Yes. Benecaster → Settings → Tools → Subscriber CSV downloads your subscribers as a CSV you can open in any spreadsheet, for one tier or all of them. Settings → Your Data exports a fuller workbook. See Exporting Your Data for both. Your subscriber data lives in your WordPress database, and Benecaster does not add any restriction or lock-in to it.
Benecaster runs no analytics, no advertising and no cross-site tracking. The only optional storage on this site is two cookies set by Stripe, our payment processor, to detect card fraud — and only on the checkout page, the free Launch signup page and your account page.
Required — these keep the site working and cannot be turned off.
