Mashical takes the privacy of its users very seriously. We rely strictly on OpenID logins, so we never store your username or password. You choose from your existing identities to login to create your calendars. Key points: - We store a display name, unique identifier, and a list of your associated OpenID urls in a datastore. This information is used solely to associate you with calendars you create and will never be shared with anyone or used for other purposes.
- Because Mashical uses OpenID for logins, your username and passwords are never even transmitted to the Mashical application.
- We set a cookie, containing your unique user ID, in your browser so that you aren't required to log in on each successive visit. You may delete this cookie by logging out or manually deleting it from your browser cookie store.
- Because there is no authentication protocol for ICS, the ICS link for any calendar is not secure (anyone who knows the url could access it). For this reason, we create a unique identifier for the ICS feed so that it is not "guessable."
- You may choose to make a calendar you create public. In this case, the calendar will be viewable by anyone accessing the Mashical site, including search engines. If you don't make the calendar public, it is only visible to you (however, you may share the private ICS url with others, who can then subscribe to it in their calendaring application.
