Your email address, if you sign in or create a watcher: to sign you in and send alerts.
Flows, watchers and settings, if you sign in: to sync them between your devices.
Where it is processed
Our servers are in Frankfurt (Germany). Uptime checks also run from Virginia (USA) and Singapore; they receive only the address being checked.
