And make mention of CALEA. There is some ambiguity IMO I'm not thrilled with so I'm reaching out about that.

We hash passwords with a twelve-character random salt and 20,000 iterations of HMAC-SHA256 via PBKDF2. Your contact email address. Your Silent Phone number that we issue you Server IP Logs for login only. We currently retain these for 7 days, and are working to reduce this to 24 hours" "We are a law-abiding company, and US law (the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act, CALEA) makes it clear that communications service providers can deliver products to their customers that use encryption to protect their communications without having the ability to decrypt those communications. This means no Government-mandated backdoors. Indeed, history has shown that backdoors created for law enforcement interception are themselves a security liability, and present an irresistible target for hackers and state sponsored attackers." And "We must and will comply with valid legal demands for the very limited information we hold. Thus, we want to make it clear that when legally compelled to do so, we will turn over the little information we hold, described above. Before turning it over, however, we will evaluate the request to make sure it complies with the letter and spirit of the law. And, consistent with best privacy practices followed by other companies, when possible and legally permissible, we will notify the user in order to give him or her the opportunity to object to the disclosure."
