Privacy Policy
Last Updated & Effective: September 2026
At deployed.site, accessible from https://deployed.site, respecting your privacy and protecting developer data is a fundamental commitment. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of information we collect, how it is processed and protected, and your rights as a platform member or visitor.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information necessary to operate a high-performance developer showcase platform. This information falls into three categories:
A. Account & Profile Information: When you register via OAuth providers (such as GitHub), we store your name, username, email address, avatar URL, bio, social links, and public profile details.
B. Published Showcase Submissions: Metadata associated with projects you publish, including project titles, descriptions, deployment target URLs, repository links, tech tags, deployment status, and upload timestamps.
C. Usage & Engagement Data: Telemetry and interaction metrics such as likes given/received, project bookmarking, outbound deployment click counts, IP addresses for rate limiting, user agent strings, and browser session tokens.
2. How We Use Your Information
We process collected data exclusively for legitimate operational purposes, including:
- Rendering project discovery feeds, search indices, trending leaderboards, and builder profile timelines.
- Verifying builder identity and maintaining single sign-on authentication across sessions.
- Preventing spam, bot submissions, automated abusive requests, and violations of our Community Guidelines.
- Computing aggregated analytics to highlight trending technology stacks and popular community deployments.
- Communicating platform updates, security alerts, and administrative notifications.
3. Source Code & External Hosting Disclaimer
Zero Code Storage Architecture
deployed.site is strictly a metadata and deployment discovery index. We do not host application servers, store private repository code, mirror live user databases, or execute application workloads. External application URLs showcased on deployed.site link to third-party infrastructure governed by their respective hosting providers and individual privacy policies.
4. Cookies, Storage & Telemetry
We utilize essential technical cookies and secure HTTP session headers strictly required to maintain authenticated states and platform security. We do not employ intrusive cross-site tracking cookies or sell your personal data to third-party ad networks.
5. Data Rights & Retention
You maintain complete ownership of your showcased projects and personal profile. You can modify or permanently delete your project listings through your user dashboard. You also have the right to request full export or complete deletion of your account data by contacting our privacy team.

We may periodically update this Privacy Policy to reflect technical enhancements or regulatory compliance. Any revisions will be published here with an updated effective date.
