You know whats funny? People will worry about these things then go post about their grows, talk about weed, send likes,......on facebook! Sadly. too many people just don't get it. I use a VPN that keeps no logs, and encrypted email. And I have for a number of years now. And remember, there are others besides the government spying on you, hackers and thieves, etc. The internet is a wonderful information filled place, its also as lawless as the old west!

The server is in the Netherlands and hosted by a company based there. This is important for Americans since the data hosted in the cloud or on servers from such companies as Microsoft, Apple, Google, etc. can be made available to the US government under Patriot Act laws since they are headquarted in the US. Even if the data is overseas and the owner of the data is not a US citizen.

That being said, you should never assume that the information here is 100% safe or that our hosting company would fight forever to keep LEO from gaining access. Your email and username should be something unique that is not shared with any of your real-life activities. Certainly not to Facebook or any other social media platforms. If you are using information that could be used to trace back to your identity and location, let me know so we can get it changed. As others have mentioned, using a proxy service will mask your IP, though currently our database holds no IPs since we are running through a CDM service.

That information should be a sticky
+ removing exif data
+ vpn Maybe,,

If people is confused about security, then there must be information about the subject, STICKY
Just my 2 cents
Then i think the security is covered for new and old members
