This post announces the results of an independent examination of the 1.1.1.1 public DNS resolver's privacy commitments. It details the examination process, including technical measures like IP truncation and limited data retention, and addresses some initial ambiguities in communication regarding log retention. The post also clarifies and refines the specific privacy commitments for the 1.1.1.1 resolver, emphasizing that personal data will not be sold or shared, source IPs will not be retained in non-volatile storage (except for a small, sampled subset for network troubleshooting), and transaction logs will be deleted within 25 hours. It highlights the importance of proving privacy commitments and encourages other organizations to do the same.
