## Gegevens die wij van bezoekers verzamelen
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
De privacy van onze websitebezoekers is belangrijk voor ons, dus we volgen geen individuele personen. Als bezoeker van onze website:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
- No personal information is stored
 | 
			
		||||
- 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
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
You can view the data we collect on our [statistics](statistics.md) page.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
We run a self-hosted installation of [Umami](https://umami.is) 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, and no personal data is stored.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The only data which is collected is data sent in a standard web request, which includes referral sources, the page you're visiting, your user agent, your IP address, and your screen resolution. The raw data is immediately discarded after statistics have been generated, for example if we collect your screen resolution as `1125x2436`, the only data we retain is "mobile device" and not your specific resolution.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## Gegevens die wij van account houders verzamelen
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
If you register for an account on one of our services, we may collect any information you provide us (such as your email, password, profile information, etc.) and use that information to provide you with the service. We never share or sell this data.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Some services we host have separate privacy policies which supersede this document. For example, the privacy policy of our forum can be found at [discuss.privacyguides.net/privacy](https://discuss.privacyguides.net/privacy).

		||||
## Contact met ons opnemen
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Even in the limited cases where your data is collected, our volunteers and most members of the Privacy Guides team have no access to that information. Some information (such as your email address) may be accessible to moderators via limited control panels for the purposes of moderating our communities.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Thus, inquiries regarding your personal information should be sent directly to:

### Mullvad Leta
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Mullvad Browser comes with DuckDuckGo set as the default [search engine](search-engines.md), but it also comes pre-installed with **Mullvad Leta**, a search engine which requires an active Mullvad VPN subscription to access. Mullvad Leta raadpleegt de betaalde zoek API van Google direct en is daarom beperkt tot het betalen van abonnees. Door deze beperking is het echter mogelijk voor Mullvad om zoekopdrachten en Mullvad VPN-accounts te correleren. Daarom raden wij het gebruik van Mullvad Leta af, ook al verzamelt Mullvad zeer weinig informatie over hun VPN-abonnees.
 | 
			
		||||
Mullvad Browser comes with [**Mullvad Leta**](https://leta.mullvad.net) as the default search engine, which functions as a proxy to either Google or Brave search results (configurable on the Mullvad Leta homepage).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
If you are a Mullvad VPN user, there is some risk in using services like Mullvad Leta which are offered by your VPN provider themselves. This is because Mullvad theoretically has access to your true IP address (via their VPN) and your search activity (via Leta), which is information a VPN is typically intended to separate. Even though Mullvad collects very little information about their VPN subscribers or Leta users, you should consider a different [search engine](search-engines.md) if this risk concerns you.

Wanneer dit is ingeschakeld, wordt het mogelijk om jouw browsercookies gemakkelijk te wissen door Firefox gewoon opnieuw op te starten. Je kunt per site uitzonderingen instellen, als je ingelogd wilt blijven op een bepaalde site die je vaak bezoekt.

This protects you from persistent cookies, but does not protect you against cookies acquired during any one browsing session. When this is enabled, it becomes possible to easily cleanse your browser cookies by simply restarting Firefox. You can set exceptions on a per-site basis, if you wish to stay logged in to a particular site you visit often.

Arkenfox wil alleen elementaire of naïeve volgscripts dwarsbomen via canvas randomisatie en de ingebouwde configuratie-instellingen voor vingerafdrukbestendigheid van Firefox. Het is niet de bedoeling dat jouw browser opgaat in een grote menigte van andere Arkenfox-gebruikers op dezelfde manier als Mullvad Browser of Tor Browser dat doen, wat de enige manier is om geavanceerde tracking-scripts voor vingerafdrukken te dwarsbomen. Remember that you can always use multiple browsers, for example, you could consider using Firefox+Arkenfox for a few sites that you want to stay logged in on or otherwise trust, and Mullvad Browser for general browsing.

		||||
Arkenfox only aims to thwart basic or naive tracking scripts through canvas randomization and Firefox's built-in fingerprint resistance configuration settings. It does not aim to make your browser blend in with a large crowd of other Arkenfox users in the same way Mullvad Browser or Tor Browser do, which is the only way to thwart advanced fingerprint tracking scripts. Remember that you can always use multiple browsers, for example, you could consider using Firefox+Arkenfox for a few sites that you want to stay logged in on or otherwise trust, and Mullvad Browser for general browsing.

## What personal information does Privacy Guides collect, and why?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Privacy Guides collects information about visits to its websites
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
When you visit one of our websites, whether you have an account or not, we use server logs and other methods to collect data about what pages you visit and when.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
We use this data to:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
- Optimize our websites, so they are quick and easy to use.
 | 
			
		||||
- Diagnose and debug technical errors.
 | 
			
		||||
- Defend our websites from abuse and technical attacks.
 | 
			
		||||
- Compile statistics on page/topic popularity.
 | 
			
		||||
- Compile statistics on the type of browser and devices our visitors use.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||

## Does Privacy Guides use personal information for marketing purposes?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Privacy Guides may use personal data about our users in order to directly promote our own resources, such as for sharing new resources or when fundraising. We also use the information you give us when signing up for our mailing lists and announcements to send those messages.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
You can always opt out of marketing communications from us, and you have the right to object to any processing of your information for marketing purposes.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Privacy Guides never provides or sells your data to third-parties for marketing purposes.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## How can I make choices about data collection?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Your account on our websites has a settings page which provides you with options about how your data is used.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Most web browsers let you make choices about whether to accept cookies, for specific websites or more generally.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Privacy Guides does not respond to the (now deprecated) [Do Not Track HTTP header](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Do_Not_Track).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## Where does Privacy Guides store data about me?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Most data is hosted by [Triplebit](https://www.triplebit.org/) web services in the United States. Some publicly accessible data may be hosted by Content Delivery Networks with servers in other jurisdictions. For example, your profile picture may be hosted on multiple servers around the world.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## Does Privacy Guides comply with the EU General Data Protection Regulation?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Privacy Guides respects rights under the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Information that GDPR requires Privacy Guides to give can be found throughout this privacy notice, including information on the rights of data subjects.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### What are my rights under the GDPR?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The GDPR provides you with the following rights with respect to personal information about you that we collect or process:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
- the right to [access](#where-can-i-access-data-about-me) your personal data
 | 
			
		||||
- the right to [rectification](#how-can-i-change-or-erase-data-about-me) of inaccurate or incomplete personal data
 | 
			
		||||
- the right to [erasure](#how-can-i-change-or-erase-data-about-me) of your personal data
 | 
			
		||||
- the right to [data portability](#where-can-i-access-data-about-me)
 | 
			
		||||
- the right to restrict the processing of your personal data
 | 
			
		||||
- the right to object to certain processing of your information, including [automated decision-making](#does-privacy-guides-make-automated-decisions-based-on-my-data) and [direct marketing](#does-privacy-guides-use-personal-information-for-marketing-purposes)
 | 
			
		||||
- the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Information about how to exercise these rights is provided throughout this notice and linked above. We try to make exercising all of these rights easy to do on your own through your account settings, but for more complicated inquiries the best option will be to [contact](#how-can-i-contact-privacy-guides-about-privacy) us.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Does Privacy Guides make international data transfers?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Currently:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
- Privacy Guides [processes personal data on servers outside the European Union](#where-does-privacy-guides-store-data-about-me).
 | 
			
		||||
- Privacy Guides uses [subprocessors](#subprocessors-used-by-privacy-guides) with personnel and computers outside the European Union.
 | 
			
		||||
- Privacy Guides has personnel in the United States, Australia, and other non-EU countries without EU adequacy decisions under GDPR. These people need access to forum personal data in order to keep forums running, address security concerns, respond to privacy-related requests from users, field technical support requests, and otherwise assist users.
 | 
			
		||||
- Privacy Guides is very likely subject to section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act in the United States, a law that the European Court of Justice has found inadequately protects the rights and freedoms of data subjects.
 | 
			
		||||
- Privacy Guides has never received any order or request for personal data under FISA 702 or any similar national security or surveillance law of any other country. Privacy Guides is not subject to any court order or legal obligation that would prevent it from disclosing the existence or non-existence of such an order or request.
 | 
			
		||||
- Privacy Guides has a policy for how we will respond to those orders and requests, in case we ever receive one. Privacy Guides will suspend processing, notify any affected user, minimize disclosure, and resist disclosure of personal data, all as the law allows.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Because national security and surveillance laws may be in conflict with European data protection rules, Privacy Guides continually reassesses the practical reach of these laws to ensure our data transfers are adequately safeguarded.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## Does Privacy Guides comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act and other US state comprehensive privacy laws?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Privacy Guides is not a "business" for the purposes of the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) or a “controller” directly subject to other US state comprehensive privacy laws.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Privacy Guides **never** sells your personal information.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## Where can I access data about me?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
You can see your account data by visiting your profile page on any websites where we offer accounts. Your account profile will also list your posts and other activity on the website.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
On the forum, your [profile settings](https://discuss.privacyguides.net/my/preferences/account) include a link to download all of your activity in standard Comma Separated Values format.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
If you do not have an account with us but have a data access request, please [contact us](about.md).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## How can I change or erase data about me?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
You can change your account data at any time by visiting the profile settings page for your account. You also have the option to delete your profile on the settings page of your account. Utilizing this option begins the process of erasing or anonymizing Privacy Guides' records of data you provided for your account. Forum administrators and moderators also have the option to erase and anonymize accounts.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
You may also be able to edit, anonymize, or erase your posts. When you edit posts, Privacy Guides will keep all versions of your posts. These old versions of posts are not public, but may be accessed by forum moderators or administrators.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## Does Privacy Guides make automated decisions based on my data?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### The Privacy Guides forum classifies posts as spam automatically
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
We use data about your posts and other posts on many forums to make automated decisions about whether your posts to our websites are likely spam.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
If you think a post has been wrongfully blocked or removed, please contact a forum moderator who can override this decision.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### The Privacy Guides forum uses data about your posts and activity to set trust levels
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
We use data about your posts and activity on our forum to award you badges and calculate a trust level for your account. Your trust level may affect how you can participate in the forum, such as whether you can upload images, as well as give you access to moderation and management powers in the forum. Your trust level therefore reflects forum administrators’ confidence in you, and their willingness to delegate community management functions, like moderation.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
If you think your trust level has been set incorrectly, contact an administrator of your forum. They can manually adjust the trust level of your account.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### The Privacy Guides forum uses community flags to take automated actions
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Your posts may be automatically hidden, or your ability to post may be automatically suspended, as a result of your posts being flagged by other users.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
These decisions are later reviewed by moderators, who can override these decisions at their discretion.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## Does Privacy Guides share data about me with others?
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Privacy Guides shares account data with others as described in [the section about account data](#privacy-guides-collects-account-data).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Privacy Guides shares data about your posts and other activity as described in [the section about forum data](#privacy-guides-collects-data-about-posts-and-other-activity-on-our-forum).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Subprocessors used by Privacy Guides
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Privacy Guides uses the following subprocessors, and may share personal data with the service providers we use in order to host our website, deliver content, secure our services, store data, host and manage our open source website, and provide user support.
 | 
			
		||||
 |
