+# Privacy
+
+**DISCLAIMER**: This is **not** a set of legally binding statements about the software, as this is an open source project which builds on other projects.  It **is** a 'good faith' statement of intent around what data the program may manipulate, where it will be stored, and what for what that data will be used.
+
+## Data Stored By The Application
+
+This program requires you to provide, and stores, three (3) primary pieces of authentication data:
+1. Username
+2. Password
+3. An ephemeral user 'session' which is used to log back into TikTok and execute the blocklist.
+
+It stores this data in two places:
+1. A `.env` file, should you chose to use it.
+    1. This file will contain username and password information.
+    2. It is used for the initial 'automated' login process to capture your ephemeral authentication credentials.  After this process is complete, you can delete this file to remove your username and password.  You *may* have to fill it out again and use it again in the case you want to run the program at some future point after your 'ephemeral' credentials become stale.
+    3. This file is never sent anywhere by us.  However, the username and password stored within **are** sent to the TikTok server for initial authentication.
+2. A `playwright/.auth/user.json` file, in the project directory itself.
+    1. This file stores the ephemerial credentials used to log in after your first credential 'capture'. It's used for the 'true' authentication step when the blocklist is actually run.
+    2. You can delete this file to destroy any stored credentials.
+    3. This file is never sent anywhere by us.  The data in this file is submitted to the TikTok authentication servers to authenticate you while the blocklist program is executed.
+
+## Data Not Stored Nor Shared By The Application
+
+This application does not capture, store, or transmit (this is an incomplete list):
+1. Personal Information
+2. Data about your account, such as profile, follower, or following data.
+
+Additionally, and crucially, this application does **not** transmit nor transfer the above authentication data to any party or server except as expressly identified above in contacting the TikTok authentication services and blocklist execution.
