MODERATORS
This is real bad. I'm a christian (albeit a very unorthodox one), and this goes against everything Christians are supposed to follow according to the bible. This can only be construed as church authoritarianism. Maybe this is why I'm looked down upon by most "Christians" out there, but I could not care less. If a christian says or does anything that does not align with LOVE EVERYONE,that's not a christian, but a "faith merchant". Their "privacy policy" is tailored to make it seem like they are doing God's work, when reading it with the intent to understand clearly displays the intention to gather data on you and everyone around you. And I'm sorry, but anyone that does this is guilty of wanting data to sell until proven otherwise, no exceptions.
- Who Has Access to Your Data
"Your password is not accessible by or shared with anybody. Not even we can access it. It is stored in an inaccessible encrypted format."
So, ONLY the password is encrypted, everything else is stored as clearly as a traffic sign. Noted.
"None of the information entered by you is shared with anybody unless you specifically give us permission to do so by opting in to affiliate your Light role with one or more of our partner organizations; by opting in to have your contact information available to other Light roles in your neighborhood; or by creating an administrator role in a partner organization."
Where have we seen this before? Ah, right, in EVERY parivacy policy on every single company known to sell our data for profit without caring about anyone or anything except getting more money.
Funny thing is, there's no mention anywhere on how they are getting the data on what they call the "blessees". Care to take a wild guess on how that's done?
I am genuinely sorry that this is happening, and blown away by how disgusting this is. No wonder most people don't want anything to do with us, Christianity has become everything Jesus spoke against.
FYI: If you hear someone talking about encrypting passwords (instead of hashing); big red flag that they don't know what they're doing.
I didn't think about it, but you're absolutely right. Thanks for the correction.
Not a dig at you btw, but at the people trying to convince us they care about security.
Oh, no, I didn't take it as a dig directed at me. I took it as good information for me to consider moving forward. Thank you.
