Wiki58:Privacy policy
This page describes the technical privacy settings of wiki58 at https://local58.wiki.
Accounts and contributions
Reading is public. Editing requires an account created by an administrator. MediaWiki stores account names, password hashes, account settings, contributions, and revision history in the wiki database. Published edits and their account attribution are publicly visible in page histories. Revision history is retained unless administrators remove or suppress it; removing visible text does not automatically remove earlier revisions. Do not publish private or sensitive information in pages, edit summaries, or user talk pages.
Browser storage
MediaWiki uses first-party cookies for login sessions, account identification, and short-lived database consistency after changes. Login cookies are restricted to HTTPS, use HttpOnly and SameSite=Lax, and have session or approximately 30-day lifetimes depending on the cookie. Selecting “Keep me logged in” can create additional persistent authentication cookies.
MediaWiki may cache its JavaScript modules in browser local storage and store appearance preferences when you use those controls. You can clear this data in your browser settings. Clearing login cookies signs you out. No optional analytics, advertising tags, third-party embeds, or MediaWiki pingback telemetry are configured in this installation.
Server records
The web server records request metadata, including IP addresses, requested URLs, timestamps, and response status, in access logs. Error logs may record diagnostic request information. Administrators with server access can access these records and the wiki database. Wiki accounts, edits, logs, and backups have separate retention needs; no automatic deletion of contribution history is promised here.
Current feature limits and contact
Email and file uploads are disabled. For account or privacy questions, contact Admin or consult the administrator list. User talk pages are public; do not send sensitive personal information through them.
