NATURAL QUESTIONS
Everything one might ask
before stepping through the door.
Clear answers, without ever revealing what belongs to the intimacy of the Circle.
The spirit of the Circle
Why is Connivence different from other libertine sites?
Libertic, Wyylde or Belswing are platforms open to a very broad community. Connivence makes a different choice: that of a human-scale private club, understated, chic and attentive, where confidentiality and the quality of relationships come before numbers. Registration is never automatic: every application is examined humanly by Oli&Mu to preserve a circle of discreet, respectful, sincere people capable of fine conversation.
Who is Connivence for?
For couples where both partners are at least 30, and for single people personally chosen by Oli&Mu, seeking a chosen, elegant and respectful libertinism. Connivence welcomes first and foremost united couples in full agreement about their approach, as well as a few single people personally chosen as Courtised ones. The expected quality is neither financial, nor social, nor physical: it is recognised in discretion, good manners, listening, sincerity, curiosity and absolute respect for consent.
What do we mean by “couple”?
We impose no legal status, no orientation and no single model. A couple here brings together two people truly united, complicit and engaged in a shared approach. Libertinism must be a breathing space chosen together, never an attempt to repair a relationship in crisis or a decision imposed by one partner. The personal agreement of both people is essential.
Admission and discovery
How does one become a member?
One does not submit a public application. The journey begins with an invitation or an individual recommendation. The invited person may then present their application in a private space. Oli&Mu examine it humanly, then exchange with both members of the couple before any decision. An invitation allows one to apply; it never guarantees admission.
How does the founding phase unfold?
Connivence is currently gathering its first Ambassadors: a few couples approached and personally invited by Oli&Mu because their sensibility and way of being seem close to the spirit of the Circle. Their access is offered for six months, with no commitment, no obligation to recommend, and no automatic payment.
What is an Ambassador?
An Ambassador is a member-couple particularly close to the spirit of Connivence. Recognised for their discretion, good manners and the quality of their relationships, they may personally recommend a few couples they trust. They never consult those candidacies, do not decide on their admission and do not know the reasons: those responsibilities remain exclusively Oli&Mu's.
What is a Courtised one?
A Courtised one is a single person chosen personally by Oli&Mu for their behaviour, discretion, relational elegance and respect for couples. This person follows the same verification journey and the same rules as other members. They may never solicit a couple on their own initiative: a conversation can only begin if the couple chooses to contact them.
Confidentiality
Does our true identity appear on our Portrait?
No. Each couple uses a mandatory public pseudonym. Real identities are kept separate from the Portrait and accessible only to Oli&Mu for the necessary verifications. The pseudonym and presentation must reveal neither surname, nor address, nor precisely identifiable profession, nor means of contact.
Who can see my profile and my information?
No visitor of the public showcase can see your profile. In the private space, your Portrait is reserved for admitted, active and authorised members of the Circle. Courtised ones do not access it automatically: these people must wait until a couple chooses to open the door for them and can never trigger that first access themselves. Private albums and more personal content always require a separate authorisation, granted individually and revocable at any time. Being an Ambassador grants no additional right of oversight.
How is member confidentiality protected?
The public showcase shows no real member, no online presence, no conversation and no private album. Within the Circle, everyone controls their information and access to their private photographs. Sensitive data is handled directly by Oli&Mu and is not entrusted to moderators, Ambassadors or Courtised ones.
What technical protections secure the site?
Connivence has chosen EuroDNS Web Security Pro protection: encrypted HTTPS connection, DDoS protection, application firewall, security monitoring, regular scans against malware and vulnerabilities, and protected backups. EuroDNS is ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified for its own information security management system. This certification concerns our host; it does not constitute an independent certification of Connivence. The seal shown in the footer indicates the technical arrangement subscribed, never a guarantee of zero risk.
How will future payments be secured?
When activated, payments will be processed securely via PayPal. Connivence will not store bank card numbers. After an explicit paid subscription, membership will renew automatically and may be cancelled at any time without charge. The free trial will never become paid without an express choice. The provider's security complements the site's protections, without constituting a promise of zero risk. No payment is requested during the founding phase.
Genuinely human management
How is Connivence managed?
Connivence is imagined, crafted and administered in the province of Luxembourg, Belgium, by Olivier and Muriel. They are the founders, webmasters and guardians of the Circle's spirit. Admissions and sensitive decisions are examined by them, never abandoned to automatic validation or to unknown people at a distance.
Why is Connivence carried by VitaLink ASBL?
VitaLink ASBL exists to develop projects grounded in personal accompaniment, listening and the quality of human relationships. Its approach gives particular importance to respect for intimacy, acceptance of differences, trust, autonomy and the creation of fairer bonds. Connivence fits within this attention to the human: it constitutes neither a medical service nor a therapy, but a private, responsible and accompanied relational framework. The Connivence activity will be expressly integrated into VitaLink's statutes and this change must be officially published before the activation of paid memberships. Like any Belgian ASBL, VitaLink may generate a surplus, but it cannot be distributed to its members or directors. It must remain dedicated to its disinterested purpose. When its resources and statutes allow, VitaLink may in particular support associations pursuing similar aims, especially in the fields of human accompaniment, aid to childhood and the inclusion of differences.
Is it easy to reach Oli&Mu?
Yes. Connivence wishes to remain a close and human circle. Olivier and Muriel are directly reachable for any question the site or this FAQ does not answer, as well as to support a member when a situation calls for listening, discretion or advice.
Can Oli&Mu help us create our Portrait?
Yes. They can advise on the choice and presentation of photographs, help structure or write the texts and make the Portrait pleasant to discover without distorting the couple's personality. This accompaniment seeks sincerity and richness of narrative, never uniformity.
A QUESTION LEFT UNANSWERED?
Let us simply talk about it.
Oli&Mu remain personally available, with the discretion you are entitled to expect.
