    Looks good!,

    It would be better if the service didn't require data it didn't need like First name/ Last name / profile photo.

    These are not relevant to what the service is offering right?

      Yes, absolutely. I just realized that removing this information would even be beneficial. Actually, I'm removing it right now :)

    ”you authorize us to collect and use the following data: your first and last name, email address, phone number, and personal photos”

    Excuse me?

      Yes, we use standard firebase auth service and display the avatar and profile name. This is my profile https://unschooler.me/profile/lena-dorogenskaya-1578. Also, under the hood we are analyzing tags of videos that users liked. Without this, the prediction is impossible. Actually, I don’t know how photos appeared in the scope, it must be a mistake or default settings. We will fix it.

        It is not a mistake of application scope settings. The text is in your privacy policy, verbatim.
        • doraby 589 days ago
          I see. In this case, it only applies to the profile picture or avatar.

            You have to understand everything in this looks like a Russian play to harvest personal data, likely in an effort to create more believable puppet accounts on social media.

            Can you at least confirm this is the case and not try to play it off like it wasn’t?

              Interesting thought, thanks for sharing. But I disagree, it doesn't look like that.

              I can confirm that we are not Russian and use the Google firebase authentication service with default settings, like Canva, Figma, Miro and any other online tool on the Internet.

    How do I delete my account?
    • gZdJNc5C 589 days ago
      I understand the good intentions so please remove my first and last name and my personal picture from your website right now.

      It would be a wise idea to provide a function to edit or remove those informations before offering this to the public.

        Actually, this is a quite reasonable remark about the name, we should have elaborated on this part. We will change all names to anonymous.
      • doraby 589 days ago
        We will definitely add this possibility, thanks for the feedback
