GENERAL POSTING

1. Do not use an identifiable avatar. This includes faces, tattoos, fursuits (especially if they are not yours)

2. Review every picture, every video you post multiple times. Look for identifiable things; houses, barns, unique saddles, collars with or without tags, pictures, furniture, mail, packages, collectibles, mirrors or anything can reflect your face or body, absolutely anything that can be used as identification.

3. If you have a unique pet, be very, very careful. If you have posted normal pictures anywhere, like facebook, twitter, ect., do not post him here or anywhere zoo themed. Even if you delete the social media pics, it's too late. ( Familiarize yourself with Reverse Image Search, what it is, and how it can be used against you )

4. Be careful with the information you post. Anyone with enough patience can piece together little things through pictures, descriptions, email addresses, anything to pinpoint who you are.

5. Use an email that is not attached to anything. Do not use real name, and do not setup a password recovery phone number or alternate email. Make yourself an absolute stand alone free email account and do not use it for anything else but zoo. Not even furry or fursuit related sites or accounts.




ONLINE SECURITY

1. Public IP addresses can be used to track your general location. We Recommend a VPN service like Nord VPN to mask your IP. ALWAYS USE VPN!

2. Use Strong Passwords on your ZooVille Account.

3. Whatsapp and Discord are NOT recommended services for private off-site chat. They have been known to be leaked and report info on users.

4. Telegram and Signal are considered safe in of themselves, however always used a VPN when logging onto telegram and also be wary of phishing for your IP address with external HTML links. This has been used before to catch users NOT using VPN on telegram or Signal.

5. Public telegram links to group chats are allowed here on zooville if you own a group (see site rules), however be aware that bestiality is illegal in many countries. Law enforcement can phish users out into private chats is a common way to trace and doxx your identity. TRUST and RESPONSIBILITY is on your hands for whomever private chats you join.

Can you help to use a VPN.
 
For security I'm running Linux in a VM (Encrypted) and use NordVPN in the Guest machine. I advise people to be wary of Windows, especially if you use the porn section of this site.
 
Could you elaborate a bit more on why we should be wary of Windows? Like are there specific things to watch out for or do or not do?

Tons. :D
Their AI tool that takes screenshots every 5 seconds for example.
Their telemetry sending usage information to Microsoft all the time.
OneDrive integration if you are using it.
Now to be honest google has similar issues with Android and Apple too.
The system is not yours, it is used to get information about you. And that can be used against you.
But I do not know how often it is used.

If you want to use windows, focus on how to keep your files private. You can find gigabytes of videos on that on youtube.
But if you have to ask like this, you are not at admin level knowledge and all of it will be pretty confusing.

Until what I know it showd be ok unless you are a very important person, because none know if the VPN staff is really taking good care of your data. Or if the staff is going to keep your data safe under government/justice pressure. You are probably right, they are probably only selling your data for ads company

I’m just a regular person in the PNW so I think I’m okay. I can’t afford a VPN and I’ve been accessing this site without one for years so it’s probably fine
 
Best VPN in my opinion is Proton - they also offer a great Mail-Service, too!

Create an Account, get yourself a yearly subscription and leave it on at any time - never had any Connection-Problems nor am I loosing much bandwidth by doing it.
 
This is mainly related to people in Australia, but applies to many jurisdictions. DO NOT go near the porn section of this site. You can literally go to jail for possessing this stuff. Is it worth it? I don't think so. In many ways, it's more dangerous than the real thing. Be careful!

How is anyone going to prove you did not touch the porn section if you have an account here?

Well, it all depends on what's on your PC, in the end. If you have this stuff on your PC, you are screwed. There was an arrest a few days ago of a guy in possession of this stuff. He also had CP but it was mentioned he had bestiality material too. Talking about it is fine. But porn is not safe.
