# What information do we collect?
|
||||
|

- **Basic account information:** When creating an account on one of our services you may be asked to enter in a username and password. You may also enter additional information into optional fields such as: email, display name, profile picture, banner image, matrix ID, location, birthday, language, and biography. Currently [as of February 10, 2024], all of the additional custom fields are always listed publicly; your password and email is kept private.

- **Posts, comments, subscribing, voting, reactions, and other public information:** When you perform an action on one of our services such as create or edit a post, comment, or vote, the date and time the action is taken at is stored as well as the content and any media attachments on them such as pictures and videos. All of this is publicly available information due to the nature of federation as they are delivered to the communities they are posted on and any instance federated with that community using the activitypub protocol. This means they are delivered to many different servers and copies of them are stored there.
|
||||
- **Direct messages:** All direct messages sent are unencrypted and may be delivered to other servers if the user you are sending a message to is on a service other than one provided by us. We make a good faith effort to limit the access to direct messages to only authorized persons butother servers may fail to do so so it is important to review who and what service you are sending messages to. Keep in mind that operators of our services and any receiving services may view direct messages and that recipients may screenshot, copy, or otherwise re-share them so it is recommended to not share any sensitive information.
|
||||
- **IPs and other metadata:** When you log in, we may record the IP address you logged in from, the time and date you logged in at, as well as the name of your browser application. We also have server logs which include the IP address of every request to our server.
