Privacy notice

Data controller: DERIVE LTD (details above).

What we collect:

  • If you sign in: your identifier from Google or GitHub OAuth (id, login, display name, avatar URL). We store this in a server-side session.
  • If you visit a project page or use the demo: a sha256 hash of your IP address (we never store the raw IP), your user agent string (truncated), and the project you visited.
  • If you commit changes through the editor: an audit record of the change (which user, which project, what changed) so commits can be traced.
  • Cookies: a single first-party session cookie for authentication. No analytics or advertising cookies.

Why we collect it: to run the service (authentication, session continuity), to detect abuse and answer the question "is anyone using this?", and to email the admin when something noteworthy happens. Lawful basis: legitimate interest (UK GDPR Article 6(1)(f)). For authenticated users with project access, it's also contract performance (Article 6(1)(b)).

Retention: session cookies expire after 7 days (4 hours for the demo). Analytics events are auto-deleted after 90 days. Workspace edits are kept until you reset or delete them.

Sharing: we use Resend (resend.com, US) to deliver internal admin notifications, and Cloudflare for DNS / CDN. We don't share data with anyone else and we don't use any third-party analytics, ad networks, or trackers.

Your rights: you can request a copy of your data, ask us to delete it, or object to processing by emailing [email protected]. You can also complain to the UK ICO at ico.org.uk.
