Neither Hacker News nor Reddit have the appropriate typeface options for the requisite magnitude of NOPE this deserves to be responded to with. Nothing about completing AI training tasks requires anything but the bare minimum of my data, and certainly not selling it.
"All legal consequences and rights to legal recourse"? Dude, no. Just no. Combined with the lack of privacy policy and ToS, this looks like a very sketchy, fly-by-night operation.

Edit: As I was submitting this, I see the Get in touch link has been updated, however, the Download link has not, and the terms has simply changed to "We encrypt all data in transit and at rest."
That's great, but, that doesn't really sound like Terms of Service to me.
please be patient ':)
Still working on legal stuff.
Working on more bugs now.
This wasn't like an official launch still very much work in progress.
This reminds me of communist-era practice of spying on your neighbors for "the good of your country." And, just like this app, the spies received small payments for the quality and frequency of their information. The more things change, the more they stay the same...
companies that use mechanical turk share your sensitive data with people working in third-world clickfarms.
we "digitally shred" your audio and image data before we get it annotated.
Basically we just productizing CAPTCHA and making it work on smartphones and Ethereum
Encryption is reversible, the question is who has access to the keys and what data does it unlock.
Also, it seems odd that this is never mentioned in your privacy policy (ctrl+f "crypt" to match decryption/encryption/cryptography, but no hits). You'd think if this is a core feature to maintain security and/or privacy and distinguish yourself from the competition, it would be in there...
Very specific. This some template that basically says "we don't care"?
Legal stuff coming soon.
Median (not mean) user monthly earnings?
Yeah, how about fucking off? What the shit is this about? People should mind their own business. It is like those apps that ask you to collect WiFi SSIDs while driving around to 'help creating better location services' aka violate people's privacy for profit by some company.
An individual might accidentally capture a license plate on a picture they take, or if you use pictures for traffic monitoring and they capture license plates but you don't store the data, those might be legitimate purposes. "Go around and spy on your neighbours for some foreign company" cannot be legal.
See also the privacy policy that was lorem ipsum when this was posted. When someone commented, the owner seems to have quickly downloaded a template somewhere that says vague things like "we use it for legitimate business interests".
They even forgot to change the links, so all sebenz.ai links still go to the scale site...
Different laws apply to different places.
We care about privacy.
