This document outlines this service's respect for your personal
|
||
|
|
privacy as a user of the service.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Almost all the text and files that users upload to this site is
|
||
|
|
available under the site license (see the license block at the bottom
|
||
|
|
of this page). Users agree to the license when they register to use
|
||
|
|
the site for the first time. Typically that means that the data can
|
||
|
|
be copied far and wide, for commercial and non-commercial purposes,
|
||
|
|
and in modified or unmodified form. If you're not OK with that,
|
||
|
|
don't use the service.
|
||
|
|
- The following data items are considered *private data* that won't be
|
||
|
|
shared with other users, business partners, or the public at large:
|
||
|
|
* your password
|
||
|
|
* your email address
|
||
|
|
* your IM address (AIM, Jabber, or other instant messaging address)
|
||
|
|
* your phone number
|
||
|
|
- Some private data may be published in aggregate, e.g. "30% of our
|
||
|
|
users are registered with Hotmail addresses."
|
||
|
|
- Your notices (including files) can be downloaded and re-used by
|
||
|
|
other services, either one-by-one or in bulk as
|
||
|
|
[RSS](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS) files.
|
||
|
|
- Your profile information (including subscriptions and avatars) can be
|
||
|
|
downloaded and re-used by other services, either scraped from the HTML
|
||
|
|
interface or in bulk as [FOAF](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FOAF) files.
|
||
|
|
- Your notices will be forwarded to users who subscribe to them,
|
||
|
|
including users on another microblogging service.
|
||
|
|
- Your profile information will be sent to microblogging services for
|
||
|
|
users who subscribe to you or to whom you subscribe.
|
||
|
|
- Based on your email preferences, you may receive automated email
|
||
|
|
messages for important system events, such as when others subscribe
|
||
|
|
to your notices.
|
||
|
|
- Based on your email preferences, you may receive an email
|
||
|
|
newsletter. You can opt out of the newsletter if you don't want to
|
||
|
|
receive it.
|
||
|
|
- In urgent situations, administrators may send you email directly to
|
||
|
|
your registered email address, even if you've requested no notices
|
||
|
|
or newsletter. *Administrators will use digitally-signed email.*
|
||
|
|
- This service will comply with court orders to turn over your private
|
||
|
|
information.
