What if I don’t want people from my local area to see my profile and vids? You are always in control of who is allowed to access your content. You can block states, regions, provinces, or countries where you want your content hidden! 

On MV you can block up to 3 regions as well as 3 entire countries from being able to access your profile and they will also be prevented from viewing your MV Live room.

To add blocked regions/countries to your account, follow these steps:

- Go to your drop-down menu > Security Center
- Find "Content Location Block" and click <View>
- Select the regions and / or countries you wish to block
- Press <Save>

Two-Step Verification is a great option for adding extra security to your account to prevent anyone aside from yourself from logging in. At login, after entering your username and password, you will be asked for a 6-digit code which would be generated by a verification app on your mobile device.

Adding Two-Step Verification to your account

To activate this feature:

• Go to your drop-down menu  
• Security Center 
• Two-Step Verification 

You will be prompted to enter your password and from there the page will let you know which apps work with this service.

Download one of the recommended apps onto your mobile device and then scan the QR code on MV using the app. Once done, you will get a 6-digit code from the app to verify and activate the feature.

Next time you go to login, the extra step of using the verification app will be added, so you'll need to enter the 6-digit code generated by the app to access your account.

Removing Two-Step Verification from your account

If you no longer have access to the verification app and therefore cannot generate the 6-digit code to access your account, you'll need to have the feature removed from your account by MV Support. Please contact help@manyvids.com using the email attached to your account, and we'll let you know what we need in order to verify you as the account owner and have this feature removed.

We'd be very sad to see you leave the site but we totally respect your decision. In order to have your account deleted, please contact us at help@manyvids.com.

We'll need some information from you before we can close your account. Please be sure to let us know if you have any outstanding store item or custom vid orders and confirm that yourpayment method is set-up to make sure you receive your final pay.

You will always be welcome back if you ever wish to reactivate your account.

If you have unpaid earnings on your account above $20, your earnings will be sent out to you on the next payout date (1st and 16th of every month) to the payment method on file upon the deletion of your account.
