WhatDoTheyCollect is dedicated to making privacy policies transparent and accessible. We believe everyone has the right to understand how their personal data is being collected, used, and shared by the websites and services they use.
In an era where privacy policies are often lengthy, complex, and buried in legal jargon, we provide clear, concise summaries that help you make informed decisions about your digital privacy.
We systematically review privacy policies from popular websites and services.
We break down complex legal language into easy-to-understand summaries.
We empower users with knowledge to make informed privacy decisions.
Our privacy policy summaries are generated using OpenAI GPT, a large language model AI. We feed each company's privacy policy text into the AI, which reads and interprets the document and produces a structured summary of key data practices, risk factors, and user rights.
We believe transparency about this process is important. AI analysis offers a consistent, scalable way to cover hundreds of privacy policies — but it has real limitations:
We work continuously to improve the quality and accuracy of our analyses. If you spot an error, please let us know.
As advocates for digital privacy, we practice what we preach. We collect minimal data necessary to operate our service, use privacy-respecting analytics, and are transparent about our own data practices.
We never sell user data, track users across websites, or engage in practices that compromise your privacy. Our goal is to be a trusted resource that respects your digital rights.
