+We aren't interested in the legal headache of crafting a "Privacy Policy" that ends up confusing the average reader. Most Privacy Policies are drafted by a team of lawyers with one goal: to protect the company from its users.

 **A Note on History:**
 To keep the community as a usable archive of knowledge, we retain channel history for one year. Private message history is also retained for one year, but this is opt-out.
+//Q: Why is private message history opt-out?//
+A: Because we feel most people want to be able to get a link from a message that was sent weeks ago. Private message history enables this.
 This is our word. It's a commitment to the people who make WPLUG what it is.
