This document is mainly intended for OpenStreetMap contributors, if you are using services provided by the OSMF without contributing, section [[#Data_we_receive_automatically | Data we receive automatically]] will be most relevant for you.
As the OSMF has many legacy systems and practices that have currently not been fully reviewed and documented, it is possible that a subject of particular interest to you has not been covered yet or is inaccurately described. Please use the [[#Contact | contact information]] if you have any such questions or believe that you have found a discrepancy. As we will be updating this document regularly to reflect our better understanding of these issues, please check from time to time for updates.
OpenStreetMap developers, contributors and related companies will often use the OpenStreetMap name and logo to set up groups or services on third-party web sites. For example, there might be a Facebook page, a Google Plus page, a Slack channel, a page on Xing or LinkedIn, a Meetup group, and so on. The privacy practices of such services are outside of OSMF's control and might be located in countries with different data protection rules. Data you share on these platforms cannot, therefore, be covered by this policy. Please refer to the privacy policies of those third-party services.
* any blocks the user has received and associated messages.
* network access data (example IP addresses) for the systems and services operated by the OSMF. see [[#Data_we_receive_automatically | Data we receive automatically]] .
===Wiki, Forum and Help site accounts, Mailing lists===
Creating accounts and using the ancillary systems will store data, for example your e-mail address on these systems. You should aware that these are public systems and any contributions to the content can be read by anybody without login. Such contributions can be difficult if not unfeasible to anonymize after the fact and you should be prudent about how you use these communication channels.
===OSMF Membership Data===
You can further reduce exposure by not adding personal information to the map data (personal names and similar). Such information is in general not considered to be an useful addition to our data and you should refrain from adding it.
==Right to Object==
You have a [https://gdpr-info.eu/art-21-gdpr/ right to object] against processing based on legitimate interests of the data controller.
==Detailed Information==
If you have contributed your account will be renamed to user_''USERID'' and contributions and changeset comments will be retained with this name, diary entries and your user page will be removed. Since we do not allow anonymous edits we will non-publicly retain your email address in case you need to be contacted with respect to your contributions.
Wiki and forum accounts will be renamed to a pseudo-anonymous name, but otherwise will remain as is. You can unsubscribe yourself from any mailing lists, however you need to realize that personal copies held by the recipients of any mails you sent to the lists and the archives on lists.openstreetmap.org can not be removed.
In your request for account removal you need to identify all accounts that are affected as we do not have information on which accounts belong to which OpenStreetMap accounts..
