Legal basis
Contact details are processed on the basis of your consent, given on the submission form, and our legitimate interest in running a directory people can trust. Abuse and security logs rest on legitimate interest.
Who else sees it
Our hosting provider stores the database on our behalf. Outgoing mail passes through our SMTP provider. Cloudflare Turnstile may be used for the anti-spam check on forms. We do not sell data, and we do not share submission contact details with other listed sites.
Reports and law enforcement
Reports of trafficking, exploitation or underage content may be passed to the relevant authorities together with the technical details attached to the report.
Your rights
You can ask for a copy of what we hold about you, ask for corrections, or ask us to delete it. If we delete the contact record we usually remove the listing with it, because we can no longer administer it. Write to editors@escortdirectoryworld.com.
Analytics
The application ships without third-party analytics. If an operator adds any, this page and the cookie policy must be updated accordingly.
