Does Linux Questions have a privacy policy?

Hello people, I have been enjoying the forum so far, people are nice and have helped me a lot. Thanks!
I wanted to know if there is policy somewhere about what kind of data does LQ collects, in which way and for how long, since it is pretty common these days to have this kind of information available to its users. I'm guessing there is none, and if there is, is buried down deep among a lot of other sub web pages.
I think what I'm asking makes sense, I say this because I don't want to be backlashed because this doesn't matter to some, or because they think it's pointless to try to avoid data sellers, or whatever.
Privacy respecting platforms/services/products are becoming more regular nowadays, even more among FLOSS activists, and I know that to a certain extent this is relevant to the LQ community since the polls had specific sections dedicated to privacy. I know that not every Linux user necessarily cares about this, you can use X, Y or Z distro because of its customizability, or whatever, but I'm sure a whole other lot of folks do care about it.
I'm not asking that the website keeps no logs (although I would love to see that), but at least to know if there is a chance to develop a privacy policy so anyone can know what is being collected.
Also, is LQ open source?
Thanks again!
