Artists and Members,
We want to let you know about an important change to our site. Due to new laws in the U.S. and other countries, we are now required to update how we verify entry to iWantClips. These changes help ensure underage users cannot access 18+ content on our platform.
Here's what you’ll see and need to do:
1.
Splash Page: If you're accessing the site from one of the regions below (determined by your IP address), you'll see a splash page where you can log in or verify your age.
a.
Guests and Fans: Click the “Verify My Age” button to continue.
b.
Artists and Studios: Log in on the left to access your Artist Dashboard and site.
2.
Age Verification: We use a trusted service, Yoti, to verify your age. Yoti is used by global brands such as OnlyFans, Meta (Instagram & Facebook), and Sony Playstation. After verifying your age, your information is permanently deleted and not stored anywhere. Upon successfully verifying, an Age Token (browser cookie) will be added to your browser, letting you skip the age verification next time you visit while the cookie stays in your browser
3.
Yoti ID app: Additionally, Yoti offers a free app for Apple and Android users. The application keeps your information safe and is used by over 14 million people. Your ID is encrypted and cannot be seen by Yoti in their Database because your phone device is the encryption key. For more details, visit
this link.
4.
Affected Countries and States:
a.
United States: Alabama, Arkansas, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina
b.
Other Countries: United Kingdom, France
Why Age Verification?
This update is not optional - it's mandated by laws such as Louisiana’s 2022 legislation and similar laws in other states and countries. These laws require websites with adult content to verify users' ages using third-party commercial systems, such as YOTI.
Privacy Assurance:
Your privacy is our priority. YOTI does not store or share your personal information after verifying your age.

We understand this change may be inconvenient, but it's necessary to comply with legal requirements. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
