I tried to make my Privacy Policy actually readable

by Matthew

No one reads Privacy Policies. Worse, when you do read one, its impossibly ambiguous and hard to understand. This is especially true in tech.

So, I tried to make my products privacy policy as simple and understandable as possible. I included an overview / section and then went into detail, breaking it down into bite size parts whenever possible.

Please roast this, tear it apart, and tell me where I can still improve. Are things really as readable and understandable as I've set out to make them?
