Q: What is the LiveCam360 Trust Index?

A: The LiveCam360 Trust Index is a standardized 100-point safety score we assign to every adult live cam platform we review. It's scored across 5 weighted axes — payment security (/20), billing discretion (/20), account privacy (/20), platform reputation (/20), and scam prevention (/20). Each score is built from the platform's published documents, and the date of our last review is shown with the scores. We are not aware of another adult cam review site that publishes a comparable standardized trust score.

Q: How is the LiveCam360 Trust Index different from a star rating?

A: Star ratings on most cam review sites reflect entertainment value — model count, video quality, variety. The LiveCam360 Trust Index measures something different: how safe the platform is to use. It scores payment infrastructure, billing discretion, account privacy, platform reputation, and scam prevention. A site can have a 4.8/5 star entertainment rating and an 80/100 Trust Index — those are two different questions answered separately.

Q: What are the 5 Trust Index axes?

A: Payment Security (20 points) — PCI-DSS compliance, 3-D Secure support, refund policy clarity. Billing Discretion (20 points) — credit card descriptor doesn't reveal platform name, consistent across card networks, no surprise recurring charges. Account Privacy (20 points) — on-demand account deletion, ≤90-day post-deletion data retention, GDPR/CCPA compliance. Platform Reputation (20 points) — years operating, known corporate ownership and jurisdiction, no major scandals in last 24 months. Scam Prevention (20 points) — token withhold policy if model violates terms, active anti-bot/AI-stream detection, documented refund path for fraud claims.

Q: Which cam site has the highest LiveCam360 Trust Index score in 2026?

A: Chaturbate has the highest LiveCam360 Trust Index score in 2026 at 92/100. It scores highest because it has the longest mature operating history (since 2011), strong PCI-DSS payment infrastructure with 3-D Secure, GDPR-aligned account privacy with on-demand deletion, and active scam prevention via ToS-enforced token withholding. Stripchat (88), Jerkmate (85), and MyFreeCams (80) follow, with MyFreeCams scoring lower primarily because of older privacy infrastructure and less documented model-violation enforcement.

Q: How often is the LiveCam360 Trust Index updated?

A: There is no fixed schedule. The current scores reflect each platform's published documents as we last reviewed them on 2026-05-15, and that date is shown with the scores. When a platform is reviewed again, all 5 axes are re-checked against its billing and support pages, the account-deletion steps in its help pages and privacy policy, public reports of incidents affecting its reputation, and its published refund and dispute rules. We do not make test purchases or test transactions.

Q: Why doesn't this Trust Index include video quality or model count?

A: Video quality and model count are entertainment metrics, not trust metrics. They tell you how good the experience is, not how safe the platform is. We score those separately on our entertainment scale (used in the individual reviews) and keep the Trust Index focused on safety questions only — payment, billing, privacy, reputation, scam prevention. Mixing entertainment metrics into a trust score would dilute it. A site with 6,000 models and HD streams can still have a 60/100 Trust Index if their billing leaks or refund process is broken.
