Privacy Policy

Effective Worldwide - June 27 2025

1. Introduction

At Velvet22.com, privacy isn’t just a checkbox — it’s a core value.

This policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, how it’s stored, and how you can control it. We are fully compliant with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and operate entirely within the European Union.

We don’t sell your data, don’t track you, and never partner with shady ad networks. Ever.

Questions? Contact us anytime at: info@velvet22.com

2. Data We Collect

We only collect what’s essential to operate the platform — nothing more.

Optional: bio, voice notes, profile details

Payment info (Bitcoin wallet address) — We don't accept creditcards at this moment.

🔒 We never store credit card details.

Information we collect automatically:

Crypto Payments
If you pay with Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, your payment is currently processed by CoinPayments Inc., using licensed partners:

UAB Star Ventures, Lithuania

PaidInSatoshi Inc., Panama

These providers may process data like your wallet address, IP, and transaction details. We do not access your private wallet.

⚠️ Note: We're in the process of migrating to a self-hosted Bitcoin payment system, giving us full internal control. Until then, we rely on CoinPayments Inc.
