Privacy Policy

This is a not-yet-official Privacy Policy for Miraheze.

Browsing
To disable tracking by this site, enable the Do Not Track header in your browser.

Miraheze collects information (via Piwik) about your computer, including its location, web browser, and IP address. The last byte of your IP will be redacted, before we save it in our analytics database. We do not use external trackers, so any information we collect is not transferred to third parties. We store it for up to 90 days, and do not transfer it to other parties.

We may publish public aggregates of information, like graphs of unique visitors, browser usage percent, etc. These will not contain any personally identifiable information.

Additionally, we maintain an access log of all incoming traffic for 90 days. This log includes your full, non-redacted IP, the visited URL, web browser, timestamp of the visit and referer. This logging cannot be disabled with the Do Not Track header. This information will only be used for technical or legal reasons, and will never be released to a third party unless required by law.

Editing
When you edit a wiki page or otherwise provide content to a wiki, your IP address is logged by Miraheze. If the edit was made with a logged-in account, this information is only available to Miraheze staff (i.e. the CheckUser privilege). If you edit anonymously, your edit is publicly identified with the IP address.

Whatever you decide to put up on a wiki page about yourself becomes public, and is covered under the terms of the applicable content license (typically CC-BY-SA, but see the individual wiki) instead of this policy.

Third-party features
Some wikis may include pages including third party extensions. ... Youtube

Children under age 13
Miraheze does not collect personally identifying information on children under age 13, except for the access log listed above. This information is only used for technical or legal purposes, is not shared with any third party unless required by law, and is deleted after 90 days.

Children under age 13 may use Miraheze, but may not post personally identifiable information with their account. If Miraheze discovers any personal information posted by a person under thirteen years of age, it will be expunged will all due speed.
