Privacy statement (lemmy.world)

Love Lemmy and this server. I appreciate the probably hellish amount of work that goes on to keep this ticking over, truly. But is there a privacy statement available? I like to know these things.

There's https://lemmy.world/legal for a variety of instance policy things, but it doesn't cover privacy and I don't believe there is an official statement on that.

Having one would be nice, but my sense from how admins handle transparency in general is that the privacy practices here are best-in-clasd compared to commercial social media giants. That's speculation of course, but semi informed by watching how the admins have handled a wide variety of issues.

Yeah, I agree, they appear to me to be people integrity. It's not really a trust issue, I just like to know what the practices are so I can adjust my own practices accordingly.

any transparency on the finances/non-profit registration?

[โ€“] PriorProject@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

https://blog.mastodon.world/ posts monthly-ish finance updates. I've never heard about formalizing as a non-profit, and their choice to do so or not is not something I'm concerned about given their track record with masotodon world and their voluntary transparency.
