#Contributing

It's important for a website like privacytools.io to be up-to-date. Keep an eye on software updates of the applications listed here. Follow recent news about providers that are recommended. We try our best to keep up but we're not perfect and the internet is changing fast. So if you find an error, or you think a provider should not be listed here, or a qualified service provider is missing or a browser plugin is not the best choice anymore or anything else...

Please do not submit suggestions here on GitHub - this is only for developing the website. Please submit them to our [subreddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/privacytoolsIO/) instead. Thank you.

##Images

- Provider logos should be exactly 200 x 70 ([example](https://www.privacytools.io/img/provider/AirVPN.gif))
- Tool logos should be exactly 120 x 120 ([example](https://www.privacytools.io/img/tools/ChatSecure.png))
