If you translate the website for us, the translations you review are marked with your volunteer ID, such as DS-K7Q4-M9XJ, never your name. They keep that ID after you stop volunteering, even if your record is erased, so we can tell which translations a person has checked.
The portal also keeps a history of what was done in it and when, such as an application accepted or an hour approved. The history holds volunteer IDs, never names or anything you wrote, and it stays after a record is erased.
To stop people guessing passwords or sending floods of applications, the portal counts attempts from each internet connection and to each email address. The counts hold your connection's internet address and a scrambled form of the email address, and are deleted after at most a day.
Volunteer records are kept in a database of their own, apart from the rest of the website, and staff who look after the website cannot see them from its admin pages.

Like almost every website, our web server records each request it receives in its logs: the internet address it came from, the page asked for, the time and the name of the browser. We use these logs only to keep the site secure and working, for example to block attacks, and they are deleted after 7 days. We may change this period at any time and for any reason. We will not notify visitors separately when we do; the period in this policy, as last updated, is the one that applies.
When someone tries to sign in to our admin pages, which only our staff use, we record the internet address, the browser's name, the username tried and the time, so we can block password guessing. We delete these records after 30 days.
