Wikimedia Foundation Privacy Policy
 | This policy is approved by the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees. It may not be circumvented, eroded, or ignored by Wikimedia Foundation officers or staff nor local policies of any Wikimedia project. |
Because we believe that you should not have to provide personal information to participate in the free knowledge movement, you may:
- Read, edit, or use any Wikimedia Site without registering an account.
- Register for an account without providing an email address or real name.
Because we want to understand how Wikimedia Sites are used so we can make them better for you, we collect some information when you:
- Make public contributions.
- Register an account or update your user page.
- Use the Wikimedia Sites.
- Send us emails or participate in a survey or give feedback.
We are committed to:
- Describing how your information may be used or shared in this Privacy Policy.
- Using reasonable measures to keep your information secure.
- Never selling your information or sharing it with third parties for marketing purposes.
- Only sharing your information in limited circumstances, such as to improve the Wikimedia Sites, to comply with the law, or to protect you and others.
- Retaining your data for the shortest possible time that is consistent with maintaining, understanding, and improving the Wikimedia Sites, and our obligations under applicable law.
Be aware:
- Any content you add or any change that you make to a Wikimedia Site will be publicly and permanently available.
- If you add content or make a change to a Wikimedia Site without logging in, that content or change will be publicly and permanently attributed to the IP address used at the time rather than a username.
- Our community of volunteer editors and contributors is a self-policing body. Certain administrators of the Wikimedia Sites, who are chosen by the community, use tools that grant them limited access to nonpublic information about recent contributions so they may protect the Wikimedia Sites and enforce policies.
- This Privacy Policy does not apply to all sites and services run by the Wikimedia Foundation, such as sites or services that have their own privacy policy (like the Wikimedia Shop) or sites or services run by third parties (like third-party developer projects on Wikimedia Cloud Services).
- As part of our commitment to education and research around the world, we occasionally release public information and aggregated or non-personal information to the general public through data dumps and data sets.
- For the protection of the Wikimedia Foundation and other users, if you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, you may not use the Wikimedia Sites.

ברוכים הבאים!
קרן ויקימדיה היא ארגון ללא מטרות רווח שמתפעל אתרי שיתוף ידע חופשיים, למשל ויקיפדיה, ויקישיתוף וויקימילון.
מדיניות זו מסבירה על הדרך בה אנחנו אוספים מידע עליכם, משתמשים בו ומשתפים אותו.
- אנחנו אוספים מעט מאוד מידע אישי עליכם.
- איננו מאפשרים לצדדים שלישיים שימוש במידע שלכם או מוכרים אותו.
בשימוש באתרי ויקימדיה אתם מסכימים למדיניות זו.
בבסיס פעולת תנועת ויקימדיה מושתת רעיון פשוט אך עוצמתי: אנחנו יכולים לעשות יחדיו יותר משיכול לעשות כל אחד מאיתנו לבדו. איננו יכולים לעבוד יחד בלי לאסוף מידע אודות המשתמשים שלנו, לשתפו ולנתחו, מפני שאנחנו מחפשים כל העת דרכים לעשות את אתרי ויקימדיה שמישים, בטוחים ומועילים יותר.
אנחנו מאמינים שאיסוף מידע ושימוש בו חייבים להיעשות בשקיפות. מדיניות פרטיות זו מסבירה על הדרך בה קרן ויקימדיה - העמותה המארחת את אתרי ויקימדיה, למשל את ויקיפדיה - אוספת מידע שאנחנו מקבלים מכם במהלך השימוש באתרי ויקימדיה, משתמשת בו ומשתפת אותו. חשוב להבין שבשימוש באתר מאתרי הקרן הנכם מסכימים לאיסוף מידע זה, להעברתו, לעיבודו, לאחסונו, לחשיפתו ולשימוש בו כמפורט במדיניות זו. לכן חשוב לקרוא היטב את המדיניות.
אנחנו מאמינים שאינכם צריכים לספק מידע אישי כדי להשתתף בקבוצת המידע החופשי. אינכם צריכים לחשוף את שמכם האמיתי, כתובתכם, או תאריך הלידה שלכם כדי ליצור חשבון או לתרום לאתרי ויקימדיה.
איננו מוכרים את המידע האישי שלכם או משכירים אותו, וגם לא נותנים אותו לאחרים כדי שימכרו לכם משהו. אנחנו משתמשים בו כדי למצוא דרכים לעשות את אתרי ויקימדיה למושכים ולנוחים יותר, כדי לראות אילו רעיונות עובדים, וכדי לעשות את הלמידה ואת התרומה למהנות. בקיצור: אנחנו משתמשים במידע הזה כדי להפוך את אתרי ויקימדיה לטובים יותר – עבורכם.
אחרי הכול, מדובר באנשים כמוך, אלופי הידע החופשי, המאפשרים לאתרי ויקימדיה לא רק להתקיים, אלא אף לגדול ולשגשג.
הגדרות
We recognize that only a minority of you are familiar with technical terms like "tracking pixels" and "cookies" used in the Privacy Policy.
Whether you are brand new to privacy terminology or you are an expert who just wants a refresher, you might find our Glossary of Key Terms helpful.
היות וכולם (לא רק עורכי דין) ראויים להבין בקלות כיצד ומדוע המידע שלהם נאסף ונעשה בו שימוש, אנו משתמשים בשפה קלה במקום במונחים מסובכים יותר לאורך אמנה זו. כדי לעזור לכם להבין מונחים מרכזיים מסויימים, הנה טבלה של התרגומים:
| When we say... | ...we mean: |
|---|---|
| "the Wikimedia Foundation" / "the Foundation" / "we" / "us" / "our" | The Wikimedia Foundation, Inc., the non-profit organization that operates the Wikimedia Sites. |
| "Wikimedia Sites" / "our services" | Wikimedia websites and services (regardless of language), including our main projects, such as Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons, as well as mobile applications, Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), emails, and notifications; excluding, however, sites and services listed in the "What This Privacy Policy Does Not Cover" section below. |
| "you" / "your" / "me" | You, regardless of whether you are an individual, group, or organization, and regardless of whether you are using the Wikimedia Sites or our services on behalf of yourself or someone else. |
| "this Policy" / "this Privacy Policy" | This document, entitled the "Wikimedia Foundation Privacy Policy". |
| "contributions" | Content you add or changes you make to any Wikimedia Sites. |
| "Personal information" | Information you provide us or information we collect that could be used to personally identify you. To be clear, while we do not necessarily collect all of the following types of information, we consider at least the following to be "personal information" if it is otherwise nonpublic and can be used to identify you:
|
| "third party" / "third parties" | Individuals, entities, websites, services, products, and applications that are not controlled, managed, or operated by the Wikimedia Foundation. This includes other Wikimedia users and independent organizations or groups who help promote the Wikimedia movement such as Wikimedia chapters, thematic organizations, and user groups as well as volunteers, employees, directors, officers, grant recipients, and contractors of those organizations or groups. |
מה מדיניות הפרטיות הזו מכסה ואיננה מכסה
למעט מה שיוסבר להלן, אמנת פרטיות זו חלה על הטיפול והאיסוף של המידע לגביך שאנו משיגים כתוצאה משימושך בכל אחד מאתרי ויקימדיה. אמנה זו חלה גם על כל מידע שאנו מקבלים מהשותפים שלנו או מצד שלישי. כדי להבין יותר על מה אמנת פרטיות זו מכסה, ראו בבקשה להלן.
דוגמות למה שמדיניות הפרטיות הזו מכסה
|
|---|
|
למען השקיפות, מדיניות הפרטיות הזו מכסה, בלי קשר לשפה:
|
אמנת פרטיות זו אינה עוסקת בסיטואציות שבהן אנו עשויים לאסוף ולעבד מידע. לדוגמה, כמה שימושים יכולים להיות מכוסים ע"י אמנות פרטיות נפרדות (כגון אלה של חנות ויקימדיה) או של אתרים או שרתים המורצים על ידי צד שלישי (כגון מיזמי המפתחים של צד שלישי במעבדות ויקימדיה). כדי להבין יותר על מה אמנת הפרטיות הזו לא מכסה, ראו להלן.
More on what the Wikimedia Foundation Privacy Policy does not cover
|
|---|
|
This section is part of the Privacy Policy and is meant to explain in detail which situations are not covered by our Privacy Policy.
Sometimes, volunteers may place a data-collecting tool, such as a script, gadget, tracking pixel, or share button, on a Wikimedia Site without our knowledge. This Policy does not cover how third parties handle the information they receive as a result of such a tool. If you come across such a third-party tool, and you believe it violates this Policy, you can remove the tool yourself, or report it to privacy[at]wikimedia.org so we can investigate. |
Where community policies govern information, such as the CheckUser policy, the relevant community may add to the rules and obligations set out in this Policy. However, they are not permitted to create new exceptions or otherwise reduce the protections offered by this Policy.
שימוש במידע
סוגים של מידע שאנו מקבלים ממך, איך אנו מקבלים אותו, ואיך אנו משתמשים בו
תרומותיך הציבוריות
Whatever you post on Wikimedia Sites can be seen and used by everyone.
כאשר אתם תורמים לאתר ויקימדיה מסויים, ובכלל זה בדף שיחה או בדף משתמש, אתה יוצר תיעוד נצחי וציבורי של כל פיסת תוכן שנוספת, מועברת או משתנית. היסטוריית הגרסות תראה את זמן התרומה או המחיקה שלכם, וכן את שם המשתמש שלכם (אם הינכם מחוברים) או את כתובת ה־IP שלכן (אם אינכם מחוברים). ייתכן שנשתמש בתרומותיכם הציבוריות, כשלעצמן או לצד תרומות של אנשים אחרים, כדי ליצור תכונה או תוצרים הקשורים לנתונים עבורכם, או כדי ללמוד על השימוש באתרי ויקימדיה, כפי שמוסבר בהמשך בסעיף איך אנחנו משתמשים במידע שאנחנו מקבלים ממך?"
Publicly Visible Information
|
|---|
|
כל עוד אמנה זו לא אומרת אחרת, עליך להניח כי המידע שאתה תורם באתרי ויקימדיה, כולל מידע אישי, הוא גלוי לציבור וניתן למוצאו בעזרת מנועי חיפוש. כמו רוב הדברים באינטרנט, כל דבר שהינך משתף יכול להיות מועתק ומופץ מחדש ברחבי האינטרנט ע"י אנשים אחרים. אנא אל תחלוקו מידע שאינכם רוצים שיהיה ציבורי לעד, כגון גילוי שמכם האמיתי או מקום מגוריכם בתרומות שלכם. You should be aware that specific data made public by you or aggregated data that is made public by us can be used by anyone for analysis and to infer further information, such as which country a user is from, political affiliation and gender. |
מידע על החשבון והרשמה
You do not need to create an account to use any Wikimedia Site.
If you do create an account, you do not need to give us your name or email address (although you can if you choose to, such as for the "Email this user" feature for example).
If you do not create an account, your contributions will be publicly attributed to your IP address.
רוצה ליצור חשבון? נהדר! לא רוצה ליצור חשבון? לא נורא!
אינכם חייבים ליצור חשבון כדי לקרוא או לתרום לאתרי ויקימדיה, חוץ מבמקרים נדירים. מאידך, אם תתרמו מבלי להתחבר, תרומתכם תיוחס באופן גלוי לכתובת ה־IP המשויכת למכשיר שלכם.
אם ברצונכם ליצור חשבון משתמש רגיל, ברוב המקרים יידרשו רק שם משתמש וסיסמה. עם זאת, אם לא תספקו כתובת דוא"ל, לא נוכל לשחזר את הסיסמה שלכם במקרה שתשכחוה.
More on Usernames
|
|---|
|
Your username will be publicly visible, so please be careful about revealing your real name or other Personal Information in your username. Your password is only used to verify that the account is yours. Your IP address is also automatically submitted to us, and we record it temporarily. This is to protect Wikimedia users and project content; in the event of abuse, IP addresses may be associated with usernames as part of an investigation. No other Personal Information is required: no name, no email address, no date of birth, and no credit card information. מרגע שחשבון נוצר, לא ניתן למחוק אותו לחלוטין, אך לרוב יהיה ניתן להסתיר את המידע שכתבתם בדף המשתמש. הסיבה לכך שלא ניתן למחוק חשבון היא שתרומותיך לציבור חייבות להיות מקושרות ליוצרן (שזה אתם). בנסיבות מסוימות, קהילות ויקימדיה יכולות לסייע למשתמשים בהסרת מידע הקשור לחשבונם מהמיזמים. |
כדי להבין טוב יותר את הנתונים הדמוגרפיים של המשתמשים שלנו, כדי להתאים את השירותים למיקום, וכדי למצוא דרכים לשפר את שירותינו, נוכל לבקש מכם מידע דמוגרפי נוסף על עצמך, למשל מין או גיל. אנחנו נספר לכם אם המידע יהיה ציבורי או פרטי, כך שתוכלו להחליט באופן מודע אם ברצונכם לספק לנו אותו. מסירת מידע שכזה לעולם אינה חובה. לא רוצים – לא צריכים.
מידע על המיקום
GPS ושירותי מיקום אחרים
Some features we offer work better if we know what area you are in.
If you consent, we can use GPS (and other technologies commonly used to determine location) to show you more relevant content. We keep information obtained by these technologies confidential, except as provided in this Policy. You can learn more by checking out the list of examples of how we use these technologies in our FAQ.
Metadata
Sometimes, we automatically receive location data from your device. For example, if you want to upload a photo on the Wikimedia Commons mobile app, we may receive metadata, such as the place and time you took the photo, automatically from your device. Please be aware that, unlike location information collected using GPS signals described above, the default setting on your mobile device typically includes the metadata in your photo or video upload to the Wikimedia Sites. If you do not want metadata sent to us and made public at the time of your upload, please change your settings on your device.
כתובות IP
Finally, when you visit any Wikimedia Site, we automatically receive the IP address of the device (or your proxy server) you are using to access the Internet, which could be used to infer your geographical location.
מידע הקשור לשימושך באתרי ויקימדיה
We use certain technologies to collect information about how you use Wikimedia Sites.
Like other websites, we receive some information about you automatically when you visit the Wikimedia Sites.
We also use a variety of commonly-used technologies, like cookies, to collect information regarding how you use the Wikimedia Sites, make our services safer and easier to use, and to help create a better and more customizable experience for you.
ברצוננו לשפר את הנאתכם מאתרי ויקימדיה, ויקַל עלינו אם נדע יותר על הדרך בה אתם משתמשים בהם. למשל: באיזו תדירות אתם מבקרים באתרי ויקימדיה? מה אהבתם בהם? מה עזר לכם? איך אתם מגיעים אליהם? ואם נסביר יותר על תכונה מסוימת – האם לדעתכם תשתמשו בה? אנחנו מעוניינים שאמנת מדיניות זו ושיטות העבודה שלנו ישקפו את ערכי הקהילה. מסיבה זו, אנחנו שורמים את המידע הקשור לשימוש באתרי ויקימדיה סודי, אלא אם נאמר אחרת במפורש באמנה זו.
אנו רוצים לשפר את אתרי ויקימדיה עבורך על ידי למידע נוסף על אופן השימוש בהם. דוגמאות לכך עשויות לכלול באיזו תדירות אתה מבקר באתרי ויקימדיה, מה אתה אוהב, מה אתה מוצא מועיל, כיצד אתה מגיע לאתרי ויקימדיה, והאם תשתמש בתכונה מועילה יותר אם נסביר זאת אחרת. אנו רוצים גם שמדיניות זו ושיטות העבודה שלנו ישקפו את ערכי הקהילה שלנו. מסיבה זו, אנו שומרים על מידע הקשור לשימוש שלך באתרי ויקימדיה בסודיות, למעט כפי שנקבע במדיניות זו.
מידע שאנו מקבלים באופן אוטומטי
Because of how browsers work, we receive some information automatically when you visit the Wikimedia Sites. This includes when you use an online tool on a third-party site that loads information coming from the Wikimedia Sites. This information includes the type of device you are using (possibly including unique device identification numbers, for some beta versions of our mobile applications), the type and version of your browser, your browser's language preference, the type and version of your device's operating system, in some cases the name of your internet service provider or mobile carrier, the website that referred you to the Wikimedia Sites, which pages you request and visit, and the date and time of each request you make to the Wikimedia Sites.
Put simply, we use this information to enhance your experience with Wikimedia Sites. For example, we use this information to administer the sites, provide greater security, and fight vandalism; optimize mobile applications, customize content and set language preferences, test features to see what works, and improve performance; understand how users interact with the Wikimedia Sites, track and study use of various features, gain understanding about the demographics of the different Wikimedia Sites, and analyze trends.
מידע שאנו אוספים
We use a variety of commonly-used technologies, like cookies, to understand how you use the Wikimedia Sites, make our services safer and easier to use, and to help create a better and more customizable experience for you.
We actively collect some types of information with a variety of commonly-used technologies. These generally include tracking pixels, JavaScript, and a variety of "locally stored data" technologies, such as cookies and local storage. These types of technologies may also be used in online tools on a third-party site that loads information from the Wikimedia Sites. We realize that some of these technologies do not have the best reputation in town and can be used for less-than-noble purposes. So we want to be as clear as we can about why we use these methods and the type of information we collect with them.
Depending on which technology we use, locally stored data may include text, Personal Information (like your IP address), and information about your use of the Wikimedia Sites (like your username or the time of your visit). See below for more information.
We use this information to make your experience with the Wikimedia Sites safer and better, to gain a greater understanding of user preferences and their interaction with the Wikimedia Sites, and to generally improve our services. We will never use third-party cookies, unless we get your permission to do so. If you ever come across a third-party data collection tool that has not been authorized by you (such as one that may have been mistakenly placed by another user or administrator), please report it to us at privacy@wikimedia.org.

Want to know even more? You can read more about some of the specific cookies we use, when they expire, and what we use them for in our FAQ.
We believe this data collection helps improve your user experience, but you may remove or disable some or all locally stored data through your browser settings, depending on your browser. You can learn more about some options you have in our FAQ. While locally stored data may not be necessary to use our sites, some features will not function properly if you disable locally stored data.
While the examples above concerning information about you collected through the use of data collection tools are kept confidential in accordance with this Policy, please note that some information about the actions taken by your username is made publicly available through public logs alongside actions taken by other users. For example, a public log may include the date your account was created on a Wikimedia Site along with the dates that other accounts were created on a Wikimedia Site.

Location information
GPS & Other Location Technologies
As stated above, we can use commonly-used location technologies to show you more relevant content. For example, our mobile apps can identify articles from the Wikimedia sites about points of interest near your location. As a reminder, you can consent to and/or deactivate our access to these location technologies at any time for example through the native OS functionalities on your mobile device, and still use the Wikimedia Sites.
Metadata
As stated above, we may automatically receive location data from your device. For example, if you upload a photo using the Wikimedia Commons mobile app, please be aware that the default setting on your mobile device typically results in the metadata associated with your photo being included in the upload. As a reminder, if you do not want metadata sent to us and made public at the time of your upload, please change your settings on your device.
IP Addresses
When you visit any Wikimedia Site, we automatically receive the IP address of the device (or your proxy server) you are using to access the Internet, which could be used to infer your geographical location. We keep IP addresses confidential, except as provided in this Policy. If you are visiting Wikimedia Sites with your mobile device, we may use your IP address to provide anonymized or aggregated information to service providers regarding the volume of usage in certain areas.
We use this location information to make your experience with the Wikimedia Sites safer and better, to gain a greater understanding of user preferences and their interaction with the Wikimedia Sites, and to generally improve our services. For example, we use this information to provide greater security, optimize mobile applications, and learn how to expand and better support Wikimedia communities. We also use Personal Information in the manner described in the sections of this Policy titled "For Legal Reasons" and "To Protect You, Ourselves & Others."
שיתוף
מתי אנו עשויים לשתף את המידע עליך?
We use and share your Personal Information when you give us specific permission to do so, for legal reasons, and in the other circumstances described below.
עם אישורך
We share your Personal Information for a particular purpose, if you agree. For example, if you receive a scholarship and we ask permission to share your Personal Information with a local chapter. You can find more information in the list of examples in our FAQ.
למטרות חוקיות
We will disclose your Personal Information to public authorities or other persons in response to an official legal process only if we believe it to be legally valid. See also our Requests for user information procedures and guidelines. We will notify you of such requests when possible. We do so to further our legitimate interest and/or to comply with our legal obligations.
We will access, use, preserve, and/or disclose your Personal Information if we reasonably believe it necessary to satisfy a valid and legally enforceable warrant, subpoena, court order, law or regulation, or other judicial or administrative order. However, if we believe that a particular request for disclosure of a user's information is legally invalid or an abuse of the legal system and the affected user does not intend to oppose the disclosure themselves, we will try our best to fight it. We are committed to notifying you via email at least ten (10) calendar days, when possible, before we disclose your Personal Information in response to a legal demand. However, we may only provide notice if we are not legally restrained from contacting you, there is no credible threat to life or limb that is created or increased by disclosing the request, and you have provided us with an email address.
Nothing in this Privacy Policy is intended to limit any legal objections or defenses you may have to a third-party's request (whether it be civil, criminal, or governmental) to disclose your Personal Information. We recommend seeking the advice of legal counsel immediately if such a request is made involving you.

אם הארגון יועבר לבעלות אחרת (בהחלט לא סביר!)
In the unlikely event that the ownership of the Foundation changes, we will provide you 30 days' notice before any Personal Information is transferred to the new owners or becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
In the extremely unlikely event that ownership of all or substantially all of the Foundation changes, or we go through a reorganization (such as a merger, consolidation, or acquisition), consistent with our legitimate interest, we will continue to keep your Personal Information confidential, except as provided in this Policy, and provide notice to you via the Wikimedia Sites and a notification on WikimediaAnnounce-L or similar mailing list at least thirty (30) calendar days before any Personal Information is transferred or becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
כדי להגן עליך, עלינו ועל אחרים
We, or users with certain administrative rights, use and disclose Personal Information that is reasonably necessary to:
- enforce or investigate potential violations of the Wikimedia Foundation or community-based policies;
- protect our organization, infrastructure, employees, contractors, or the public; or
- prevent imminent or serious bodily harm or death to a person.
We do so to manage our relationship with you, to further our legitimate interest, and/or to comply with our legal obligations.
We, or particular users with certain administrative rights as described below, need to use and share your Personal Information if it is reasonably believed to be necessary to enforce or investigate potential violations of our Terms of Use, this Privacy Policy, or any Wikimedia Foundation or user community-based policies. We may also need to access and share Personal Information to investigate and defend ourselves against legal threats or actions.
Wikimedia Sites are collaborative, with users writing most of the policies and selecting from amongst themselves people to hold certain administrative rights. These rights may include access to limited amounts of otherwise nonpublic information about recent contributions and activity by other users. They use this access to help protect against vandalism and abuse, fight harassment of other users, and generally try to minimize disruptive behavior on the Wikimedia Sites. These various user-selected administrative groups have their own privacy and confidentiality guidelines, but all such groups are supposed to agree to follow our Access to nonpublic personal data policy. These user-selected administrative groups are accountable to other users through checks and balances: users are selected through a community-driven process and overseen by their peers through a logged history of their actions. However, the legal names of these users are not known to the Wikimedia Foundation.
We hope that this never comes up, but we may disclose your Personal Information if we believe that it is reasonably necessary to prevent imminent and serious bodily harm or death to a person, or to protect our organization, employees, contractors, users, or the public. We may also disclose your Personal Information if we reasonably believe it necessary to detect, prevent, or otherwise assess and address potential spam, malware, fraud, abuse, unlawful activity, and security or technical concerns. (Check out the list of examples in our FAQ for more information.)
לספקי השירות שלנו
We disclose Personal Information to our third-party service providers or contractors to help run or improve the Wikimedia Sites and provide services in support of our mission.
קשה ככל שאנו מנסים, איננו מסוגלים לעשות הכול. כך שלעתים אנו משתמשים בשירות של צד שלישי או קבלנים. אנו מחפשים להציב דרישות, כגון הסכמי סודיות, כדי לעזור לוודא שמספקי שירותים אלו מטפלים במידע שלכם בתיאום עם עקרונותיה של אמנה זו. (ראה את רשימת הדוגמאות ב - FAQ ).
If you are visiting Wikimedia Sites with your mobile device, we use your IP address to provide anonymized or aggregated information to service providers regarding the volume of usage in certain areas.
Some of our service providers ask us to post links to their privacy policies; a list of these service providers and links to their policies can be found on this page.
להבין ולהתנסות
- We give volunteer developers and researchers access to systems that contain your Personal Information to allow them to protect, develop, and contribute to the Wikimedia Sites.
- We also share non-Personal Information or aggregated information with third parties interested in studying the Wikimedia Sites.
- When we share Personal Information with third parties for these purposes, we put reasonable technical and contractual protections in place to protect your Personal Information consistent with this Policy and our legitimate interest.
The open-source software that powers the Wikimedia Sites depends on the contributions of volunteer software developers, who spend time writing and testing code to help it improve and evolve with our users' needs. To facilitate their work, we give some developers limited access to systems that contain your Personal Information, but only as reasonably necessary for them to develop and contribute to the Wikimedia Sites.
Similarly, we share non-Personal Information or aggregated information with researchers, scholars, academics, and other interested third parties who wish to study the Wikimedia Sites. Sharing this Personal Information helps them understand usage, viewing, and demographics statistics and patterns. They then can share their findings with us and our users so that we can all better understand and improve the Wikimedia Sites.
When we give access to Personal Information to third-party developers or researchers, we put requirements, such as reasonable technical and contractual protections, in place to help ensure that these service providers treat your Personal Information consistently with the principles of this Policy and in accordance with our instructions. If these developers or researchers later publish their work or findings, we ask that they not disclose your Personal Information. Please note that, despite the obligations we impose on developers and researchers, we cannot guarantee that they will abide by our agreement, nor do we guarantee that we will regularly screen or audit their projects. (You can learn more about re-identification in our FAQ.)
בגלל שהפכת אותו לציבורי
Information that you post is public and can be seen and used by everyone.
Any information you post publicly on the Wikimedia Sites is just that – public. For example, if you put your mailing address on your talk page, that is public, and not specifically protected by this Policy. And if you edit without registering or logging into your account, your IP address will be seen publicly. Please think carefully about your desired level of privacy before you disclose Personal Information on your user page or elsewhere.
הגנה
איך אנחנו מגינים על המידע עליך?
We use a variety of physical and technical measures, policies, and procedures to help protect your Personal Information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.
We strive to protect your Personal Information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. We use a variety of physical and technical measures, policies, and procedures (such as access control procedures, network firewalls, and physical security) designed to protect our systems and your Personal Information. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as completely secure data transmission or storage, so we cannot guarantee that our security will not be breached (by technical measures or through violation of our policies and procedures).
We will never ask for your password by email (but may send you a temporary password via email if you have requested a password reset). If you ever receive an email that requests your password, please let us know by sending it to privacy@wikimedia.org, so we can investigate the source of the email.
לכמה זמן אנו שומרים מידע עליך?
Except as otherwise stated in this Policy, we only keep your Personal Information as long as necessary to maintain, understand and improve the Wikimedia Sites or to comply with applicable law.
Once we receive Personal Information from you, we keep it for the shortest possible time that is consistent with the maintenance, understanding, and improvement of the Wikimedia Sites, and our obligations under applicable law. In most instances, Personal Information is deleted, aggregated or de-identified after 90 days. Non-Personal Information may be retained indefinitely as appropriate. (Check out the list of examples in our FAQ.)
Please remember that when you make a contribution to any Wikimedia Site, the page history will show when your contribution was made, your username (if you are signed in), or your IP address (if you edit while not logged in). The transparency of the projects' contribution and revision histories is critical to their efficacy and trustworthiness. To learn more about our data retention practices, see our data retention guidelines.
Your rights
