Privacy
Be Guided is run by the people who publish this guide. This page explains what we collect when you read the guide or sign in to its admin, and why.
Reading the guide
You can read every public guide page without an account. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.
“Was this helpful?”
When you vote at the end of a page, we store your vote, the page, and a random number kept in your browser so the same browser is counted once. If you add a comment or an email address, we store those too and use the email only to reply to you.
Ask AI
If you use Ask AI, your question and the guide pages that answer it are sent to Anthropic's Claude service to write the answer. Do not include passwords or other private details in a question.
Signing in to the admin
Only people invited by the guide's owners can sign in to the admin. Sign-in is handled by Cloudflare Access, with a one-time email code, a Cloudflare account or Google. From Google we receive only your name and email address, and we use them only to check that you were invited and to record who made each change in the admin's history. We do not read your Google data or post anything for you.
Sharing and keeping
We do not sell or share this information. It is stored with Cloudflare, which hosts the guide, and GitHub, which keeps the guide pages. We keep it for as long as the guide needs it; ask us and we will delete what we hold about you.
