To do that we store an account ID, a default display name, your device and browser type, language and an approximate region based on your IP address. A small piece of browser storage remembers the guest session so you are not a stranger to yourself on your next visit.

02 Video, voice and text matching

Matching is the core of the site, so it is where most of the technical information comes from. To find a match, the system needs to know that you are looking, which mode you chose and roughly where you are connecting from, so it can pick someone online and set up a stable connection. Your camera and microphone are only used after your browser asks and you agree, and you can withdraw that permission in your browser settings at any time. The match log records who was matched, the mode and the time it started and ended.

03 Your profile, follows and blocks

Your display name, photos, bio and any other details you add are stored and shown to people you meet. Nothing is required beyond what the guest profile already has; adding more is your choice and can be undone at any time by editing the profile. We keep the list of people you follow and who follows you, and the list of people you have blocked, so those choices stay in place.

04 Messages, and translating them

Messages you send from a profile or in text mode are stored so both of you can see the conversation, including when you come back to it later. Blocking someone stops new messages from them; the earlier conversation stays on your account unless you ask us to remove it. When automatic translation is on, the text is passed to a translation service and the result is shown alongside the original.

05 Clubs

Clubs are shared spaces, so more of what happens there is visible to other members. For each club we keep its name, logo, description, owner and member list, and the messages, photos and videos posted in it. If you apply to join, the application and the owner’s decision are stored. If you create a club, what you submit is kept for the review before it opens.

06 Watching clips and streams

Short clips and live streams are the browsing side of LocalFlirtCam, where you watch rather than talk one on one. When you watch clips or streams, we record what you watched so the feed can suggest more and count views. Comments you write in a stream and gifts you send are stored with your account and shown in the stream.

07 Your balance: free matches, coins, gifts sent

Money is the area where records matter most, for you and for us. Your account keeps a balance of free matches and coins, a history of coin purchases and spending, and Reward Center claims. Card and payment details are handled by the payment provider; we receive confirmation of the payment, the amount and the package, not your full card number. Those purchase records are what we check when you write to support about a charge, which is why they are kept even after the coins are spent.

08 When you report or write to support

When you report someone, the report, the accounts involved and related activity such as recent matches and messages between them may be reviewed to decide whether rules were broken. Support emails and attachments are kept so we can follow up and refer back to them if the same problem returns. If you report something by email rather than with the in-site button, include the other person’s display name so we can find the right account.

09 The parts you control

Most of what LocalFlirtCam knows about you is what you show and say, which makes you the most important privacy setting on the site. The easiest privacy setting is your own frame: keep your surname, address, workplace and anything that ties your face to where you live out of view and out of your profile. You can edit your profile at any time, block anyone, leave any club and ask us by email for a copy of your data or for deletion of your account.

If you stop using the site, your information does not disappear on its own straight away, because we cannot tell a break from a goodbye. A deletion request removes your profile and the information tied to it, apart from records we must keep, such as purchase records required by law.

Personal information is never sold, and starting a chat never requires an identity document. If you want to know exactly what is stored on your own account, the support address is the place to ask.
