TL;DR (Too Long; Didn't Read)
We do not use tracking cookies. We do not sell your data. We do not require you to create an account to explore our knowledge hubs.
1. Introduction
Welcome to WhatWhy.org, a project managed by the Nears.me Global Directory Network. We believe that accessing knowledge should not come at the cost of your privacy.
This policy outlines the minimal data practices we employ to keep this site running.
2. Information We Collect
Because we operate as a static website, our data collection is extremely limited:
- No Personal Accounts: You cannot sign up, so we do not store names, passwords, or phone numbers.
- No Tracking Cookies: We do not use third-party advertising pixels (like Facebook Pixel) or invasive analytics that track you across the web.
- Server Logs: Like almost all websites, our hosting provider may temporarily log basic technical information (IP address, browser type) for security and debugging purposes. This data is not linked to your identity.
3. Third-Party Links
Our subdomains (e.g., animals.whatwhy.org) and listings may contain links to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those external sites. We encourage you to review their policies if you leave our platform.
4. Children's Privacy
Our content is designed to be educational and safe for all ages. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy as our network grows. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
