system.io - Securing Data on my MacBook Pro and other Apple products

Recently, my attempt to join a podcast on systeme.io, a platform built in France as I understand it, was very problematic. It was incredibly confusing, as I was repeatedly blocked from joining. It seemed to be connected through Google in some way, and presented an extensive disclosure which, if I signed it, I understood would allow access to a broad amount of information, including contacts and financial data.


I became very concerned about the platform and did not pursue joining.


My questions are whether anyone is familiar with Systeme.io and, if so:

  1. Is it a reliable company?
  2. Is it compatible with my Apple technology?
  3. How can I best insure that it - or for that matter any other platform outside the Apple model - cannot access information and data on my Mac?


FYI, I always get apps from the App Store to minimize such risks.


Thank you for your support with this.

Systeme.io is a legitimate French online marketing platform, but the Google-based login flow you saw was requesting permissions you did not need to give. macOS itself does not allow websites to access your files, contacts, or financial data, so you were not endangered — but you were correct to stop. To stay secure, avoid “Sign in with Google,” use Safari’s privacy protections, and never approve permissions you don’t fully understand.
