I haven't used this app but I think the parent had expected that the data he entered would be confined to the application, not sent to the app developer. Simple

I haven't used this app but I think the parent had expected that the data he entered would be confined to the application, not sent to the app developer.
Simple analogy: Would you expect Microsoft to harvest every e-mail address you enter into Outlook?
- Karunamon 14y agoOutlook is an application, not a web connected service, though. If I enter my email address when signing up for, say, Office Live, I'd expect to see a Microsoft email in my inbox every now and then.
- mcherm 14y agoWould you expect Google to send emails to people whose addresses have been entered into Gmail?
- Karunamon 14y agoNo, but that's not what happened here. You filled out your personal card which will be shared out with everyone you "bump" with. I haven't used the app, but I'd assume this fills some kind of registration function.
- jonny_eh 14y agoBump emailed the guy that used their service. Your stretching the analogy a bit much.
