Safety Is Not Optional
We built Velvet Circle on the premise that a premium community demands premium protections. Every policy exists to protect you.
Identity Verification
Every applicant undergoes a rigorous identity check before gaining access. We verify using government ID and facial recognition, ensuring no fake profiles ever enter the community.
Zero-Tolerance Policy
Any form of harassment, non-consensual sharing, or abusive behaviour results in immediate and permanent removal. No exceptions, no appeals for serious violations.
Data Sovereignty
Your data belongs to you. We store it securely within the EU under GDPR, never sell it to third parties, and allow full account deletion at any time.
Discreet Moderation
Our 24/7 moderation team handles reports with complete confidentiality. Your safety concerns are treated with the same discretion we apply to every aspect of the platform.
