Changed ownership of a map without any contact with the actual owner of the map, us. Literally, made a team member the owner, giving them access to payment details etc. When asked about it, silence! If they were in Europe they would be getting reported to GDPR
Tip for consumers:
Don't use them if you are creating maps for clients, the do not clearly care about security or data protection.
I was initially very pleased with MapMe. The maps were very functional and the ability of embedding them to a website was great. Until the day users start contacting me asking me saying they couldn't access the map and were getting a 404 error.
I went to my account and the map had disappeared. I had over 70 pins on the map and had spent a good amount of hours creating it and it was just gone with no warning and no notification.
I contact the costumer service support and the only thing they said was "it is possible that the map has been removed automatically from the system if it was not on a premium plan and did not abide by the free tier limitations."
I understand that, but not sending a notification beforehand so I could make other arrangements was pretty terrible.
I asked them if there was a possibility of recovering the data and they said no.
Definitely never using MapMe again.
They advertise it as a free service, but clearly do not respect their costumers.
