We take your privacy and security very seriously. When you choose to use Hiveminder to keep track of what needs doing, you're entrusting us with something important to you. We're going to do everything we can to make sure that your information stays safe and private. The legalese below basically says that we can charge you for your Pro account if you buy one, that we do actually collect your personal information, that we'll be very careful with it and that if somebody tries to mess with us or you, we can do what we need to to stop them and make sure it doesn't happen again.

Our lawyers are somewhat old-school and believe strongly in the power of dense legalese to protect everybody involved. If anything on this page makes your spidey-sense tingle, drop us a line at info@hiveminder.com and we'll do whatever we can to improve the situation.
