Fans
A Fan is someone who joins Prive Fans membership platform to support a Model’s membership content. As a Fan, once you decide to make any payment (for a subscription plan, tips, tokens, or product purchase from your favorite Models), you must provide your payment information to our payment processors. You can see the privacy policy for these payment processors on the Stripe website. Prive Fans does not receive your full card number. The payment processor provides us with a token that represents your account, your card’s expiration date, card type, and the last four digits of your card number. If you are required to provide your name and email address to the payment processor, then they also provide us with that information.

We collect and process information about the Models you support, the level at which you support them, what benefits you receive, and how often you support them. As a Fan, if you select a benefit tier with a physical benefit, then you will provide your shipping information, including your phone number, so the Model can ship you the benefit or provide updates related to the shipment.

Models
A Model is someone who creates and provides content for their Fans through the Prive Fans membership platform. To become a Model, you must create a page where you will share posts, videos, and/or offer virtual or physical products to your Fans. To receive payouts, you have to provide us with your bank account information. In order for us to confirm your identity and for payout purposes, you must provide:

  • First and Last Name
  • Address
  • Photo of your ID
  • Selfie with you holding your ID and a handwritten note
  • Country of Citizenship
  • Date of Birth
