We should not link that in this context because that page is not the permalink for the privacy statement and should not be referenced as truth (especially if we ever moved off GitHub). However, we could include that as a link to see revision history I suppose.

For the sake of having a more accurate privacy statement across our services—and because I'm really the only one who can verify the accuracy of this document—I'm merging this PR now. If anyone has issues with the content of this PR they can open an issue or email privacy@aragon.ventures if it's a private matter.
