WeFind - Genau was Du suchst!

Assegnate 1 su 5 stelle

Apparently this app attracts german speaking people. I cannot read the reviews so I don't have a "third party" opinion on the reliability of this app - so I won't install it of course.

Security looks like an issue to me (so I quickly desactivated this tool - which also means I could not test all the functionalities).

First of all, as the initial interface presents like a web form, where does my secure data go - is it sent to some server? I don't want my login/password information to be stored in some foreign database. How is this implemented?

I also read stuff about quite some things that are sent to some server, which will be used for statistics and so on. Is there a document that describes exactly what data is send (and also, how much KB that could be per request?)

*** ADDED REVIEW: July 27, 2008. ***

Okay, let me accept that no account information for my social networks is submitted to other servers: still, I somehow lost my trust in it (not forever, but for the time being I mean). I've been thinking why that happened, and I conclude that it is due to the fact that it was not clearly explained. The information that will be saved (login/pass for yoono) should have been clearly, totally separated from the other account information that this add-on does requests. This is more like a business requirement, but it is the major reason for my doubts.

My concerns are also connected with the fact that your policy does take it for self evident that bookmarks are send to your server(s). This is not really a security concern, it is a pure matter of trust in your policy: such a decision cannot be taken just 'on the spot'. In my opinion, Yoono fails, on such points, to strongly separate the service they offer, from the techniques they use and claim to be useful in providing this service.

It is by no means self evident that my 3600 bookmarks could be exported to another server just because I would not have read the policy very carefully. The add-on should not even include it: it should have been a link to the website where a very clear OPT-IN is presented, with good explanation. The fact that such an unwanted decision can happen so easily, disquiets me very much. Still, your response will be evaluated.

Kind regards.
