A common question we get is: "Is it safe to link my Amazon account to NabNinja?" It's a valid concern! You're granting a service permission to access your account and make purchases. We want to assure you that security is our absolute top priority.
Here's a breakdown of why you can trust NabNinja with your Amazon account:
Secure Authentication Process
- Official Amazon Linking: We use Amazon's official, secure methods for account linking (often involving secure tokens rather than storing your password directly, similar to "Login with Amazon" features). You are typically redirected to Amazon to approve the connection, ensuring NabNinja never sees your raw password.
- Limited Permissions: We only request the minimum permissions necessary to monitor item availability and place orders on your behalf. We cannot access your payment methods directly (Amazon handles the payment during the bot-initiated checkout), change account settings, or view unrelated personal information.
Bank-Level Encryption
- Data Protection: Any sensitive data we do handle, like the secure connection tokens, is protected using industry-standard, bank-level encryption both in transit (when communicating with Amazon) and at rest (when stored in our secure databases).
How it Differs from Risky Alternatives
Unlike shady browser extensions or scripts that might ask for your password directly or run entirely locally (potentially exposing your credentials), NabNinja operates through a secure, server-based system designed with security best practices in mind. Linking your account through our official process is significantly safer than sharing your login details.
Our Commitment
- Transparency: We aim to be transparent about how our service works and the permissions required.
- Focus: Our sole purpose is to securely purchase items you've reserved. We have no interest in misusing your account information.
- Reliability: We are building a trustworthy service for the long term, and that starts with robust security.
Linking your Amazon account is the necessary step that allows NabNinja to automatically purchase items for you the moment they restock. We've implemented rigorous security measures so you can use our service with confidence, knowing your account is safe.
