The Electronic Frontier Foundation's nonprofit filings are public under EIN 04-3091431 through ProPublica's Nonprofit Explorer, which republishes the organisation's IRS Form 990 disclosures covering finances, governance, and officer compensation.

EFF's privacy policy, last updated 2026-05-18, states that EFF does not sell or rent member, donor or website visitor information under any circumstances, and that its analytics retain only aggregate information, with IP addresses geolocated to country level before anonymization.

EFF maintains a public Security Vulnerability Disclosure Program Hall of Fame page listing, by name and where provided by link, the researchers whose bug reports the programme has accepted -- evidence that the disclosure programme covering Privacy Badger has processed and credited outside reports rather than existing only on paper.

The Electronic Frontier Foundation publishes a Security Vulnerability Disclosure Program whose stated scope names Privacy Badger alongside HTTPS Everywhere, Certbot and Boulder, and which applies to vulnerabilities present in the latest public release of the covered software. The published terms set out researcher conduct guidelines, ask that reports be made privately and that EFF be allowed at least 90 days to fix an issue before public discussion, state that EFF will make every effort to respond to valid reports within seven business days, and disclose that as a member-driven nonprofit EFF cannot afford cash bounties and instead offers non-cash rewards including public acknowledgement.

Privacy Badger's source code is developed publicly under the EFForg organisation on GitHub, where its tracker-detection heuristics and release history are open to independent inspection; no breach or regulatory action involving the extension appears in the drafted record.
