 Whenever you create, edit or delete a page, we log your username and IP address. This is necessary to prevent [[wp>wp:vandalism|vandalism]] (we can easily block the username / IP address of users who vandalize the Wurst Wiki).
-We also publicly display your username in the "Old revisions" tab of any page that you have created, edited or deleted. By default, we keep your username in the "Old revisions" tab forever, even if you delete your account.

 ===== Third Party Services =====
-==== Google Analytics ====
-Google Analytics is a free tool that allows us to see how many people are visiting the Wurst Wiki, which of its pages are the most popular, etc.
-Using Google Analytics allows us to measure the popularity of the Wurst Wiki, to make sure that our future decisions are backed by real data, and to see how our past decisions have affected the popularity of the Wurst Wiki.
-This is important because we are humans that make mistakes from time to time. Whenever we make an unpopular decision that hurts the popularity of the Wurst Wiki, it is important that we find out about this as soon as possible so that we can fix our mistakes early and prevent further damage.
-On the flip side, Google Analytics allows us to find out when our decisions have helped the Wurst Wiki to gain popularity. We hope that this will help us to make the Wurst Wiki better for everyone.
-Google Analytics has to collect some anonymized data to make it work. For example, Google Analytics uses a cookie to assign each visitor a random number. This allows them to tell the difference between a) many people visiting a webpage once and b) one person visiting a webpage many times.
-Without this cookie, we couldn't measure the popularity of the Wurst Wiki accurately. Someone could (perhaps intentionally) open the Wurst Wiki 100.000 times and we would think we have 100.000 users when it's actually just one. Because the cookie just contains a random number, it allows Google Analytics to tell people apart without revealing their identity.
-We use Google Analytics with the "anonymizeIP" option. This makes it so that Google Analytics will only store an anonymized version of your IP address so you can be extra sure that this data cannot be used to identify you. See [[https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/2763052?hl=en|"how IP anonymization works"]] for details.
-Even though Google Analytics data is important to us and doesn't reveal your identity, you can still turn off Google Analytics by installing the [[https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout|GA Opt-Out Browser Plugin]]. Note that this will turn off Google Analytics on all websites, not just the Wurst Wiki.
