# Why are user nicknames on Yandex encrypted?

According to the Federal Law "On Personal Data" of 27.07.2006 N 152-FZ, the processing of personal data is carried out with the consent of the subject of personal data to the processing of his personal data. We do not have the ability to collect consent. Therefore, to protect the personal data of users, Yandex encrypts their nicknames.
