# Privado (`privado`)

Open-source code scanner that finds personal data elements in source code and traces how they flow to databases, APIs, third-party services and logs. Its rules in the repository define the data elements in groups such as contact data, personal identification, financial data, online identifiers, national identification numbers, health data and personal characteristics, and the scanner matches them by the names of variables, fields and classes. The supported types cover only registry datatypes that match a documented type.
