Privacy policy
Guvnut does not store any personal data on its servers.
Logging in
For logging in, Guvnut uses different providers who let you log in to Guvnut without giving Guvnut your login information (technically, this is called federated identity authentication). When you log in with a provider, Guvnut generates an ID. The ID looks like a random number and isn't derived from any personal information. The ID is anonymous and cannot be deanonymised.
If you login with Amazon, the Amazon technical interface (their API) provides your name and email address. If you login with Facebook, the Facebook API provides your name and email address. If you login with Twitter, the Twitter API provides your Twitter handle. In each case, these are used by Guvnut software running on your device to show that you're logged in, and are not transmitted to or stored on Guvnut servers. Guvnut does not access any other data from your profile held by the authentication provider, even if their API would technically allow it.
Data collection and storage
By logging in you agree that Guvnut can store data that you provide in the course of using Guvnut. The applies to the pledge/promise progress information, which is public and can be updated by anyone once they've logged in. The data you provide is stored anonymously.
Guvnut may add functionality in the future where data you provide needs to be stored alongside the anonymous ID created when you first logged in, such as additional classification or opinion options, or website settings. This will allow Guvnut to show you the data you provided and let you update it.
Data you supply is stored in Guvnut's database which is hosted by a cloud computing company in Europe. Any data you provided is retained in Guvnut servers if you remove the permission for Guvnut to authenticate using Amazon, Facebook or Twitter.
