Is this site secure and can I trust it?
Yes. When logging onto our site and when registering with personal information, we use very strong encryption to send data back and forth, from you to our servers.
Because of their reputation in the security services marketplace, we choose paypal and authorize.net to handle all the payments. We do not keep the information about credit cards of our paying members in our database.
Whenever we discover a member who is suspicious or has the potential to defraud other members, they are deleted immediately.
We're also aggressive about policing our site and blocking entire countries with known fraud, terrorist, and anti-peace initiatives. We also constantly check our site for identifying known scammers, and blocking them from the site.
We do everything physically possible to protect our member's privacy and to ensure a fun experience at our site. We will never distribute your personal information to any third parties for marketing, spam, or any other purpose. It's not our purpose to sell you anything but the services you ask for - directly.

What information on my profile is kept confidential?
We keep your personal identifiable information very confidential. Any information we collect (your real e-mail address, etc..) which could lead to someone else contacting you outside of this site and without your desire, is kept from the view of other members, partners, and third-parties.
Other online communities actually distribute your real e-mail address to other interested members. We think that is an open door for suspicious activity. We don't feel sharing that information is such a good idea.
Unless you deliberately give clues or intentionally supply information in your profile concerning your real identity (which could get you deleted from our site), there is no way for another member or the public community to know who you are.
We recommend also to register at the site with different username than your mailbox for security reason.

What are some tips to remember when creating my profile?
The number of replies you get from other members will depend greatly on the quality of your profile. Here are some helpful tips that will help you:
Upload a photograph: People like to see who they're writing to and as a result, profiles with photographs get up to ten times more clicks as profiles that don't have one. You can either upload a photo from a digital camera or a scanner. If you don't have access to a scanner, we can do if for you for free.
Think before you write: Feel free to write as much as you want in our essay portions of your profile. Tell other members about yourself, for instance: your likes and dislikes, things you enjoy doing, what line of work you're in, what your personality is like, even your hopes and dreams. The better your profile describes you, the more likely it is that others will read and respond to it. If you can't think of anything right away, you can always add more later. And don't forget to fill out the optional profile questions - these will also help other members get to know you even better.
