Anonymity Explained
Publicly anonymous by design, while private account relationships support accountability.
Effective date: July 29, 2026 · Last updated: July 29, 2026
What people see
Public decisions and Perspectives use neutral anonymous labels with a broad reputation rank. Public metadata, accessible labels, URLs, and public APIs do not include their authors’ account identities, exact reputation, or profile links.
What the service keeps privately
An account remains connected to its content for ownership, security, reputation, achievements, abuse prevention, and moderation. Anonymity does not remove accountability.
Public profiles stay separate
Opt-in public profiles can show a handle and privacy-thresholded contribution summaries. They do not list or link to that member’s decisions or Perspectives.
Your writing matters
Avoid names, locations, workplaces, rare circumstances, or other combinations that could identify you or another person. The product cannot guarantee anonymity if the content itself reveals identity.
