These are the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy for the gianmarco.gg website and all of its services. Please read carefully and I won't bite you.
|
|
|
|
# Preface
|
|
|
|
Don't forget that **I own the server and all of its services**, that means that I have the power to do whatever I want and that includes changing this document whenever I feel like. It's on you to decide if you want to trust me or not with my promises and your data.
|
|
|
|
"Why the heck do you need a document like this on here?" you might be asking, the reason is simple: the website and other services hosted on it let users **interact with content or upload their own**, so a small number of rules is needed to keep this place nice and tidy; also a set of privacy policies are also necessary because the before mentioned interaction and uploading of stuff require some sort of **authentication** and I want to be transparent about the data that gets collected.
|
|
|
|
Here's a list of all of the services that have their own set of rules and/or policies:
|
|
|
|
- **the main site's comments** that are under every article;
|
|
- **the Git server** where people can commit, open issues, etc.;
|
|
- **the Mumble server** where people can voice chat with each other.
|
|
|
|
# The main site's comments
|
|
|
|
Every article of the website has a comments section that looks like this.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The main part has a big text box where you type your comment, right under that there are three optional text boxes for **the display name**, **your email address** for a notification feature of the Isso comments system which is disabled on this site so it's unnecessary to fill that box, and **a website** of your choice, like your personal blog, that people can access by clicking on your display name on the posted comment. After those you have a Preview and a Submit button which are self explanatory.
|
|
|
|
## Terms for using the comments
|
|
|
|
Here's what you can and can't do:
|
|
|
|
- you can submit a comment or reply to another comment with your opinion or whatever you wanna say as long as it's not spam, offensive or too off-topic from the current article;
|
|
- you can use whatever name, email or website link you want as long as it's not spam, offensive or impersonating someone;
|
|
- you can upvote or downvote comments posted by others;
|
|
- you **can't** post more than two comments each minute;
|
|
- you can edit or delete a comment of yours until 15 minutes from posting;
|
|
- you can report any comment that you think is going against the terms.
|
|
|
|
Also there are some things that I am exclusively allowed to do at any time:
|
|
|
|
- delete any comment;
|
|
- edit any comment, including their display name, email address and website link.
|
|
|
|
## Privacy when using the comments
|
|
|
|
The data the server gets when posting a comment or a reply is:
|
|
|
|
- the comment itself;
|
|
- the display name if specified;
|
|
- the email address if specified;
|
|
- the website link if specified.
|
|
|
|
The comment, display name and website link **can be seen by anyone**, while the email **can only be seen by the server and who can access the backend**, that means me. Again, the email is only needed for a notification feature which is disabled, so don't even bother adding your address since I don't guarantee I'll enable that feature in the future.
|
|
|
|
# The Git server
|
|
|
|
The Git server is powered by a frontend called Gogs, which has a UI and a feature set very similar to GitHub.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can create or import repos, create organizations, post issues, make pull requests, etc.
|
|
|
|
## Terms for using the Git server
|
|
|
|
Here's what you can and can't do:
|
|
|
|
- you can create or import repos as long as they are related to me or a project of mine (e.g.: a fork of my nsxiv repo) and as long as they're not spam, offensive or illegal;
|
|
- you can create organizations as long as they aren't spam, offensive or illegal and as long as they don't impersonate anyone;
|
|
- you can post issues or comments as long as they aren't spam, offensive or illegal;
|
|
- you can make pull requests;
|
|
- you can do remoting with Git via the command line or a frontend of any sort, both HTTPS and SSH are supported (e.g.: `git clone git@git.gianmarco.gg:username/repo`, `git push`);
|
|
- you can set any username, full name, email, profile picture, location and website you want as long as they aren't spam, offensive or illegal;
|
|
- you can report any user that you think is going against the terms.
|
|
|
|
Also there are some things that I am exclusively allowed to do at any time:
|
|
|
|
- delete accounts, repos or organizations;
|
|
- edit account details such as full name, email, password, website, location, maximum repo creation limit, activation status, login permission, administrative permissions and Git hook creation permission.
|
|
|
|
## Privacy when using the Git server
|
|
|
|
The data the server gets when using the Git server is:
|
|
|
|
- login credentials (username, email and password);
|
|
- extra profile details (profile picture, location and website);
|
|
- date of creation of the account;
|
|
- anything pushed to the repos, including the commit history;
|
|
- any commit, comment, issue, pull request, etc.
|
|
|
|
The credentials can be remembered on the current browser with a cookie (when you tick "Remember me" on the login page), that's the only cookie that the site gives you.
|
|
|
|
All of this data **can be seen by anyone**, except for login credentials and private repos which **can only be seen by the account/repo owner, the server and who can access the backend**, that means me, except for the password which **can't be seen at all**.
|
|
|
|
# The Mumble server
|
|
|
|
The Mumble server is powered by a backend called Murmur, the official server software for Mumble.
|
|
|
|
## Terms for using the Mumble server
|
|
|
|
Here's what you can and can't do:
|
|
|
|
- you can log on with any name and certificate you want as long as you're not impersonating someone;
|
|
- you can voice chat or text chat with anybody in any category you're allowed to go into as long as you're not disrespectful, annoying or harmful to others;
|
|
- you can contact an administrator to report any user you think is going against the terms.
|
|
|
|
Also there are some things that I am exclusively allowed to do at any time:
|
|
|
|
- kick, ban, mute, deafen, prioritize or get information of any user;
|
|
- delete or edit any channel.
|
|
|
|
## Privacy when using the Mumble server
|
|
|
|
The data the server gets when using the Matrix server is:
|
|
|
|
- username and certificate details (name, signatures, dates, etc.);
|
|
- IP address;
|
|
- operating system;
|
|
- client version, CELT version and Opus support status;
|
|
- ping statistics;
|
|
- UDP packet statistics;
|
|
- connection uptime and bandwith speed;
|
|
- your voice and text messages.
|
|
|
|
All of this data is **can be seen by the server and who can access the backend**, that means me. Treat this as a public space and don't just give away sensitive info, either via voice or text, to random strangers connected to the server.
