LOL: Workflowy privacy policy
I’ve been an almost happy workflowy’s user for about a year, and as I wrote earlier , I’m done with workflowy. Yesterday, I read their privacy policy more carefully, and, you know, it’s full of gems, check it out:
Under the 2. Data that we use, receive, collect, process, share or store and how we may use it, they have a few nice points:
2.1.2. We might use, receive, collect, process or store Personal Data on potential customers, customers, employees, service providers, users of the Services and the Website, etc.
2.1.3.8. AS MOST OF THE DATA IS PROVIDED BY THE USER OF THE SERVICES WITHOUT OUR KNOWLEDGE, PROVIDE OTHER CATEGORIES OF PERSONAL DATA, SPECIFICALLY “SENSITIVE” AND “SPECIAL CATEGORIES OF DATA” (AS DEFINED BY GDPR i.e. medical data, financial data, political opinions, religious data, childrens’ data etc ) IS UNDER THE USER’S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY AND OWN RISK AND WE RECOMMEND NOT PROVIDING THIS TYPE OF DATA.
LOL, What kind of data I supposed to keep safe in Workflowy then?
And another one:
2.1.4.3. Internal business: We may use your Personal Data for internal business purposes, including, without limitation, to help us improve our Services, Website content and functionality, to better understand our customers and users, to protect against, identify or address wrongdoing, to enforce our contracts and this Privacy Policy, to provide you with customer service and to generally manage and operate our business (e.g., pay salaries and make considerations).
WTF is “Internal business purposes”, huh?
And this is for all users - even for those who have paid money. Oh my god, they suck so hard.
I know that almost all online web services have similar privacy policies, I just wrote about one of them.
