DID:Privacy policy

This website does not use any hidden tracking, and does not ask for any details unless you choose to sign up for an account or use the social networking features. The vast majority of visitors just view the information, and the technology lets us know which pages are most popular by counting total page visits, rather than tracking individual visitors. A cookie is stored if you click the button to view the triggering image on the Self-harm page but it does not include tracking. The MediaWiki technology which runs this website is also used on many other websites, including Wikipedia.

Creating an Account
If you do choose to sign up for an account then there is no need to provide any personally identifiable information. Creating an account lets you add pages to your personal watch list, which we don't monitor. Accounts do not ask for, or store, social networking details. If you decided to become an editor then others will be able to see which pages you edited and when, but not which pages were viewed, or when or anything beyond what you choose to type in. Currently anonymous editing is disabled, if it is enabled in the future than a record of your IP address may be visible to others on edited pages only.

Social networking
Features linked to from another website, such as YouTube, may automatically pass the information to that website, although they will still work if you are logged out of social networking accounts. The social networking tools visible allow you to like our project's google plus and facebook pages in order to see notifications of recent posts. You can also share, store or email page links using the tools at the bottom of the page. We don't use your social networking information details for any other purpose and do not pass it on either. What google, facebook, or similar do with the data is outside of our control although they have settings which can be used to increase your privacy. We may at some point add a google sign-up feature which would allow mobile users to be automatically asked if they wish to download the mobile app only. The individual pages or websites viewed afterwards will not be tracked.

Android
Android users will find all apps installed from Google play will keep a record of their device ID, but this can be reset by your mobile in the Settings feature. Free apps such as the Trauma Dissociative Disorders app will still work, paid apps may not.
