/Privacy Policy
At FilthyGorgeousThings.com we respect your personal privacy.
As a contributor, can I be anonymous?
Absolutely. We believe that being open about sexuality sometimes requires personal privacy, so if you prefer to be anonymous or use a pseudonym, we will absolutely respect that. If someone contacts us seeking your real identity, we will not disclose it, under any circumstances, unless you give us permission. This also applies to interviews. If we interview you and you want to have your identity protected, we will protect it. All advice questions submitted to the advice column are kept anonymous as a rule.
When does F/lthyGorgeousTh/ngs.com collect my personal information?
You may provide personal information to FilthyGorgeousThings.com in one of three ways: (1) by voluntarily sharing your e-mail address and subscribing to email newsletters (2) by voluntarily sharing personal information when you provide submissions or inquiries and (3) through tracking information collected as you navigate through our website.
