Startboard is private by design. There are no ads or tracking scripts. SSL is used site-wide. Cookies are used for authentication and session data only.
Information we collect
The data that is collected and stored by Startboard are all the things you would expect that are necessary to run the service.
- Email address: When you sign up, Feedbin asks for your email address and then sends you a password (which we recommend changing upon signup). Providing an email address will result in the best experience. Things like password resets and email receipts depend on a valid email address.
- Password: Your password is stored as a MD5 and PHPass hash. It’s an industry standard for storing passwords. It means that even in the event that someone did obtain the hash value, it would be very hard to derive your actual password from it.
- Billing information: If you choose to subscribe to the Pro version, your billing information is sent directly to Stripe, a leading online payments platform. Billing information is not stored by Startboard. You can read more about their privacy policy and security practices.
