This Privacy Policy explains how RevealThis, operated by RevealThis Ltd ("we", "us", or "our"), collects, uses, and protects your personal data. Our platform enables creators to monetize various forms of digital content, including adult entertainment, which requires us to handle personal data with the utmost care and in compliance with strict legal standards. We act as a data controller under UK data protection law.

7. Data Retention
We retain your personal data only for as long as it is necessary. Account data is kept for the duration your account is active. For legal and compliance reasons, we are required to retain creator verification records, transaction data, and associated communications for a minimum of 6 years after the account is closed.
