Discretion is the deal. Compliance is the floor.

Adult-industry operators don't need a "we take privacy seriously" graphic. They need to know exactly what's signed, what's logged, what's reported, what's protected, and what's never shared. Below is the actual position — what Wave69 does on confidentiality, data protection, age verification, 2257 record-keeping, payment processor relationships, and the legal frameworks our clients run inside.

01 · Confidentiality

What we do (and don't do) with your name and your data.

Every project is covered by an NDA as standard. Not on request. Not on bigger projects only. Every engagement starts with a signed NDA before we receive any sensitive material — your URLs, your client data, your operational details.

Your name doesn’t appear in our portfolio without explicit written permission. When you see Luxury Sweets, BKK Escort Service, Yasmin of Kent, Minx Massage, or Noa Aliya credited in our work, every one of those clients has signed off on being shown. Most of our clients prefer to remain anonymous and we honour that without exception.

Internal team access is need-to-know. A specific account manager, a specific designer, a specific developer, a specific SEO. We don’t broadcast client details into all-hands meetings or shared knowledge bases.

No client data is used to pitch other clients. Your competitive intelligence stays inside your engagement. We don’t run “we worked on a similar agency in your city” pitches that turn out to be your data anonymised.

At end of engagement, we hand back and step away. Domain, files, hosting credentials, accounts, design source, content — all in your name from day one and remain yours. We retain only what we’re legally required to retain (invoicing records, broad project metadata) for the period required.

02 · Data protection

GDPR isn't an opt-in here. It's the floor.

GDPR-compliant by default on every build. Cookie consent, privacy notice, data subject rights, processor agreements where we handle your customer data, lawful-basis documentation. We don’t ship a site that doesn’t meet UK and EU GDPR baselines.

Data minimisation in every form we build. We collect what you actually need to do the work and nothing extra. Form fields are scoped, retention periods documented, deletion paths built in.

Customer-data segregation across hosting and CRM. Where we set up your hosting we ensure customer data lives in environments with proper access controls. Where you operate a CRM with client data (escort screening, deposit information, repeat-client lists), the architecture is built so this stays on your side and never reaches ours by default.

Subprocessor transparency. When we use third-party tools (analytics, email, hosting, gateways), we disclose which ones in writing as part of every engagement. You can request changes if any of them don’t fit your jurisdiction.

03 · Age verification

Properly implemented, not bolted on.

Every Wave69-built site has age verification implemented at the infrastructure layer, not as a third-party plugin. That means:

  • Server-side gating. The age-check happens before the page renders, not after. Bots, crawlers, and users hitting a page without prior consent see the age-gate, not the underlying content.
  • Set once per session, GDPR-compliant. No constant re-prompting. The acknowledgement is logged, dated, and retrievable.
  • Styled to match your brand. Not a stock pop-up. The age-gate looks intentional, premium, designed.
  • UK Online Safety Act ready. Where the law requires age verification (UK, several EU jurisdictions), we implement to the current standard and update as the rules evolve. Where additional verification (e.g. ID-based) is required, we integrate with adult-industry-friendly verification providers (Yoti, AgeVerify) rather than building from scratch.
04 · 18 U.S.C. § 2257 record-keeping

Where it applies, it's built in.

For clients producing or hosting visual depictions of sexually explicit conduct (escort agency profile photography, fansite creator content, adult production), 2257 record-keeping is a US federal requirement. Where this applies to your operation:

  • We design data models with 2257 record fields built in (model release tracking, ID verification status, custodian of records, content-asset metadata).
  • We provide guidance on records storage, retention, and access — but Wave69 is not your designated custodian of records. That’s a role you (or your legal counsel) hold.
  • We integrate with verification providers and content-management systems that handle 2257 properly out of the box where possible.

If your operation is UK-only with no US distribution, 2257 doesn’t apply to you. We’ll tell you that on the discovery call rather than scoping unnecessary infrastructure.

05 · Payment processor relationships

What we set up. What we don't.

We integrate adult-tolerant payment gateways into your build — CCBill, Paxum, Verotel, NETBilling, Epoch, Segpay, Stripe (where the use case is allowed). What this means in practice:

  • The technical integration is ours. API connections, webhook handling, subscription lifecycle, refund flows.
  • The merchant account is yours. You apply to the gateway, you sign their terms, you handle KYC, you own the relationship. We help you choose which gateway fits your business and prepare the technical side.
  • We don’t hold your processor logins, ever. We have the API keys and webhook secrets needed for the integration. We do not have access to your processor dashboard, your bank details, or your underwriting documents.
06 · Legal entity

Who you're contracting with. On record.

  • D-U-N-S® Number: 217271735

All client engagements are entered into by Logicsofts Solutions Ltd under the Wave69 trading name. Every project is covered by a signed NDA and governed by our Terms & Conditions.

07 · Regulatory posture

We work within the laws of the jurisdictions our clients operate in.

We don’t accept work that asks us to facilitate operations that are illegal in the client’s jurisdiction. Across the markets where we work — UK, USA, Australia, Europe, parts of Asia — the legal frameworks vary. The client is the publisher of their content and the operator of their business. We are the technology partner.

If your operation crosses jurisdictions (e.g. UK-based agency with US clients), we’ll help you build infrastructure that respects each jurisdiction’s requirements — or we’ll tell you the request isn’t something we can support.

Specifics on request.

If you need anything detailed about our position on a specific compliance area — DSA in the EU, the Online Safety Act in the UK, FOSTA-SESTA implications in the US, German JMStV requirements, or anything else — ask. We're not going to pretend complexity doesn't exist.
