I am curious to learn more about your personal experience.
What I do know is this: The rules warn you about just this issue when signing up... Part of how the site generates such high-conversion traffic (aka fans who actually pay to play) is that SM does a lot of advertising.
The terms we agree to in order to go live on cam are clear that by signing up to use their site as a model, Streamate can use your likeness taken from while you are streaming for the purpose of generating more business toward the site.
Maybe someone else has a better answer!
I'm sorry you are upset :h:
