+This FAQ addresses users of our software in general.
+
+## General Questions
+
+### Do I need to sign a DPA with the Apache Software Foundation?
+
+No. As we are not controlling any of your data, it is not necessary
+to sign a DPA with us when you use our software.
+
+### Do you collect our users data when we use your software?
+
+No. The Apache Software Foundation does provide software for the public good;
+it does not include any kind of software which you reveil any of your data to us.
+We do not process, reuse or sell any of your users data.
+
+### Do you provide SaaS (or similar) services?
+
+No. The Apache Software Foundation provides software, but it does not operate
+it directly. While there are companies which may provide assistance in running
+our software, these companies do not have any relationship with the Apache Software Foundation.
+
+### With whom do I need to sign a DPA when I use an ASF product like a webserver?
+
+Please contact your lawyer or data privacy officer for these kind of questions;
+without giving any legal advicse, usually your web hosting agency or
+your infrastructure provider will use our products to provide you with services
+and in many cases you may have to sign a DPA with them.
