You may already know but a site similar to this was hacked recently releasing the personal details of almost four million users onto the web!
Some of you may be also members of this site....
Google "channel 4 adult dating site hack" for details.

"Do you have to give personal details on it or is it usernames like this one?"
no it's similar the data hacked just gives info like gender, DOB, post code, sexuality email, if they are looking for extra marital affairs etc.., No bank details but enough there to start blackmailing or at the very least sending fishing viruses to the users email in the hopes of gaining more info.
This could happen with anysite tbh and does happen, that's why I use a seperate email for this. It's the risk you take when you use any social media based site. |

"Not much to worry about then if it is only an E-mail address were they could get in touch with you."
the hackers were aiming and trying too find credit card details, needless too say they found nothing |

There seems to have been lots of work and personal email addresses accessed. Never wise to use your normal or work emails for these sites. While credit card detail may have been secured, were private facial photos etc accessed. Last thing you want to see is your photo coming back to you in an email looking for money or else...
Be careful xx |
