5. How do we secure your use of MYM?
In addition to moderating Content, MYM is secured by two main processes: age verification of Fans and certification of Creators, both of which require us to process your data.
- Age verification and Fan certification
To access adult content, a Fan must undergo a procedure to certify that he or she is of legal age and can therefore access all types of content.
MYM offers various solutions for this purpose:
- A Fan can use an "age estimation" solution, based on an analysis of their facial features. To do this, they take a selfie, which is processed by our partner (Yoti or any other solution that complies with French legislation) and which provides us with an estimate of the Fan's age to ensure that they are of legal age. The selfie and the data resulting from the analysis are immediately deleted once we have received the analysis result.
- A Fan can also use an age "verification" solution, which will validate that the Fan is indeed of legal age, by questioning a third-party certifier such as a telephone operator or a French administration (while respecting the Fan's anonymity).
If there is any doubt about the Fan's age, he or she is automatically blocked.
They can then go through a "manual" verification process by providing a selfie and proof of identity, which are then verified by one of our agents. This process certifies the fan's account. In this case, the identification data is kept for 6 years from the end of the contractual relationship (e.g. when the account is blocked or deleted).
When registering, Creators are asked to certify their account.
This involves verifying the Creator's identity by first uploading a certain number of Media to the Platform, which will be used to establish the Creator's identity and capacity.
Next, the Creator must undergo identity verification by providing Yoti with a piece of identification, which is then analyzed via integrated software.
Finally, the Creator is invited to present his or her face for real-time analysis, which, without facial identification, compares facial features with those appearing on the ID. This data is processed and stored by Yoti, and can only be accessed by MYM via a link provided. The data is kept for eight (8) years.
If the Creator's documents are rejected by Yoti, he/she can submit to a manual verification process managed directly by our customer relations department. The data provided in this process is then very exceptionally processed and hosted by MYM, without the intermediary of Yoti.
6. How can you manage the amount of email you receive?
When a User interacts with a Creator, the latter can send him Private Media proposals.
The Creator sends the proposals on his own initiative to a pool of Users corresponding to his Subscribers, his former Subscribers, and interested Users (those who have Liked or Saved a piece of media, made an attempt to subscribe or bookmarked the Creator).
When a Creator sends a solicitation to his Subscribers, the latter receive a notification in the Platform's messaging system as well as an email to the e-mail address they provided when registering.
To stop receiving or refine the emails you receive, you have two options:
- On the one hand, you can access the preferences centre available at the following address: https://mym.fans/app/settings/notifications-preferences. This interface allows you to specify in detail the notifications you wish to receive (for example, your Creators' lives or the publication of their latest posts).
- You can also click on the unsubscribe link located at the bottom of any email sent via the MYM Platform.
For your understanding :
As MYM has no control over the content or frequency of the proposals sent by the Creators, the latter are responsible for the use of their Users' data obtained during their exchanges.
This data, without being exhaustive, corresponds to the content of exchanges on the messaging system, the User's pseudonym or their purchase history.
In accordance with the GDPR, the Creator must respect the confidentiality of this data, ensure that appropriate security measures have been put in place and refrain, unless in exceptional circumstances, from transferring this data to third parties.
MYM strongly recommends that Creators who are unsure of their obligations under the GDPR take contact with a specialist advisor.
