+## Team statement
+
+**GIMP, as a software and as a community of developers, does not, in any
+way, collect, transmit, share or use any Personal Data.**
+
+## No trackers, no ads, no data share
+
+GIMP is a community-developed Free Software. The community does not
+condone usage of private data of others so our software does not gather
+or send data.
+
+This website is mostly static, it does not contain any tracker and in
+particular no third-party trackers.
+The website does not contain advertisements either.
+
+The software does not contain advertisements or trackers either.
+
+## Caveats
+
+* GIMP is able to load or save files on remote access (for some
+  protocols and platforms). If you choose to load or save a remote file,
+  your IP or other private data might be shared as part of the normal
+  connection flow for the given protocol. This is out of our control and
+  it is up to you to decide whether you trust a remote host.
+
+* When reading the online version of the User Manual within GIMP, manual
+  contents is requested through `HTTPS` connections.
+
+* Windows and macOS packages are built with an "update check" option to
+  verify, through an `HTTPS` connection, if new versions have been
+  released, no more than once a week. Checking for new releases is the
+  only purpose and nothing else is done.
+
+* GIMP is Free Software and therefore may be packaged by other people,
+  who may include additional software or modify the source code. We do
+  not vouch for these third-party packages and cannot tell you what they
+  contain and what they do regarding your privacy. The official packages
+  are explicitly listed in our [download
+  page](https://www.gimp.org/downloads/).
