    Their TOS and privacy policy looks confusing (in German, another link to it gives a 404 error), and there is mention of Google Analytics usage, but maybe they are still working on the site ?

      Click in the search page at the bottom left in “Terms”, there it is in english (very creepy TOS and PP)

    Looks nice. But, how secure is it? There is not much information at the GitHub page.
