# Privacy Policy
Effective date: 2025-10-15
Last updated: 2026-05-06
This page explains how the Litex project handles privacy and basic terms for the Litex website, documentation, open-source repositories, and related tools such as golitex, pylitex, and the Litex Jupyter Kernel.
This document is a practical summary, not legal advice.
## Who we are
- Project: Litex
- Website: https://litexlang.com
- Main repository: https://github.com/litexlang/golitex
- Contact: litexlang@outlook.com
## Scope
This policy applies when you visit the Litex website, use Litex tools, contact us, or interact with Litex community spaces such as GitHub or Zulip.
It does not cover third-party websites or services that we do not control.
## What we collect
We collect as little information as practical.
- If you email us, open an issue, submit a pull request, or join a community discussion, we may receive the information you choose to provide.
- Public GitHub activity, including issues, pull requests, comments, and contribution history, is public and may be indexed or copied by others.
- Website hosting may collect standard technical logs such as IP address, user agent, referrer, pages visited, and timestamps.
- Litex command-line tools do not send personal data to us by default. Local logs may be created on your own machine for debugging.
We do not currently operate user accounts for the Litex website or tools.
## How we use information
We use information to:
- Operate and improve Litex projects, documentation, and tools
- Respond to questions, issues, and support requests
- Maintain project security and reliability
- Understand website traffic where permitted
- Comply with legal obligations
We do not sell personal data.
## Cookies and third parties
The Litex website may use necessary cookies for basic functionality. If analytics or non-essential cookies are added, we will provide notice where required.
Litex may link to third-party services such as GitHub, Zulip, package registries, or documentation hosts. Their own terms and privacy policies apply.
## Retention and rights
We keep information only as long as reasonably needed for the purposes above. Public open-source contributions may remain in project history indefinitely.
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict use of your personal data. To make a request, contact litexlang@outlook.com.
## Security
We use reasonable measures to protect project systems and data, but no system is perfectly secure.
## Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date shows the latest revision.
