Our Legal Protection Process for Creators

1. Legal Setup & Clarity

We help you understand OnlyFans terms of service, what content is allowed or not, and what rules apply in your country.

We draft transparent contracts with no abusive terms. You can leave anytime, no penalties or obligations. We believe in fair partnerships — not traps.

2. Identity, Copyright & Privacy Protection

We protect your real identity, name, and content through DMCA takedowns, copyright assistance, and GDPR-compliant workflows. Whether you’re a new model or already known, your safety is our priority.

3. Compliance & Reporting

We help you navigate taxes smartly: you only pay taxes on your share of the income, not on the full gross. 

We make sure you stay 100% legal — including help with DAC7 (EU tax directive) if you’re based in Europe, and platform-friendly compliance if you work in the US or other regions.

Nope — that’s our job. We help you stay compliant with data privacy laws (like GDPR) and EU DAC7 tax regulations, so you can focus on creating.

We take care of that. Our anti-piracy team handles all takedowns and copyright strikes — no extra charge.
