Updated GitHub Privacy Statement and Terms of Service are in effect
Our updated Privacy Statement, Terms of Service, and Corporate Terms of Service are now effective.
Last month, we let you know of some updates to our Privacy Statement and Terms of Service and asked for help from our community. Thanks to everyone who commented and contributed feedback in our Site Policy repository, the updated Privacy Statement, Terms of Service, and Corporate Terms of Service are now in effect!
The updates
- Privacy Statement: As we mentioned in our blog post last month, we are proud to announce that our data protection practices are compliant with the GDPR for all our users, no matter where you live. This includes GitHub and our products and services like GitHub Pages, Atom, and Electron. Please check out the updated Privacy Statement or the Site Policy pull request to see what’s changed
- Updates to our Terms of Service and other policies: We made some changes to our Terms of Service and a few other policies. If you want to see the changes to our Terms of Services or Corporate Terms of Service, check out the pull requests or go to our Site Policy directory for the live policies.
- Update Release: If you’d like to see how our policies have changed over time, visit the “Releases tab” in the Site Policy repository and download copies of updates to our terms over the last year.
