Security: The connection between you and Atombox is always secure (SSL). Backups: All of your data is backed up every hour. So the actual connection is encrypted, but then everything is backed up every hour. How secure are the backups. Are they encrypted as well? How are they stored? Who has access? EDIT: Also I didn't realize that GTD and "Getting Things Done" were registered trademarks. That's crazy. You can't say your site helps with GTD without attributing the trademark? It seems like that would almost fall under the ubiquitous vocabulary clause that would invalidate trademark at this point.

We attribute the "GTD" and "Getting Things Done" trademark at the bottom of the page: "'GTD' and 'Getting Things Done' are registered trademarks of the David Allen Corporation."

  Right, that's exactly what I was referring to. I didn't realize you had to attribute the acronym GTD. Your attribution is what surprised me.

    Oh. Maybe we don't? I thought both "GTD" and "Getting Things Done" are trademarks...

      I didn't mean to imply that you don't need to, you very well may. I was just surprised nonetheless.

    It comes down to confusion, the attribution is an insurance policy, there's no fear that consumers believe that the origin of this service is the RTM holder as it's disclaimed hence no trademark infringement. That's why, I believe, you get attributions for mere mentions of mega-corp names in some advertising copy. In this instance I think that GTD should probably be avoided without a disclaimer as it's not a common usage that I've heard whilst "getting things done" (no capitals) is just a generic phrase used in all fields. I'd be surprised if a RTM was granted for this text, perhaps the specific form of the logo is RTM-ed? IANA-TM-L but I worked in IP for a while.
