Community Archive Privacy Policy

We are committed to preserving the public history of Twitter conversations while respecting your privacy. This policy outlines how we handle your data and the options available to you.

Data Collection and Usage

The information we collect from your Twitter archive includes:

1. Profile information
2. Tweets
3. Likes
4. Followers/following lists

We do not access or upload:

• Direct messages
• Email addresses
• Deleted tweets

Public Database and API

By default, your uploaded archive becomes part of our public database and API. This means:

• Your tweets and likes will be visible to anyone.
• Researchers, developers, and other users can access and analyze this data.
• This data may be used for various purposes, including digital anthropology research and fine-tuning language models.

API docs & instructions for downloading the data are in the GitHub repo.

Important Considerations

• Data Accessibility: While your tweets are already public on Twitter, our platform makes them more easily accessible to a wider audience.
• Potential Risks: Be aware that malicious actors could potentially use this data to make inferences about your psychology or for targeted phishing attempts.

Privacy Options

We offer several options to give you more control over your data:

1. Exclude Likes: You can opt to leave out your likes when uploading your archive.
2. Date Filtering: You can choose to make only a specific date range of your archive public.
3. Future Controls: We plan to implement more granular permission settings in the future, such as allowing access to mutuals or specific individuals.
