# Your Privacy

We understand that our users need to know what we do with information we collect
when you use our services.
If you'd like to read the main policy which Google adheres to, see the
[Privacy Center](https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/).

> [!IMPORTANT]
> **Important:** We built Google Public NTP to promote the [leap smear](https://developers.google.com/time/smear), and to retain as little information about usage as we could while still being able to detect and fix problems. Google Public NTP does not permanently store personally identifiable information.

## What we log

Google Public NTP stores temporary logs with your full IP address. We do this
for debugging, to improve our service, and so we can spot potentially bad things
like DDoS attacks.

We delete these temporary logs within 30 days.

We don't correlate or combine information from our logs with any personal
information that you have provided Google for other services.
