<h3>Privacy Policy</h3>

<p>Users often have the legal right to know and control what information is collected about them, how such
information is stored and for how long, whether it is personally identifiable, and how it can be
expunged. Including a statement that addresses all such privacy concerns is consequently an important
part of publishing Web Publications. Even if no information is collected, such a declaration increases
the trust users have with the content.</p>

<p>To address this concern, the infoset allows a link to be provided to a privacy policy. The privacy policy
does not have to be a resource of the Web Publication, although including it as a resource is
RECOMMENDED.</p>

<p>Refer to <a href="#privacy"></a> for more information about privacy considerations in Web
Publications.</p>
