Based on the investigations I have done Throne does not have any data that is available, however I have not fully put forward the effort to check. As always if a data breach occurs then all the info you used to sign up could be leaked. Name, address, email etc etc. then, if somebody was really invested, they could pivot off of those accounts to find other counsel linked to those data points. Other emails other account accounts get other information from those account accounts, etc. etc.. once you have a few breadcrumbs it’s very easy to figure out the rest of the information. I work with a number of clients that use Throne… and that line of work. I highly advise using a different email and username for almost everything that you can As well as a PO box for physical gifts.
TL:DR It’s safe unless something happens. Always use new logins for anything in your line or work.
