Sorry to disappoint you, but I did not. I was just quick to react and reply ;-)

My company is actually in Europe, so I do comply with the GDPR.

Maybe someday, but it's a lot of work and not much of a return.

You're welcome. Yeah, things got ugly.

Right! But I'm afraid I can't fix that. When I receive an email, I associate it with the address that GMail reports to me,, and when you sign in as [email protected], the email address differs (as you might already guess). I know that I can safely remove +something but I can't be sure that it will work the same for every email service and ensure security. Please use [email protected], I won't send you anything unless you explicitly ask for it.

Sorry, there are no settings for that yet. Please mail me to [email protected], and I'll do it for you.

Thank you!

My goal wasn't to create a 100% secure diary. If you need that, you probably should not store your data in the cloud. That's unlikely that I will ever try to make it happen. But even if I would, there're so many ways to screw it over anyway, so I won't ever try to make this promise.

However, I will consider open-sourcing it.

Also see my comment where I addressed the privacy issue: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22045670

I don't know that, but I would assume that just someone with @google.com or @uber.com signed up at the service ;-)

> But once the data leaves the browser there is no way to know, wouldn't you consider to partner with Gmail(or others) and appear as an addon to an already trusted company in order to start off the business ?

Also, I understand the concern and that Paul most likely will not trust their secrets to anyone. The problem is that's not a business, but a beautiful hobby project that I honestly love, so it's unlikely that I will ever spend time rewriting it and then paying Google $15K (https://www.gmass.co/blog/google-oauth-verification-security...) so they could vet me.

Ouch! Firebase generates links for me but I'll take a look at what I can do.

As I'm based in the EU, I can't store personal data of children without the consent of a parent. So to make sure I added the form.

I stored it as sanitized HTML along with the original HTML so I can resanitize it after I improve the parser or find an error in it.

Funnily enough, I also used and loved it, and it was the inspiration to build Diary Email.

> But I can probably set that up as a cron job

Almost every app could be replaced with email, a cron job or a spreadsheet ;-)

I also did. The memory of it inspired me to build Diary Email.

Haha, I actually figured it out. You just ship plant-based milk lol.

Thank you for your feedback and I understand your concern, but I'm not sure how to pull it off. I don't have a fancy lawyer that could customize such thing to me, nor I have a budget for it.

Here're some facts that could help you to find peace of mind. First of all, I operate in the EU, so I can't simply sell your data. Also, it costs me virtually $0 to maintain the service (thanks to Firebase and Mailgun), so I won't be forced to sell out to keep it afloat. At last but not least I use it myself with my close friends so we're in the same boat.

It works well too! Too bad is not easy to fetch history.

Sorry to disappoint you, but I did not. I built it some time ago, but I was quick to reply, so there's a chance that Paul tried the service. I'm such a fanboy, haha.

Thanks! What browser do you use?
