Devxa Privacy Policy

1. Overview & Commitment

Devxa ("Devxa", "we", "our", or "us") is committed to transparency in how we collect, utilize, and safeguard information. As a proof-based network designed for developers, we prioritize minimal data collection and clear user control over public builder profiles versus private account metadata.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information strictly necessary to provide our reputation verification services:

• Account Credentials: Email addresses and authentication tokens provided when registering directly or via OAuth (GitHub or Google).
• Public Builder Profile: Your username, handle, profile avatar, biography, social links, and public records.
• Builder Verification Data: Public prediction Calls, linked project repositories, and live demo URLs submitted for daily automated uptime verification.
• Technical Logs: IP address, user-agent details, and rate limiting tokens strictly utilized for site reliability, security, and abuse prevention.

3. How Information is Used

We use your information exclusively for the following purposes:

• To maintain and verify your public Builder Record and Proof Cards.
• To perform automated uptime checks against live URLs you explicitly submit as Ships.
• To authenticate your session and protect against unauthorized account tampering.
• To communicate critical account alerts, verification notifications, and service updates.

4. Public vs. Private Data

Devxa is a public proof network. When you publish a Call, link a Ship, or share a Proof Card, these elements are designed to be publicly viewable by visitors, recruiters, and other builders. Your private account data, including email address, private OAuth scopes, and authentication secrets, are never displayed publicly or shared with third parties.

5. Data Retention & Deletion

You maintain full ownership of your data. You may update your profile or delete your account at any time through your account settings. Upon account deletion, all personal data, private records, and authentication tokens are permanently purged from our active databases.
