1. Introduction
Effective Office (“we”, “our”, “us”) operates https://office.effective.dev, an open‑source project documentation site. We value user privacy and commit to transparency regarding any data we collect.
2. Data We Collect
We do not collect personal data unless explicitly provided via:
- Feedback forms or issue submissions through GitHub;
- Optional anonymous analytics, strictly pseudonymized and aggregated, with no personal identifiers.
3. Legal Basis & Purpose
Under GDPR and CCPA, lawful bases include:
- Consent (if you submit any form);
- Legitimate interest (aggregate analytics to improve the site).
- We use data solely to enhance the project and user experience.
4. Cookies and Analytics
We use only essential and anonymous analytics cookies. No tracking cookies that identify individuals are employed.
5. User Rights
You may:
- Request deletion or access to any data you submitted;
- Withdraw consent at any time (e.g. opt‑out of analytics).
6. Data Retention
We retain only data you explicitly submit and delete it upon request. Analytics data is kept in anonymized form and does not violate user privacy.
7. Data Sharing
We do not sell or share your data with third parties, except (a) GitHub when issues are submitted, or (b) legal obligations if required by law.
8. Security Measures
We implement standard industry safeguards (HTTPS, access controls), but disclaim that no transmission over the Internet is ever fully secure.
9. Third‑party Links
Our site links to GitHub and possibly other open‑source repositories. We bear no responsibility for third‑party privacy practices.
