Editing My wiki:Privacy policy

Musician Wiki is committed to protecting the privacy of its users and contributors. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information.

===Automatically Collected Information===
Like most websites, our servers may automatically log certain technical information when you visit, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, and pages visited. This information is used for site maintenance, security, and aggregate statistical analysis only.
