1/ I’m thinking about ways to have trustable 3-parties audit us. Open for more ideas. What do you think?
3/ yes, unroll.me made the wrong calls. But for Jumbo we can’t even access your data, everything happens client-side. You could say that at some point the client will upload all your to our cloud, but that’s really not going to happen. Again, here, how to trust us? First, audits. Second, my reputation. Third, independent researchers would reverse engineering our app, and look at the networks call made. Open for more feedback
Our business model is the one of Dropbox. Pay (you or your employer) for more features.
1/ What do you mean confirm what I'm saying for the IP address exactly?
2/ I said we don't use any (mobile) SDKs from 3-parties analytics, but we do use their backend (Segment, Amplitude). We send the requests from our anonymous proxy directly to their servers.
I was worried that mobile SDKs would leak other data (iOS version, device size, ...) that I don't want to know about. And as a general rule we don't like to use SDK/code from 3parties for security reasons.
3/ We use analytics to track how many users are using the app, and how many users are using the cleaning features. This data does help us to make strategic decisions.
Jumbo helps in deleting old Google Search, and Alexa voice recordings. So it's beyond social media in that sense. Tomorrow we will support Tinder, and more.
What fingerprint? We don't send device OS, IP address, geolocation... Impossible to do fingerprint from only a device UUID that does not means anything.
No, because we've designed protection against collecting IP address, device type and OS. We don't use any SDK from Segment, Amplitude, or any third party analytics. Our iOS app only sends a device UUID, an event name (user:opened:app) and some event properties (not personal information). Someone should feel free to reverse-engineer our network requests to confirm what I'm saying.
Also, let's talk about IP address.
We have a CloudFlare worker that sits between our app and our analytics proxy (which role is to send data to Segment). And this worker from Cloudflare is a piece of code that removes the user ip address from the request made to our proxy, hosted on Heroku.
