I created a post yesterday mentioning situation between Ente and other service that started some time ago. I am specifically not using the name of this other service because for some reason my yesterday’s post has been removed and marked as “Spam” since it “feels it is an advertisement, something that is overly promotional in nature instead of being useful or relevant to the topic as expected”.
So I am making a new post now that hopefully is “useful and relevant”.
But I need to give some context first: Let’s call it “service A” recently started working on improving photos and this created a whole new “discussion” on other forum. In my yesterday’s post I gave a summary of what is going on, how people are reacting and what they found. I double checked everything before I posted links and screenshots. Ok, straight to the point:
There is information in Ente’s privacy policy about non encrypted data that Ente collects, like email addresses, IP, logs, device identifiers, other personal information and more:
How Ente uses it:
Then when you scroll down there is info about who is Ente 3rd party providers meaning who they can share personal user information with:
Apple, Goolge, Amazon, Anthropic, PayPal, BitPay, Wasabi, Zoho, Stripe, Hugging Face, Grafana, Open Street Maps, Stadia Maps, PostHog, Postmark, Hetzner, BlackBlaze, Scaleway, Cloudfare.

So my question is, how private is user personal non encrypted data with Ente?
Also, a big request to the mods: if you still feel that this is promotional, please send me a message explaining what changes I need to make before removing the post completely. I’m happy to cooperate.
