You can read the full privacy policy here.

What things are disclosed about me to other users?
Your email address is not disclosed. Your birth date and last name are also not disclosed unless you explicitly permit it - and then it's only disclosed to your friends. However, your first name is always disclosed as is your age.

Other information that you post, such as photos, etc. are disclosed.

Also, when you request to add someone as a friend, they are send your full name and email address as a way of helping them recognize you. Since they're your friend, this should not be something you're concerned about. If you are, then you should not add them as a friend.

Your profile is also searched by web crawlers such a GoogleBot, though you have an option to hide your profile from web crawlers if you prefer.

What kind stuff can I put in my profile?
Your profile should not contain sexually explicit or overly suggestive material. Such content may be deleted from your account without notice.

Your profile has to be for you and must use your real name. It cannot be for a business or organization. If you're joining to put a free ad on the site, that would be a no no.

You should also not impersonate anyone - living, dead or fictional. Such profiles may be deleted without notice.

A more extensive list of requirements is provided in Terms of Service.

What kind of photos can I post?
You should only post photos of yourself or you with friends. And you should not post photos that are copyrighted or of some famous person that isn't you. You also should not post photos that are excessively revealing, sexualized or obscene.

Photos that violate the guidelines will be deleted from your account and photo upload privileges may be suspended for an amount to time that increases with each infraction. The suspension is 1 day after the second violation and increases to one year after the 9th violation.

A more extensive list of requirements is provided in Terms of Service.

Are there other requirements for me to be a member?
Tons of 'em...j/k. Basically we want you to be polite, repectful, reasonable and adult. Hmmm... that almost sounds like the boy scout code. But a fuller description can be obtained here.

Anything else?
Yes, people under 18 may not use Connexion. There are other sites and organizations that are geared to younger people. Links to some of those sites and organizations can be found here.
