If you write a privacy policy, please consider having a couple of different people from traditionally marginalized groups critique it for you, particularly those of us who have lived in any sort of figurative closet.
...and for the love of the gods don't write a name policy without including someone in the process who has changed their name.

The last time I was charged with advising on a name policy it was like a scene from Life of Brian. "And if that woman gets married" "Person." "Right. And if that person gets married and changes her name" "Their." "....if that person gets married and changes THEIR name, then.." "Why do they need to get married?" "What?" "Why can't they just change their name?" "Their entire name?" "Yeah." "Just for no reason?" "Sure, why not?" "Well who the hell does that?" "Well trans people sometimes." "Listen why are you always on about trans people?"
