Privacy Policy

Your privacy is very important to us. Accordingly, we have developed this Policy in order for you to understand how we collect, use, communicate and disclose and make use of personal information. The following outlines our privacy policy.


1. Which information we collect and why

  1. We collect the IP addresses of the users visiting our website with the sole aim of measuring the amount and the origin of the traffic on the website. We only record the timestamps at which any user enters or leaves the website.
  2. We record anonymised activity of the users on the Wikipedia map. By activity we mean to request a Wikipedia article, make a query on the search bar, and zoom-in on a box. Anonymised means that, for each of the above actions, we record a timestamp and an anonymous ID associated with the IP address of the user who performed the action. No IP addresses are connected or recorded with any activity: we do not care of who is doing what. We care about which articles are displayed in sequence, because this might help us to understand the flow among concepts, and in turn allow us to make better maps.

2. Data protection

We will protect personal information by reasonable security safeguards against loss or theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use or modification.


3. Data disclosure

We might disclose the anoymized data upon request for non-commercial purposes.


4. General

We will make readily available to customers information about our policies and practices relating to the management of personal information. We are committed to conducting our business in accordance with these principles in order to ensure that the confidentiality of personal information is protected and maintained.
