Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 10, 2026
ShipLog is a small software service that helps generate draft release notes from GitHub repository tags and commit history. This policy explains what information ShipLog collects and how it is used.
Information ShipLog Collects
ShipLog may collect and store:
- Account information from GitHub, such as your GitHub user ID, username, and email
- GitHub App installation information
- Repository metadata for repositories you authorize
- Repository tags, commit metadata, file-change summaries, and compare data
- Generated release-note drafts and edits you make to them
- Basic usage and error information needed to operate and troubleshoot the service
How ShipLog Uses Information
ShipLog uses information to sign you in, connect GitHub repositories, list repository tags, compare releases, generate draft release notes, display your dashboard, troubleshoot issues, prevent abuse, and improve the product.
GitHub Data
ShipLog uses a GitHub App and only requests access to repositories you authorize. GitHub data is used to list repositories, read tags, compare commits between releases, and generate release-note drafts.
You can revoke ShipLog's GitHub access at any time through GitHub.
Generated Release Notes
Generated release notes and related metadata may be stored so you can review, edit, approve, and delete them from the application.
Cookies and Sessions
ShipLog uses cookies or similar session storage to keep you signed in and to complete authentication and GitHub App installation flows.
Third-Party Services
ShipLog uses third-party services to operate the product, including GitHub, Supabase, Cloudflare, and payment providers where applicable. These services may process information according to their own privacy policies.
Payments
If ShipLog offers paid plans, payments are handled by a third-party payment provider. ShipLog does not store your full payment card details.
Sharing
ShipLog does not sell your personal information. Information may be shared with service providers as needed to run ShipLog, comply with legal obligations, prevent abuse, or protect the service and its users.
Retention and Deletion
ShipLog keeps information while it is needed to provide the service. You can remove your GitHub connection from the settings page and delete generated release notes from the application.
Security
I try to use reasonable safeguards to protect ShipLog data, but no small web service can guarantee perfect security.
Changes
This policy may be updated as ShipLog evolves. Continued use of ShipLog after changes means you accept the updated policy.
Contact
For questions, contact the ShipLog operator through the public project repository or the contact channel published for the service.
