Nearly 4 years to the day, I've finally drafted something. I'd appreciate any feedback. IANAL, and I realize most (all) out here won't be either, but if you see anything glaringly wrong with it, let me know. I started by trying to use a free "privacy policy generator", and it was basically useless for my purposes here. :-D My goal ended up being both discussion of privacy to users visiting the website, and interacting with the project as a whole (via email, mailing lists, etc.), as well as to briefly mention the fact that the Tux Paint software _itself_ doesn't actually transmit anything, let alone personal information. (I'm going to double-check with the folks working on the Android version to confirm the accuracy of my statement regarding its download capabilities.) http://tuxpaint.org/privacy/ Thanks in advance! -bill! _______________________________________________ Spi-general mailing list [email protected] http://lists.spi-inc.org/listinfo/spi-general
