Take a look at this.

Now; as a Wiki goes, that is some of the most important information. Why is it missing? No idea. Should it be there? Probably.

Can anyone fix it?

If you're interested, the privacy information can be found here: http://yoyogames.com/help/privacy

However, the Sandbox links to the page with no information, and has Google ads. I'm pretty sure Google requires you to have a privacy policy linked to from every page their ads are shown. In fact, it looks like this very forum may be in the same boat. Edit: and BTW, the privacy policy linked above doesn't cover the required information for Google ads.

And I sure hope their servers aren't listed in the UK (even though I'm pretty sure they are), wasn't there a law that came in recently in the UK requiring a privacy policy for every site that uses tracking cookies of any kind (which is pretty much any site that uses cookies)?

Nice spotting, roytheshort, hopefully a YYG employee checks this :D

Hardly among the "most important" information. Especially when the YYG wiki lacks so much basic content. But I agree it should have one... if/when the wiki re-opens.

I can think of a good candidate. What's his name... roy something?

OK... it's unanimous. roytheshort will draft a privacy policy.

Have it on my desk by close of business tomorrow.

It's probably more important than just the wiki, considering the link on the sandbox links to that page.

I would also expect a privacy policy page is not open to editing on the wiki. Wiki's usually have several pages not open to public editing, for setting ground rules and for legal information that has to stay exactly how the lawyers drafted it (such as a privacy policy).

This has now been resolved. Thanks for bringing it up!

You may want to add a link to the privacy policy here on the forum, since Google requires it on every page that shows their ads.

Agreed, but until I am at work to discuss the matter it has to wait as from here I can do nothing about it...
