Information we collect

The site does not collect personal information, create user profiles, run analytics, or serve advertising. There are no account, payment, or newsletter forms.

Browser-local data

Saved organizations are stored only in your browser’s local storage. They are not transmitted to this project or synchronized between devices. The public GitHub star count may be cached for up to 15 minutes in your current browser session. Clearing site data removes locally stored information.

External websites

Organization websites, source repositories, LinkedIn, GitHub, and the official GSoC website are third-party services with their own privacy practices. To display the current repository star count, your browser requests public repository metadata from GitHub without an account token. GitHub may process connection data under its own privacy terms.
