Duela Wiki:Privacy policy

Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how personal data is processed when using the Duela Wiki.

The Duela Wiki is currently a private test and development wiki. Public account registration is not currently enabled.

Controller

The controller responsible for this website is:

Daniel Cardoso da Silva Email: 0dani.card0@gmail.com

For privacy-related requests, contact the email address above.

Hosting

This wiki is hosted on infrastructure provided by IONOS.

When visitors access the wiki, technical data may be processed by the hosting provider in order to deliver the website, maintain security, and operate the server.

This may include:

• IP address
• Date and time of access
• Requested page or file
• Browser type and version
• Operating system
• Referrer URL
• HTTP status codes
• Amount of data transferred

This technical processing is necessary to provide the website and protect it against abuse, errors, and attacks.

Legal basis

Where the General Data Protection Regulation applies, processing is based on the following legal bases:

• Article 6(1)(f) GDPR — legitimate interests in operating, securing, maintaining, and developing the wiki
• Article 6(1)(b) GDPR — where processing is necessary for user accounts or requested wiki functions
• Article 6(1)(c) GDPR — where processing is necessary to comply with legal obligations
• Article 6(1)(a) GDPR — where consent is requested for a specific optional function

Visiting the wiki

You may visit the wiki without creating an account.

When you visit the wiki, server logs and technical connection data may be processed automatically. This is necessary for the website to function.

The wiki is currently marked with a noindex setting and is not intended to be indexed by search engines during the test phase.

User accounts

Public account creation is not currently enabled.

If an account is manually created, the following data may be processed:

• Username
• Password hash
• Email address, if configured or provided
• User preferences
• Edit history
• Uploaded files
• User group memberships
• Login and session data
• Notifications and watchlist data, where enabled

Do not use a username that reveals personal information unless you are comfortable with that username being visible in edit histories and page logs.

Edits and page history

MediaWiki stores page histories.

If you edit a page while logged in, your username will usually be shown in the page history, recent changes, logs, and related wiki records.

If anonymous editing is ever enabled in the future, edits may be associated with the editor's IP address.

At the moment, anonymous editing is not enabled.

Because wikis preserve revision histories, removing information from a current page does not automatically remove it from old revisions. If personal data needs to be removed from page history, contact the controller.

Uploads

File uploads are enabled.

Uploaded files may contain visible information and hidden metadata, including file names, author data, device information, timestamps, or location metadata depending on the file.

Only upload files you have the right to upload and that do not contain private information unless you intend to publish that information.

Cookies and sessions

The wiki uses cookies and similar local storage where necessary for technical operation.

These may be used for:

• Login sessions
• Security tokens
• User preferences
• Editing functions
• Interface settings

These cookies are necessary for the wiki to function and are not used for advertising.

You can restrict or delete cookies in your browser settings. Some wiki functions may not work correctly if cookies are disabled.

Analytics and tracking

No external analytics tools are currently configured.

The wiki does not currently use Google Analytics, Matomo, advertising trackers, or similar third-party tracking tools.

If analytics are added later, this Privacy Policy should be updated before they are enabled.

Email functions

Email functions have not currently been configured.

If email functions are enabled later, the wiki may process email addresses for account recovery, notifications, confirmations, or administrative communication.

Instant Commons and external content

If Instant Commons or other external media features are enabled, some files may be loaded from Wikimedia Commons or other Wikimedia infrastructure.

When external content is loaded, technical connection data such as your IP address may be transmitted to the external provider.

CheckUser and abuse prevention

This wiki may use MediaWiki tools and extensions for abuse prevention and security.

If CheckUser is enabled and assigned to authorized administrators, it may allow limited inspection of technical data such as IP addresses and user-agent information for the purpose of investigating abuse, spam, vandalism, sockpuppeting, or security incidents.

Access to such data should be restricted to trusted administrators and used only when necessary.

Data sharing

Personal data is not sold.

Data may be shared only where necessary with:

• The hosting provider
• Technical service providers
• Administrators with appropriate permissions
• Authorities or legal recipients where legally required

Retention

Technical server logs are retained only as long as necessary for operation, security, and troubleshooting, subject to the hosting provider's settings.

Wiki page histories, user logs, and edit records may be retained indefinitely as part of normal MediaWiki operation unless removal is necessary for privacy, legal, or security reasons.

Test data may be deleted during the setup phase.

Your rights

Where the GDPR applies, you may have the following rights:

• Right of access
• Right to rectification
• Right to erasure
• Right to restriction of processing
• Right to data portability
• Right to object
• Right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
• Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

To exercise these rights, contact:

0dani.card0@gmail.com

Supervisory authority

If you are in Germany, you may contact the competent data protection supervisory authority.

For Rheinland-Pfalz, this is generally:

Der Landesbeauftragte für den Datenschutz und die Informationsfreiheit Rheinland-Pfalz

Changes to this policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated as the Duela Wiki changes.

It should be reviewed before public launch, before enabling public registration, before enabling anonymous editing, before adding analytics, and before inviting outside contributors.
