; <big>Community members</big>
: The Wikimedia Sites are collaborative labors of love that are constantly maintained and updated by a global community of volunteers.
:* '''Administrative volunteers''', such as [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CheckUser|CheckUsers]] or [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Stewards|Stewards]]. These are volunteers who enforce Wikimedia Site policies and ensure the safety of the Wikimedia Sites. When these administrators access Personal Information that is nonpublic, they are required to comply with our [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Access to nonpublic information policy|Access to Nonpublic Information Policy]], as well as other, tool-specific policies.
:* '''Tool providers'''
:* '''Other users'''. We provide several tools that allow users to communicate with each other. The communications may be covered by this Policy while they pass through our systems, but the users who receive these communications, and what they do with the communications once they receive them, are not covered by this Policy. Examples include:

:* '''Mobile applications provided by other organizations or individuals'''. These organizations or individuals may receive information from you if you use those applications to access the Wikimedia Sites or Wikimedia Site content. They are governed by their own privacy policies.
:Sometimes, volunteers may place a data-collecting tool, such as a script, gadget, tracking pixel, or share button, on a Wikimedia Site without our knowledge. This Policy does not cover how third parties handle the information they receive as a result of such a tool. If you come across such a third-party tool, and you believe it violates this Policy, you can remove the tool yourself, or report it to privacy[at]wikimedia.org so we can investigate.
