RedTube adds a data retention schedule for Models and Co-Performers
RedTube's terms now include a Data Retention Schedule for Models and Co-Performers. Government ID copies are deleted within 7 days of verification. Identity data is kept while the account is active plus one year after deletion, tax data is kept for 6 years, and bank details and private messages are kept only while the account is active. Retention can be extended for legal or enforcement reasons. The only other changes are minor rewording and the removal of a denial-of-service bullet and an introductory paragraph in the Prohibited Uses section.
Taken from you
- Retention periods may be extended as reasonably needed to enforce the terms or meet legal obligations

- Co-Performer data is kept for one year after all associated content is removed
- Tax and financial data is kept for 6 years
Won back
- Clear published retention periods for each category of Model and Co-Performer data
- Government ID copies are deleted within 7 days of verification
- Account or information deletion requests mark the account inactive and start the retention clock
