Privacy concerns

Some of you may have noticed in the sign-up confirmation email that your username and password are listed in an unobscured manner. This indicates that MRU is storing (at minimum) your password, and likely other data, as plaintext. This is an unacceptable security oversight. PLEASE make sure you use a unique password for this app. If they are unwilling to encrypt their user's passwords, chances are they are seriously neglecting other vital security measures and inviting hackers to compromise user information. I will not be shocked if they are breached. I want to like this app because it's got a nice feature set but this issue needs to be addressed before the app gets more popular.

    Hello, thanks for your comment, but don't worry, all your passwords are securely encrypted and are stored only in an encrypted form. The password that you entered during registration is sent to you even before encryption and is not saved anywhere else. In addition, the email that you receive is sent over secure channels and also in encrypted form.

    But we have taken note of your comment and will not send the password to the message to avoid misunderstandings and we'll change that right now. Thank you

    Best,

    Moto Riders Universe team
