Privacy policies are often written like punishment. This one is still legal, but it should at least be readable. Here's how Retly handles account data, listing data, connected platforms, and the operational data needed to keep the service running.
Plain-English version: We collect the information needed to run your account, generate content, support connected services like Facebook and Stripe, and diagnose problems. We do not sell your personal information.

4. Data Storage & Security
Your data is stored on secure servers in the United States. We use industry-standard security measures including encrypted passwords (scrypt hashing with unique salts), signed cookies, and HTTPS encryption. However, no system is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
