Privacy Policy

Effective Date: November 26, 2025

Last Updated: November 26, 2025

One of our main priorities is the privacy of our visitors. Devshelter is a community-driven hub for open-source applications. This Privacy Policy covers only the main website (devshelter.org).

1. Information We Collect

Automatically Collected Information

When you visit our website, standard web server logs record limited technical data for essential operation and security purposes only:

  • IP addresses
  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system
  • Referring website addresses
  • Date and time of access

We do not track pages visited, time spent, or any user behavior.

Cookies

The main Devshelter website does not use cookies or any tracking technologies.

2. How We Use This Information

Server log data is used only for:

  • Security: Detecting and preventing abuse and attacks
  • Troubleshooting: Diagnosing critical server issues

We do not use it for analytics, marketing, advertising, or any other purpose. We never sell, rent, or share it with third parties.

3. Data Retention

Server logs are retained only as long as necessary for security and troubleshooting (typically 30–90 days) and are then automatically deleted.

4. Independent Applications

Devshelter only lists and links to independent open-source applications. Each application operates separately, has its own privacy policy, and is solely responsible for any data it collects. We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Always review the application’s own policy before use.

This policy applies solely to the Devshelter hub website (devshelter.org) and not to any linked applications.
