Privacy & Cookies Policy
Last updated: November 7, 2026
1. About us
WatchPorn.now ("we", "us") is the website at watchporn.now, run by Freedom Gateway LLC. We are a directory of live webcam shows on several cam networks, and an affiliate of some of them. We do not host, record or stream any video: every live stream, thumbnail and chat you see is delivered by the network the room is on. This policy explains what we collect, why, who we share it with and the choices you have. It does not cover the cam networks; when you use a network's player, chat or website, its own privacy policy applies (links in section 5).
There are no accounts on WatchPorn.now: we never ask for your name, email address or password.
2. Adults only
This site is for adults aged 18 or older (or the age of majority where you live, if higher). We do not knowingly collect information from anyone younger.
3. Information we collect
- Server logs: when your browser requests a page, our servers record your IP address, the date and time, the page requested, the referring page, your browser's user agent and language, and an approximate location (country, region, city) and network provider looked up from your IP address.
- Traffic source: a short code for how you arrived (for example "google", "reddit" or a campaign tag from the link you followed), so we can tell which sources lead to sign-ups on the networks (see section 5). If you allow analytics we keep it in the
wp_srccookie; otherwise it is kept only while the page is open. - Cookies: see section 7.
- Our own analytics (everything from here to the end of this list) runs only after you accept analytics if you visit from the EU/EEA, the UK or Switzerland, and by default everywhere else.
- Device fingerprint and visitor ID: our analytics script calculates a fingerprint from your browser and device characteristics (such as browser and operating system version, screen, installed fonts, graphics and audio capabilities, language and time zone) and stores a random visitor ID in a cookie and in your browser's local storage, so we can recognize the same browser when it returns.
- Device and connection details: screen and window size, device memory and processor count, touch support, connection type and speed, battery level where the browser reports it, and how fast pages load.
- Activity on the site: the pages you view, how you arrived (referring page and campaign tags), clicks, how far you scroll, time on each page, form submissions (the names of the fields, not what you type) and errors.
- Session recordings: we record how each page is used (page layout, mouse movement, scrolling and clicks) so we can replay visits. Everything typed into form fields is masked in your browser before it is sent.
- IP address and location: these analytics records also store your IP address and the approximate location (country, region, city, postal code) and network provider looked up from it.
Information from the networks
If you follow one of our links and then sign up or buy tokens on a network, the network sends its affiliate a conversion report so the commission can be paid. For Chaturbate it contains the type of conversion, the commission, the tracking value of the link it came from (see section 5), Chaturbate's internal ID for the referred account, and that user's country, region, language and device type. It does not contain your name, username, password or payment details. These reports are received by the systems of our sister site watchgirls.now, which share our Chaturbate affiliate account, and are kept apart by the tracking value. Other networks' reports, once we list them, contain similar data.
4. How we use your information
- To show rooms suited to your region: networks hide some rooms in some places, so we ask for the list that applies to your IP address.
- To keep the site secure: rate limiting, blocking abuse and automated attacks, and investigating misuse (our legitimate interest in a safe service).
- To measure and improve the site through analytics, fingerprinting and session recordings, and to measure which traffic sources earn commissions (your consent in the EU/EEA, the UK and Switzerland, asked with a cookie banner; our legitimate interest elsewhere).
- To account for affiliate commissions and keep financial records (our legitimate interest and legal obligations).
- To comply with the law and respond to lawful requests.
We do not use your information for automated decisions that have legal or similarly significant effects on you.
5. How we share your information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with:
- The cam networks: to fetch the list of live rooms we pass your IP address to the network's room API (Chaturbate requires it). When a page shows a live player, chat or image from a network, your browser connects to that network directly, which lets it see your IP address and set its own cookies. Our links to a network, and its player on our pages, carry a short tracking value: which part of our site it is, your traffic source code and a pseudonymous visitor ID (the first 12 characters of our analytics visitor ID). The visitor ID is left out if you visit from the EU/EEA, the UK or Switzerland and have not accepted analytics, or have rejected it. Networks' privacy policies: BongaCams, Chaturbate.
- Service providers that host our servers, acting on our instructions.
- Authorities when the law requires it, or to protect the rights, property or safety of our users, the public or us.
- A successor if our business or this website is sold or transferred; they will be bound by this policy.
6. How long we keep it
- Server logs: up to 3 years, for security and fraud investigation.
- Our own analytics records (fingerprints, activity and session recordings): as long as we need them for the purposes above.
- Conversion reports: kept as financial records and not deleted.
7. Cookies
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; if you block the essential ones, the age confirmation will not work. Visitors from the EU/EEA, the UK and Switzerland, and visitors whose location we can't tell, see a banner asking whether to accept analytics, and until they accept they are treated like EU visitors everywhere in this policy; anyone can change that choice at any time with the "Cookie settings" link at the bottom of every page.
| Cookie | Set by | Purpose | Lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
age_ok | us | Remembers that you confirmed you are 18+ (essential) | 30 days |
wp_consent | us | Remembers whether you accepted or rejected analytics (essential) | 1 year |
wp_src | us | Remembers how you first arrived (traffic source code) for affiliate attribution; only if you allow analytics | 30 days |
wp_geo | us | Notes that your browser's time zone is outside Europe, so the consent banner and its defaults apply correctly (never set in Europe) | 30 days |
sa_vid (also in local storage) | us | Our analytics: recognizes a returning browser (EU/EEA, UK, Switzerland: only after you accept) | 2 years |
| various | the cam networks | Set by a network's embedded player, chat and images; see that network's policy | per network |
8. Your rights and choices
- Access, correct, export or delete your information, or object to or restrict how we use it: email [email protected]. We will reply within 30 days and may need to confirm the request comes from you (for example, the visitor ID shown by your browser).
- Analytics choice: accept or reject analytics, or change your earlier choice, with "Cookie settings". Rejecting stops our analytics script, deletes its visitor ID and the
wp_srccookie, and keeps the visitor ID out of our links to the networks. - EU, UK and Swiss residents also have the right to complain to their data protection authority.
- California and other US state residents have the right to know what we collect, to delete it, to correct it, and to opt out of its sale or sharing for targeted advertising. We do not sell personal information or share it for targeted advertising.
9. Security and storage
We use HTTPS everywhere. Our servers are in the United States; if you visit from another country, your information is transferred to and processed in the United States. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure.
10. Changes and contact
We may update this policy; we will change the "Last updated" date above and, for significant changes, show a notice on the site. Questions or requests: [email protected]. See also our Terms & Conditions.
