Plans on Updating your privacy policy? #3

Open exts opened 6 years ago

exts commented 6 years ago

A lot of this seems dated and I have concerns about the data collected section now that this is open source. It's misformated on the website, but you guys can check it out below. It talks about "not comparing stored voice recordings?" How would Xenko even know if there were voice recordings or do you guys record our voices? I'm not entirely sure or if there was a translation issue.

It was hastily edited from previous version. There is definitely need for a full rewrite, but since I am no lawyer, it might take little bit of time... Thanks for reminding it to me.

FYI, in practice, the only thing we currently collect is some anonymous metrics (how many time run per months, what platforms are being targeted, etc...) and crash report (if user press the Send button).
