 * Dear support,
 * I am an entrepreneur from Germany and use the free version of your plugin “Yoast
   SEO”.
 * Due to the EU General Data Protection Regulation which comes into force in a 
   couple days I am writing you to get the following information.
 * 1. What information of our website visitors do you (your plugin) store for what
   reason?
    2. Will the data be transferred to a third country? If so, which ones?
   3. What type or designation do you use for the level of data protection? 4. When
   do you delete this data? 5. Who is responsible for your data protection?
 * In generell, are you issuing an data/order processing contract?
 * Thank you for your help and your feedback.
 * Kind regards
    Mirko

 * Hi Mirko,
 * We do not track or store any information regarding your website’s visitors, we
   only store some of the server information (such as what WordPress, PHP version
   the website is using). This guide explains more: [https://kb.yoast.com/kb/gdpr/](https://kb.yoast.com/kb/gdpr/).
