SCARY PRIVACY TERMS AND ; GDPR-COMPILANT
I was excited to have a versioning of my company's product designs, BUT it's simply scary, its lack of GDPR compliance and also its user Privacy Policy based on Slovenian jurisdiction is very embarrassing, I can't recommend this agreement to ANYONE, your software does not deserve to be on Appsumo, this is a loyal community of small startups trying to give valuable quick feedback in exchange for a fair price LTD license, NOT TO COLLECT USER'S DATA, you still have time to change or disappear from here doing everyone a favor.
