Privacy notice

What is collected

From GitHub, when you sign in. Your username, display name, avatar, and the email address GitHub releases. Your repositories are never requested and cannot be read.

What you type in. Your profile, your work history, your projects, your updates, and any file you upload — including a resume, if you add one.

Counts and logs. View, like and follower totals, which are not tied back to who did the viewing, plus ordinary server logs that include IP addresses.

Why

To sign you in, to attribute your work to you, to show your profile to people looking for builders, and to keep the site running. Claiming your username sends you one email, through an email provider — there is no mailing list and nothing else is sent to you. None of it is sold, and none of it is used for advertising.

What is not collected

No advertising identifiers, and nothing that follows you to other sites. Page visits are counted by our hosting provider so we can see which pages get used — no cookie, no profile of you, and nothing tied back to your account. No precise location either — the globe on the home page scatters builders rather than placing them, because no coordinates are stored.

Cookies

One cookie remembers your language, a second keeps you signed in, and a third notes which profiles you have already opened so a view is counted once a day rather than on every reload. None of them follows you anywhere else. Whether you chose the light or dark theme stays in your browser. There is no cookie banner because there is nothing else to consent to.

What is public

Your profile, your published projects and their updates are visible to anyone and can be indexed by search engines. Your resume is not, unless you turn that on. Any file you upload is stored with a hosting provider and served from a public address, so hiding a resume takes it off your profile while deleting it is what takes it off the internet. Your email address is never shown on the site.

Your data

You can edit or delete anything on your profile. Deleting your account schedules it: everything stays up for 30 days so you can change your mind by signing back in, and is then erased from the site. You can also ask for a copy of your data, or ask for it to be corrected.

Questions
