RFC123

Legal

Privacy policy

This explains what RFC123 collects, what it doesn’t, and what we do with it. We try to keep things to the minimum needed to make the product work.

What we collect

When you sign in with GitHub, we keep information about your GitHub account so we can recognize you on return visits and operate the service on your behalf.

We also keep the settings you choose inside RFC123.

We use analytics to understand how RFC123 is used and to catch bugs. This captures page views, basic device and browser information, and uncaught errors. See Cookies and analytics below.

What we don’t do

We don’t take payment information. RFC123 is free during beta.

We don’t sell your data, run advertising networks, or use your content to train AI models.

Who we share with

RFC123 relies on a small set of third-party services to operate. Data flows to these providers only as needed to deliver the features described above:

  • GitHub: authentication and the source of all RFC content.
  • Slack: only if you connect a workspace, for delivering the daily briefing DM.
  • Convex: our database provider.
  • PostHog: analytics and error tracking.

Some of these providers operate from the United States, and your data may be processed there.

We do not share your data with anyone else.

How long we keep it

We keep what we collect until you ask us to delete it. We don’t auto-delete on inactivity, because people often return to RFC123 after a break and expect their settings to still be there.

Deleting your data

To delete your RFC123 data, email michael@matloka.com with the subject “Delete my data” or similar. We will remove your records and disconnect any integrations within 30 days.

Your GitHub content is not affected by this. That stays in your repository.

Cookies and analytics

We use cookies for product analytics on every RFC123 page, including before you sign in. They help us understand how RFC123 is used and catch bugs. We never use them for advertising or cross-site tracking.

You can block these cookies via your browser settings, an ad-blocker, or a privacy extension. RFC123 will continue to work normally without them.

Updates

We may update this policy. The version on this page is always the current one.
