privacy policy

effective April 17, 2026

1. who we are

noticed ("we", "us", "our") operates the noticed.so platform, a developer intelligence service that helps professionals manage their network and career visibility. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information.

2. information we collect

We collect information that you provide directly or authorize us to access:

  • account information — name, email address, and profile picture from your OAuth provider (GitHub, Google, or LinkedIn).
  • GitHub data — public profile, repositories, contributions, and collaborator relationships, accessed via the GitHub API.
  • Google data — calendar events, email metadata and content, and contacts, accessed via the Google API with your explicit consent. We request read and write access to Gmail, Google Calendar, and Google Contacts.
  • LinkedIn data — profile information and connections from your LinkedIn account or uploaded LinkedIn data export archive.
  • usage data — interactions with the platform, feature usage, and technical information such as browser type and IP address.

3. how we use your information

  • Provide, operate, and improve the noticed platform and its features.
  • Build and maintain your professional network graph and developer profile.
  • Surface relevant connections, introductions, and networking opportunities.
  • Help you draft and send professional outreach through connected email accounts.
  • Display calendar context to help you prepare for upcoming meetings.
  • Match your contacts across platforms to create a unified view of your network.
  • Send you transactional messages related to your account and connected services.
  • Detect, investigate, and prevent abuse or unauthorized access.

4. Google API data

Our use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Specifically:

  • We only use Google data for the purposes described in this policy and as displayed in the consent screen.
  • We do not sell Google user data to third parties.
  • We do not use Google user data for advertising purposes.
  • We do not allow humans to read your Google data except where you provide explicit consent, where it is necessary for security purposes, to comply with law, or where the data is aggregated and anonymized.

5. data sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only in these circumstances:

  • service providers — trusted third-party services that help us operate the platform (hosting, analytics, AI processing), bound by confidentiality obligations.
  • with your consent — when you explicitly choose to share information, such as sending an introduction through the platform.
  • legal requirements — when required by law, court order, or governmental authority.

6. data retention

We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with the service. You can disconnect any provider at any time from your account settings, which removes our access to that provider's data. When you delete your account, we delete your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.

7. data security

We use industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including encrypted connections (TLS), encrypted storage for OAuth tokens, and access controls. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you.
  • Request correction of inaccurate data.
  • Request deletion of your data.
  • Disconnect any connected provider and revoke our access to its data.
  • Export your data in a portable format.
  • Object to or restrict certain processing of your data.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@noticed.so.

9. cookies

We use essential cookies required for authentication and session management. We do not use third-party advertising cookies or cross-site tracking cookies.

10. children

noticed is not intended for use by anyone under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

11. changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the updated policy on this page and updating the effective date. Your continued use of the platform after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
