The following passage from the MIT license applies (bold emphasis added), where “SOFTWARE” refers to this website, Quote Checker:
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED “AS IS”, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT.

We grant use of Quote Checker at our discretion and may discontinue the service at any time and without notice.
Do not use Quote Checker for any illegal activities.
We are not responsible for the accuracy of quotes or any other information provided by users. We are not responsible for third-party content of any kind, including links to other sites and content hosted on other sites.
What information Quote Checker processes depends on whether you submit any quotes and the information contained in those submissions. Any such submissions are public, and you consent to Quote Checker publicly displaying them in perpetuity.
Note that diffing quotes transmits information as you type. This is to generate a preview of the diff for you before you submit it.
Certain types of information are processed automatically, even if all you do is browse Quote Checker. That information is sent by your browser and beyond Quote Checker’s control. It usually includes:
Any website processes this information when you visit it; Quote Checker is no exception.
Quote Checker does not use fingerprinting nor cookies or cookie-like technology (such as local storage). It does not store anything on your device.

Collected information is shared and processed internationally with third parties. We use:
Note that these third parties may use cookies or cookie-like technology.
We do not sell any collected information.

Quote Checker doesn’t need to be CCPA or CDPA compliant.
Server logs are stored for 7 days. Information in and associated with diffs is stored in perpetuity to display on the site. If you send us an email, we’ll store it for one year to provide satisfactory customer service. All other information is potentially stored in perpetuity – check the respective third-party privacy policies above for data-retention limits.
Most of the information stored is going to be next to impossible to associate with you anyway, but email us and we’ll see what we can do. Whether we are obligated to delete your information depends on the laws of your country.
We don’t like to delete submissions. Think before you write.
We process information based on your consent and/or to protect and enact our legitimate interests, including offering Quote Checker to the public, preventing fraud, ensuring the security of Quote Checker more generally, improving Quote Checker by eg diagnosing problems, and responding to user inquiries. We also process information to fulfill orders of Pro articles.
You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us, but note that this has no effect on information already processed. The best way to stop producing processable information is to stop visiting this website.
No technology is ever 100% secure, but we follow industry standards to keep your information safe. Quote Checker is a very low-stakes environment so there’s really no need to worry. Just don’t divulge anything in your submissions that you might later regret. That said, visit and use Quote Checker at your own risk. You are responsible for your security, not us.
We may revise these terms and privacy notice without notifying you. Your continued use of this site implies agreement. You are obligated to check the terms and privacy notice for changes from time to time – the date of the last update will be posted at the top.
