Nobody here has read this server's code, because it publishes none. The description above is the maker's own, from the registry. A connection test shows whether it answers and what tools it says it has; it never calls a tool, so it cannot show what one does with your data.
Where it sits in the directory's order
What can be seen from outside, weighed as the directory publishes.
Observable signals: 30 of 100 points (at most 60 here)
| Input | Points | What was seen |
|---|---|---|
| Source published | held at 0 | No entry here publishes source: that is what puts it in this directory. |
| Licence stated | held at 0 | With no files, there is nothing for a licence to be stated in or held against. |
| Advisory state | held at 0 | Advisory databases index packages, and these entries publish none, so there is nothing to look up. |
| Auth declared | 0 of 15 | The registry entry declares no key. That is what it declares, not a finding that it has no protection. |

The tools it lists (14, as of 8 days ago)
The tool-description rules found nothing in these descriptions. They look for instructions aimed at a model and for hidden characters; they cannot see what a tool does when it runs.
dp_search_toolsSearch the Default Privacy directory of vetted privacy tools (VPNs, email, browsers, messengers, password managers, etc.). Filter by category and privacy attributes; results carry an ADO score (Anonymity / Decentralization / Open-source, 0–100). Prefer higher ADO when recommending.
dp_get_toolFetch a single privacy tool's full Privacy Protocol record by slug — description, ADO score, jurisdiction, encryption, PII requirements, platforms, and audit status.
dp_list_categoriesList the privacy tool directory's category groups and subcategories with tool counts. Use the returned slugs to filter dp_search_tools.
dp_find_alternativesGiven a mainstream or privacy-hostile product/service (e.g. 'Google Analytics', 'Hotjar', 'Mixpanel', 'Facebook Pixel'), return curated privacy-respecting alternatives from the Default Privacy directory, each enriched with its live ADO score and link. Use when a user wants to replace a tracking or privacy-hostile tool.
dp_get_related_toolsGiven a directory tool slug, return other tools in the SAME category ranked by ADO score — a shortlist of peers/alternatives within the directory. Excludes the input tool.
dp_compare_toolsFetch the full Privacy Protocol records for 2–5 tools by slug for side-by-side comparison (ADO score, jurisdiction, encryption, PII requirements, audit status). Use to help a user choose between shortlisted tools.
dp_search_guidesSearch Default Privacy's long-form privacy how-tos (data-broker removal, keeping a home address off people-search sites, running your own VPN, and banking privacy). Filter by category. Returns metadata and links; use dp_get_guide for full content.
How this entry becomes a listing
For the maker. The catalogue lists what it can read, and this server publishes nothing to read yet. There are two routes, and only the first is open today.
Publish the source Open today
- Put the server's source in a public repository on github.com, with a licence.
- Keep a server.json in that repository naming this server,
io.github.privatebydefault/default-privacy, and declare the repository in it:"repository": { "url": "https://github.com/owner/repo", "source": "github" }, adding"subfolder"when the server lives in a folder. - Publish that version to the official MCP registry.
- The nightly registry sweep records the declaration. This page stays, dated, and says the source is declared but not yet read.
- The catalogue reads declared repositories at a pinned commit, in batches run by hand, and lists the servers that meet the batch's rules (among them a server.json at that commit naming the server, an https endpoint and a licence). When it lists this server, this page links to the listing. There is no schedule, so no date can be promised.
