Description

🔹 Description
The project currently lacks a dedicated Privacy Policy page. To ensure data transparency, trust, and compliance with global privacy standards, I propose implementing a Privacy Policy page that outlines how user data is collected, used, and protected.

🔹 Proposed Changes
Create a new PrivacyPolicy component/page.

Include sections such as:

- Introduction
- Information We Collect
-- Personal Information
-- Automatically Collected Information
- How We Use Your Information
- Data Protection & Security
-- Security Measures
-- Data Retention
- Third-Party Services
-- GitHub
-- Google Analytics
-- Sentry
-- Cloudflare
-- Algolia
- User Rights & Choices
-- Access & Portability
-- Correction
-- Deletion
-- Opt-out
- Contact Information
- Changes to This Privacy Policy

Add proper routing to /privacy-policy.
Ensure a responsive, accessible, and user-friendly design across all devices.

🔹 Benefits

- Promotes transparency in data handling.
- Builds user and contributor trust.
- Enhances professionalism and compliance with global privacy standards.
- Provides clarity on user rights and contact details.
- Supports GDPR and CCPA compliance.

🔹 Alternatives Considered

- Embedding privacy details in a modal or footer (less user-friendly).
- Linking to OWASP’s general privacy statement (not project-specific).

🔹 Implementation Status
✅ Yes, I would like to work on implementing this feature.
