OpenDNS updates their privacy policy

The team behind the OpenDNS Service have announced that they have now updated their privacy policy.

They also revealed that they are now renaming their My Account functionality to Dashboard to better represent the features being offered to the user of OpenDNS.

The company further said in a blog post that:

It’s important to let you know that we don’t share your personal data. We don’t sell it. We don’t trade it. We don’t do anything with it that isn’t in your best interests.

OpenDNS further stated:

How do we know what’s in your best interests? We don’t…so we give you control over any DNS data we collect. You can tell us to keep it (for the detailed insights and charts) or you can tell us to purge it. You can even tell us not to store it at all. We know that for most of you, keeping logs about your DNS traffic (which, again, we won’t ever sell) provides you a greater experience and quality of service. In fact, like everything else we do, this feature was driven by your feature requests and desires to see more about what’s going on with your network.
