Donate to Privacy Guides and support our mission to defend digital rights and spread the word about mass surveillance programs and other daily privacy invasions. You can help Privacy Guides researchers, activists, and maintainers create informative content, host private digital services, and protect privacy rights at a time when the world needs it most.
Privacy Guides has been a nonstop effort for over 5 years to stay up to date with the world of cybersecurity and privacy, and to promote the benefits of privacy overall. This is a non-profit, community-driven project that would not be possible without the generous support of all our contributors.
Donate¶
Currently, the best way to support our work is to send a monthly or one-time contribution via GitHub Sponsors. We will be able to accept donations via alternate payment platforms very soon.
A new donation platform we control to make donating easier will be deployed soon. In the meantime, if you'd like to arrange a donation (including with cryptocurrency), please reach out to info@magicgrants.org.
A quoi servent vos dons¶
Privacy Guides est une organisation à but non lucratif . Nous utilisons les dons à des fins diverses, notamment :
Hébergement web :
Plusieurs centaines de gigaoctets de trafic sont générés sur ce site chaque mois. Nous faisons appel à différents fournisseurs de services pour gérer ce trafic.
Payroll :
We currently have one paid part-time position which handles day-to-day tasks like system administration, writing regular product reviews, posting our weekly show, creating course content, etc. In the future, we would like to be able to hire full-time journalists and writers to review products and create more educational content.
Domain Registrations :
We have a few domain names like privacyguides.org which cost us around $10 yearly to maintain their registration.
Services en ligne :
We host internet services for testing and showcasing different privacy-products we like and recommend. Some of them are made publicly available for our community's use (SearXNG, Tor, etc.), and some are provided for our team members (email, etc.).
Achats de produits :
Nous achetons occasionnellement des produits et des services dans le but de tester nos outils recommandés.
Your donation will go to a dedicated fund within MAGIC Grants, a 501(c)(3) organization. The funds will only be used for this project specifically. You may qualify for a tax deduction. If you need a donation receipt, please email info@magicgrants.org.
