The content seems generally OK. I think there should be explicit mention 
of attendance lists under "Certain information will be accessible to the 
public".


Under "What Information do we collect?"the third and fourth paragraphs 
have lost some letters or words:

"your interaction with the site, programs, and services, hat IETF may 
offer to you,"                                           ^

"Due to the nature of the, your communications"

At various places I might have editorial suggestions (e.g., remove 
excess commas), but after a day of doing so for another document I don't 
feel like continuing the work here. Maybe later.
