| I have a question about the privacy of convos |
|
sherrytruitt says: |
I read on the Unoffical Etsy News earlier today that convos are not private. Does anyone know if this is true?
Although I doubt people are really writing personal things, I can imagine on those types of threads where people ask for help(ie domestic violence) it should be private.
So, can admin read them if they want to? |

I'm sure they can. Just like yahoo or google can read your emails. The question being, why would they bother? Technically, the government can tap your phone line, but they rarely do. |

I would imagine anything on here is available to admin and likely able to be hacked it you really wanted to |

Yes, I seem to remember that Admin has the ability to read convos, although they are on the honor system not to abuse the privilege. |

(Don't believe everything you read on the UEN.)
Your Conversations are private.
In cases of disputes or abuse, Etsy's Admin may ask your permission to view your Convos to get the full story, but this is rather rare. |
