Privacy notice
Last updated 8 August 2026.
This explains what Premier Models stores about you, who can see it, and who else it reaches. It describes what the site actually does — not what a template says a site might do.
Premier Models is operated by Premier Models LLC, a Florida limited liability company, which is responsible for the information described here. "We" and "us" below mean Premier Models LLC.
What we store
Your account. Your username (which is public), your email address, a hash of your password — never the password itself — whether your email is confirmed, your two-factor state, hashes of your recovery codes, and when you last signed in and were last active. The last-active time is what puts you on the "who's online" list for chat.
Your profile. Whatever you choose to fill in: headline, bio, gender, date of birth, city, country and postal code; height, weight, measurements, shoe and dress size; hair, eyes, skin tone, ethnicity; experience level, professional status, whether you're open to work, and your rates; work types, skills, languages, your answers to the profile questions, and a résumé if you upload one.
We also store an approximate latitude and longitude derived from your postal code, so that near-me search can work. It comes from a public postal-code reference table — we do not track your device or ask for its location, and outside the US, UK and Canada a postal code usually only identifies a district rather than a street.
Your photos. The images themselves, plus their category, visibility, moderation status, like count and a popularity score. Uploads are converted to a standard format on arrival. Résumés are converted and re-rendered server-side before they are stored, which strips embedded scripts and macros.
Your activity. Profile views — recorded once per viewer-and-viewed pair with a count, first and last timestamps, and a flag for whether the view was anonymous — plus photo likes, saved searches, shortlisted members and saved photos.
Your messages. On-site mailbox messages (subject, body, read state) and real-time chat conversations. Message and chat bodies are stored as ordinary text in our database, not encrypted end-to-end. They are not visible to other members, but they are readable by anyone with database access, which in practice means site staff. Treat the mailbox as private-but-not-secret, and don't use it for anything you would not want an administrator to be able to read.
Your community activity. Forum threads and posts, casting calls and applications, contest entries and votes.
Moderation records. Reports you file or that are filed about your content — who reported what, the reason and any note — and blocks. When staff review a report we record which staff member acted, when, and an optional note.
Membership. Your tier, its expiry, whether it auto-renews, and identifiers for your PayPal subscription and transactions. We never see or store card details. Payment happens entirely on PayPal's own pages.
Who can see what
- Logged-out visitors see only a small curated selection on the home page. The member directory, profiles, Explore, the forum, castings and contests are all members-only.
- Other members see your profile, your public photos, your headline and city, your stats, and your forum and casting activity.
- Your email address is never shown to other members.
- Photos you file into a private portfolio book are visible only to you, and a members-only book is visible only to signed-in members.
- Profile views: some membership tiers can see a list of who viewed them. Higher tiers can browse anonymously — the visit still counts toward the other person's total, but the name is withheld from the list. Which tiers include which is on the membership page.
- Staff can see reported content, including content that has been hidden automatically from members.
Who else receives your data
| Who | What reaches them | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Microsoft Azure Communication Services | Your email address, and the subject and body of the message we send you | All email we send: sign-in codes, account claims, notifications |
| PayPal | Whatever you enter on PayPal's own pages, plus a subscription identifier we store | Membership payments |
| Cloudflare | DNS queries for our domain | Authoritative DNS. Traffic is not proxied through them |
That is the complete list. Your profile, photos and résumés are stored on our own servers rather than in third-party cloud storage. We do not use advertising networks, analytics trackers or social media pixels, and the fonts the site uses are served from this domain rather than a third party's — so simply loading a page does not tell anyone else that you were here.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with anyone beyond the three parties above except where we are legally required to.
Cookies
We set only the cookies the site needs to work: one to keep you signed in, one to protect forms against cross-site request forgery, and — if you ask us to remember your device — one that records that your two-factor check has already been passed. There are no advertising or analytics cookies, so there is nothing here to opt out of. Clearing them signs you out.
How we protect it
- Signing in needs your password and a one-time code emailed to you. Once you pass that, we can remember the device for 90 days.
- Passwords and recovery codes are hashed, never stored in a form we could read.
- The site is HTTPS-only and sends HSTS, so browsers refuse to connect insecurely.
- Photo URLs are signed and expire, and permission is re-checked on every request — so a link that leaks stops working as soon as the photo is taken down or made private.
- Uploaded résumés are re-rendered server-side, which removes embedded scripts and macros.
- No card data ever reaches us.
No system is perfectly secure, and we do not claim otherwise. If you find a security problem, please tell us at help@premiermodels.com.
How long we keep it
We do not currently run an automatic deletion schedule. Your content stays until you remove it or staff remove it.
Please read this part carefully, because it is the sort of thing other sites tend to gloss over. Deleting content or an account on this site is a "soft" delete. The item stops being visible and stops being served, but the underlying record is retained in our database rather than being erased. This is how we keep moderation history, casting applications and conversation threads coherent for the other people involved. If you want your data actually erased rather than hidden, ask us — see below — and we will do it by hand.
Asking us about your data
Email help@premiermodels.com from the address on your account and we will help you see what we hold about you, correct it, or delete it.
These requests are handled manually. There is no self-service export or erase button on the site today, and we would rather tell you that than imply a feature that does not exist. We aim to respond within 30 days. You can edit or delete most of your own content yourself at any time from your profile and settings.
Children
Premier Models is for adults. You must be at least 18 to join; we ask for a date of birth at registration and refuse anyone under 18. That check relies on what you tell us — we do not verify identity documents. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18, and if you believe a member is underage please report the profile or email us and we will act on it.
Changes to this notice
If we change this notice we will update the date at the top. If a change materially affects how we use your information, we will tell members directly rather than relying on you to re-read the page.
