Consumer Action Taskforce:Privacy policy

Nearly every webpage, project, or API hosted on the internet and intended for an end-user consumer has a Privacy Policy.

Equally, every time you visit a website, you're exchanging some of your information with the host of that website; regardless of how "privacy friendly" they advertise themselves to be, in order to simply load the webpage itself.
