This was my original post here on these threads:
I never heard of Outright until Etsy talked about it in their latest blog about business tax filing.
It sounded good so I was all set to sign up until I got to the part where they list what they can have access to in your shop....
this one did not sit well with me...
•See your private shop data and Edit your shop, including description, policies, sections and banner
What? Why would they want to do that?
Am I reading or interpreting this wrong?
Any insight would be appreciated!

Here is the reply from an Outright CS rep:
I have received two such emails this morning, and I will tell you that I
honestly have no idea where that information is coming from. It is utterly and
completely untrue. Please be assured, we only have one-way access to your data,
and that is only to import it. Data moves into Outright, never out of it.

change, add to, or deduct from source data at any data provider, from Etsy to
the smallest credit union. This is one of our better qualities, because it
necessarily avoids a whole host of potential problems, from basic privacy
intrusions like the ones you have listed to major financial fraud or theft.
Please let me be clear: Outright in no way, shape, or form can do these things,
nor can Outright's employees or executives.
