LOS ANGELES — The Free Speech Coalition (FSC) announced today that it has granted members exclusive access to the PrivateAV age verification solution.
The announcement follows:
A private, compliant, and affordable age verification service that financially supports FSC's advocacy work.
Starting today, Free Speech Coalition membership has a new benefit: access to PrivateAV, a privacy-preserving, cost-effective age verification solution exclusively for FSC members.
PrivateAV offers two verification methods: AI-based age estimation and full document verification with biometric match. Designed to protect user privacy, no personal data is ever stored, logged, or written to disk. All inputs are erased the moment verification completes, and site operators can demonstrate to their audiences that their privacy is taken seriously.
Pricing designed for all members, not just enterprise budgets
PrivateAV is being offered as an additional benefit of FSC membership. Plans start at $30 per month for up to 1,000 verifications – a pricing tier designed to make compliance accessible to smaller and independent sites that have historically been priced out of commercial age verification options. Higher-volume tiers are available for larger platforms."Age verification is now a fact of life for the adult industry," said Alison Boden, Executive Director of the Free Speech Coalition. "FSC's job is to help our members comply without breaking the bank, compromising their users' privacy, or lining the pockets of the people trying to legislate us out of existence. PrivateAV is our answer to all three."
Members interested in testing PrivateAV.com may run 100 test verifications in sandbox mode before upgrading to a paid plan.
Built by the industry, for the industry
PrivateAV was developed by adult industry veterans who understand the compliance pressures, privacy concerns, and technical realities that adult platforms face. For too long, the only available age verification solutions have been expensive, invasive, and difficult to deploy – products built by companies with little understanding of or sympathy for the adult industry's unique needs.Worse, some of the companies behind those solutions have actively funded the legislative campaigns that produced the wave of state age verification mandates now sweeping the world.
PrivateAV changes that equation. A portion of every subscription goes directly to FSC to support its legal defense, legislative advocacy, and policy work on behalf of the industry.
"We built PrivateAV because we knew the industry deserved something better," said Ákos Hantos of VerityGuard, the technology partner behind the solution. "This isn't a product that was retrofitted for adult platforms. It was designed from the ground up with their needs in mind – fast, private, and built to hold up under real regulatory scrutiny."
In an era when users are increasingly wary of how their data is handled, that trust matters. PrivateAV gives operators a way to comply with age verification requirements while actually strengthening – rather than eroding – their relationship with their audience.
In addition to offering methods compliant with US state laws, the tool is fully aligned with major global age verification requirements, including Ofcom (UK), Arcom (France), KJM (Germany), and Agcom (Italy).
