Pineapple relies on the transparency of community members to harvest trust in the system.
However, there is a balance that needs to be achieved between transparency and privacy.
βi.e. You may feel comfortable telling your mates about your brand-new sneakers, but perhaps not what you paid for them or what you paying to insure them.
Things ANYONE can see:
βIt is important that people can see these factors about you to find you as a connection and get an understanding of your risk levels
Your name
The area you reside in (at the city level)
Your profile picture
Items in "My Stuff"
When you added the item(s)
Your description of the item(s)
The time that you've been claims free
Badges you have achieved
Your connections/networks
Things only YOUR NETWORKS can see:
Your activity feed
When you have claimed (not the amounts or details)
When you insure an item
Things ONLY YOU can see :
βThis is sensitive information that is for your eyes only
Value of your items
Premiums you are paying
Personal info such as Address, Email, Contact, ID, etc.

NOTE: We are developing privacy toggles that would allow flexibility in what others see, especially when they are not connected to the other person.
