Zen is a desktop app so I'm happy to see that we satisfy your preference.

Those are great ideas. We'll be adjusting our website to make it more clear!

Yeah, thanks for being receptive to my feedback! FWIW I would not personally install your desktop app without further understanding of these other areas.

However, if the adjustments you describe could sufficiently allay my concerns and make the proper guarantees then I would be interested in such a product potentially.

As it stands I feel without said information there's just too much risk and uncertainty both as a private individual and employee to use this app.

Yeah, no.

* If I click on the web site, there is no privacy policy given. It just links back to the front page (Chrome)

* Anything with a subscription has got to send some data somewhere.

* All the language about "privacy-centric" with on actual background looks really sketchy.

Would you trust a small, unknown company to have access to your web cam? My experience is that few enough companies follow their own privacy policies.
