Can I borrow your Privacy policy for my site

MikeJones

Looking to add Facebook Login can I borrow your privacy policy and tweak as needed?

Also for this section of your policy:

We will make a good faith effort to:

Retain server logs containing the IP address of all requests to this server for no more than 90 days.
Retain the IP addresses associated with registered users and their posts for no more than 5 years.

IS that something Flarum software does automatically or how your specific server is set up? I don't knowingly delete anything from my server so would I just say we don delete anything?

MikeJones Of course you can. There is no reason why you cannot adopt it for your own community and tweak where necessary to suit. Our own privacy policy is actually taken from another site as well and we tweaked it ourselves to suit Flarum.

I wonder if there is a generic one available that suits all, if not, most of sites...

This is not something that the Flarum software does. You would need to do this yourself if you wanted to say this in your privacy policy.

The one we adapted from Discourse was originally created for this very purpose.

Toby appreciate the detailed answer, you guys are awesome!

Should I just drop the privacy policy in a new post on my Flarum? What do you all think?

MikeJones completely up to you. As long as it is always available to users, I don't think it matters if it's in a post, on a dedicated page, or in haiku form.
