Hey there,

We understand that you may not want to read a long-winded, old-school, crusty, boring legal document, so we provided it in both short form just for you with the long-winded, old-school, crusty, boring one to follow.

Short version

We (TokuOra) will not sell, distribute, replicate, or reproduce the personal information that you upload/post unless you opt-in (say yes, it's okay if/when we ask you or if you connect through Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Google, Pinterest, or LinkedIn or alike. The information that you do upload/post is for our internal use so that we can better understand you and therefore help create the roadmap for you through psychometrics and predictive analysis that TokuOra was intended for when first created.

We built TokuOra for you. We like you, we want to help you, so we need to earn your trust. We want you to keep coming back (as we build more tools/resources) and to bring your friends. We don't intend to destroy that trust.
