Welcome to Test Wiki! We're excited to have you here. There are a few things for you to keep in mind, though, for your privacy and safety.


== General Scope == <!--T:1-->
<!--T:19-->
==What we collect==
We collect IP addresses and browser information of everyone who visits the site and/or edits (Lawful basis: Legitimate interest, site operations and abuse prevention), cookies, when you ask us to keep you logged in (Lawful basis: your consent), pages you visit or edit (Lawful basis: Legitimate interest, site operations), basic usage data through Matomo Analytics (Lawful basis: legitimate interest, site operations and improvement).


<!--T:20-->
===When you create an account or contact us===
<!--T:2-->
We collect a username (Lawful basis: Legitimate interest, to perform your requested action), email address optionally (Lawful basis: your consent, can be revoked through removing your email address through your preferences), and any messages you send to us through staff@testwiki.wiki (Lawful basis: Legitimate interest, responding to your inquiry and site administration)
This policy outlines what personally identifiable information is collected and stored by Test Wiki and how it is used.


<!--T:26-->
==Analytics==
We use Matomo Analytics to improve the site. This collects the following:
*Which pages are most visited by you, and
*Browser/device type and country
We create usage profiles based on your IP from this data to improve the site.


== Anonymous usage == <!--T:3-->
<!--T:22-->
==How we use your data==
We use all this to:
*Moderate the site and improve it
*Prevent spam and abuse (your data may be released to the public for this purpose if we have a specific legitimate or public interest), and
*Maintain the site


<!--T:23-->
==Who can see my data?==
<!--T:4-->
*Stewards and system administrators, for abuse prevention
Before the creation of a user account on Test Wiki, a user has the ability to browse, and in most cases contribute, anonymously. The term "anonymous" in the case of contributing is defined as the action of editing without a registered user account. Instead of contributions made under the registered user account's name, anonymous contributions are stored under your [[wikipedia:IP address|IP address]]. If you do not want your IP address to be publicly displayed, it is recommended that you [[Special:UserLogin/signup|create an account]].
*System administrators, to improve the site.
*The public may view anonymized analytics, along with your edits, username, and IP address if editing without an account. They may also view your personally identifiable information or other data, given one of the following:
*:A court has ordered us to disclose your data in a court proceeding not kept under seal,
*:A system administrator has deemed it necessary for site operations, or
*:A steward or system administrator has disclosed your data to deter persistent and severe abuse, vandalism, or spam.
*Law enforcement and emergency services may see your data given one of the above, and they may also see your data to prevent a crime in progress, apprehend a suspect for a previous crime, (depending on the the country, we may refuse to disclose data for these purposes) and in an emergency to protect vital interests of another person or of you (that is, to save a life).
We do not sell your data to advertisers or other companies, nor do we share it to third parties other than the general public or emergency services unless legally required. Depending on the country and legal basis for the data request, we may not share data even if required by a court, to protect users' privacy.


<!--T:27-->
== Data collected upon visiting == <!--T:5-->
==Your Rights==
You may revoke consent for any of your data collected through consent as described by the comment next to the data. You may also opt out of analytics through sending a "Do Not Track" request to our servers along with your requests. You may also request any of the data that we have on you, per GDPR and other privacy laws. You may also vanish (have your username anonymized) at any time. You may also email us to request that your Matomo Analytics user profile be deleted.


<!--T:25-->
==Children's privacy==
<!--T:6-->
As a non-commercial site, Test Wiki is not subject to COPPA regulations and law in the US, where we are based. As such, children may use our site. In the EU and UK, or anywhere else with digital age of consent requirements, we use legitimate interest for site operations as the basis for lawful collection and processing, not the child's consent. A parent may also exercise the rights described in "Your Rights".
Upon visiting Test Wiki, certain information such as your IP address and user agent (browser and device information) is automatically collected by the software the websites run on. If logged in, visits to the site will be logged in a [[mw:Help:Logs|private CheckUser log]] associated with your username. To store user logins, Test Wiki uses cookies to remember your login for a specific period of time. If you do not wish for login cookies to be stored on your machine, you may uncheck "Keep me logged in" on the login page.


<!--T:28-->
== Data collected upon contributing == <!--T:7-->
==Changes and effective date==

This policy may change as the world and regulations do. This policy was last modified on {{REVISIONMONTH}}-{{REVISIONDAY}}-{{REVISIONYEAR}}, and is effective immediately, unless reverted by a system administrator.
<!--T:8-->
Upon contributing to Test Wiki, certain information such as web browser and IP address are collected and stored by the software that Test Wiki operates on. This information is kept in a private log that can only be accessed by users with [[Test Wiki:CheckUser|Checkuser]] rights, and is kept private to only those with the access to view the CheckUser logs on Test Wiki. If you contribute to Test Wiki anonymously, or without logging in to a registered account, your IP address is publicly stored in association with the contributions you make.

== Data collected upon account creation == <!--T:9-->

<!--T:10-->
Upon registering a user account on Test Wiki, certain information will be collected such as a username, password, and optionally your real name to associate with your contributions to Test Wiki. Your username, and if you supply one, your real name, is publicly accessible by any visitor on Test Wiki. Your password is kept private and encrypted on the Test Wiki server. It is your responsibility to keep your password private to only yourself.

<!--T:11-->
The Test Wiki software allows users to specify their gender in their preferences. This information can be displayed publicly. If you do not wish to share your gender, a registered user may choose to not specify their gender in [[Special:Preferences|Special:Preferences]].

<!--T:12-->
When creating an account on Test Wiki, it is recommended that you specify a valid email address to associate with the account. Your email address is not publicly visible unless you use the [[Special:EmailUser|Special:EmailUser]] feature, which allows for direct user-to-user email conversation. These conversations are not overseen by Test Wiki, and it is your responsibility to practice internet safety when communicating through email. Additionally, specifying an email address allows for email notifications from Test Wiki, which can be selected or modified from [[Special:Preferences|Special:Preferences]].

<!--T:16-->
== Third-party services ==
We use hCaptcha on our service. hCaptcha is used to detect spambots and other unwanted automated activity and prevent it. hCaptcha may analyze a variety of factors, including responses to challenges, to perform this detection. For more information about what information is collected, visit [https://www.hcaptcha.com/privacy hCaptcha's privacy policy].

==Abuse== <!--T:13-->

<!--T:14-->
It is a long-standing practice on this wiki that individuals engaging in:

<!--T:15-->
excessive vandalism with intent of causing mayhem beyond reasonable definition of "testing",
harassment, stalking, or otherwise discomforting other users of the wiki
and other disruptive behavior, deserve to have their privacy violated, at the discretion of the stewards or sysadmins. This may involve a public release of all and any available information that is otherwise considered private, or any other action that would limit further damage.
