## Who is Privacy Guides?

Privacy Guides is a community project operated by a number of active volunteer contributors. The public list of team members [can be found on GitHub](https://github.com/orgs/privacyguides/people).

## How does Privacy Guides collect data about me?

We collect data:

* When you browse a website, forum, or other Privacy Guides service.
* When you create an account on a Privacy Guides service.
* When you post, send private messages, or otherwise participate on a Privacy Guides service.

This data will be collected regardless of browser, device, or app used to access our services. We do not buy or otherwise receive data from data brokers.
## Data We Collect From Visitors

## What data do you collect and why?
The privacy of our website visitors is important to us, so we do not track any individual people. As a visitor to our website:

### We collect data about visits to our websites
- No personal information is collected
- No information such as cookies is stored in the browser
- No information is shared with, sent to or sold to third-parties
- No information is shared with advertising companies
- No information is mined and harvested for personal and behavioral trends
- No information is monetized

When you visit a Privacy Guides website or service, regardless of whether you have an account or not, the website may use cookies, server logs, and other methods to collect the following data:
We run a self-hosted version of [Plausible Analytics](https://plausible.io) to collect some anonymous usage data for statistical purposes. The goal is to track overall trends in our website traffic, it is not to track individual visitors. All the data is in aggregate only. No personal data is collected.

* What pages you visit,
* Your anonymized IP address: We anonymize the last 3 bytes of your IP, e.g. 192.xxx.xxx.xxx.
Data collected includes referral sources, top pages, visit duration, information from the devices (device type, operating system, country and browser) used during the visit and more.

We use this data to:

* Optimize websites and services, so that they are quick and easy to use,
* Diagnose and debug technical errors,
* Defend websites and services from abuse and technical attacks.

This data is processed under our [Legitimate Interest](https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/guide-to-data-protection/guide-to-the-general-data-protection-regulation-gdpr/legitimate-interests/when-can-we-rely-on-legitimate-interests/) to provide our services to you in a an efficient and secure manner and to ensure the legal compliance and proper administration of our business.

Raw data such as pages visited, anonymized visitor IPs, and visitor actions will be retained for 60 days. In special circumstances—such as extended investigations regarding a technical attack—we may preserve logged data for longer periods for analysis. We store aggregate statistics about use of the websites and services we host indefinitely, but those statistics do not include data identifiable to you personally.

### We collect account data
