Privacy Policy

Hosting and Security

Notifier runs on a virtual private server (VPS) hosted by Hetzner, located in Germany. Only I (the owner) have access to this server. All data is regularly backed up to an off-site location.

All website traffic is encrypted and served via SSL (HTTPS).

Third-Party Services

The following third-party services are used:

  • GoatCounter (on every page): privacy-focused analytics to understand general usage trends. Data is used to improve the service.
  • Sentry (on every page): tracks JavaScript errors to help fix bugs and improve stability.
  • CommentBox (on pricing and blog post pages): enables visitor comments.
  • Braintree (on the pricing page): renders the secure payment widget.

Data Sharing

No user data (e.g. email addresses, notification content) is shared with third parties, except as required for payment processing or technical functionality.

Cookies

Notifier uses cookies solely to manage user sessions. No tracking or advertising cookies are used.

Email-to-RSS Feature

If you use the email-to-RSS feature, the contents of forwarded emails are stored and processed only to generate your personal RSS feed. You are responsible for ensuring that forwarding such content does not violate any third-party terms or confidentiality agreements.

Please do not use Notifier to transmit sensitive personal information (such as passwords, health records, or financial data).

Data Breach Notification

In the event of a data breach, you will be promptly informed with details of what happened, what data may have been affected, and what steps are being taken to prevent recurrence.
