FAQ
# You can also set a field to "Mozillians" which means any vouched Mozillian can view it. Also, [[Mozillians/API#Sites_using_the_API|certain reviewed applications]] have been given elevated access to the API in order to help Mozilla's platforms interoperate. These reviewed applications can read fields through the API that you have marked for "Mozillians" only.
# Mozillians.org is maintained by employees of Mozilla, including engineers, system administrators and database administrators. These people have access to the raw data of your profile in a variety of formats, but they only encounter it while doing their jobs.

[0] Suggested review process:
* File a bug in the proper product and component
* The bug will ask specific questions like some other bugs do, not just be a big challenging bug form
* One aspect of review is that your application must be managed by the Mozilla Corporation. This means...
** Running on Mozilla infrastructure in a Mozilla datacenter (proof: link to bug about standing it up there or webserver headers)
** satisfying Mozilla's current data security, data privacy and legal standards for web applications (proof: link to project review bug or to reviewers we can contact)
* Another aspect of review is that you understand Mozillians.org's per-field privacy levels, agree to abide by them and agree to perpetuate them. (proof: conversation with application reviewer that satisfies the reviewer)
