Touchstone Security and Privacy Policy

Ashley and I, as the two co-founders of Touchstone, have always had a policy that the user's privacy is of utmost importance to us. Touchstone's goal is to become one of those indispensible tools that you always download just after you do a clean install or set up your neighbors PC.

So with this in mind, we have always gone to great lengths to make sure that any features that impact personal privacy have an off-switch or explicitly inform the user of their rights and the intended behavior of the app.

We have also always had a Privacy Policy linked from inside the program. Today, however, I have updated it in anticipation of the next build's release.

You can find it here.

My favorite part is this:

Further, Touchstone's Attention Profile is stored in a human readable, documented format called 'IAM'. Your IAM file is located in your Touchstone installation folder in case you wish to see exactly what has been saved or use this file with supported 3rd-party sites and services.

I wonder if other sites and services can say the same?

This page will be linked from the download page, the alpha download page and inside Touchstone itself.

This is still in draft form so feel free to email me any questions or comments for inclusion.
