Privacy protocol
Minimal data by design.
HiveBuzz keeps discovery open, scans artifacts locally, and avoids identity collection for downloads.
Effective 2026-08-02Browsing without an account
You can browse and download without a HiveBuzz account, wallet, Nostr signature, or Buzz identity. HiveBuzz does not create a personal download history.
Local file inspection
Agent Snapshot checks run in your browser. Files selected on the submission page are not uploaded to HiveBuzz. A file leaves your device only when you deliberately attach it to a public GitHub request.
Aggregate download counts
HiveBuzz stores a release total after a completed download. It applies temporary network rate limits in memory and a release write budget to reduce abuse, but does not persist an address, cookie, device identifier, or individual download event. The counter is never presented as a safety or reputation score.
Hosting and public requests
The hosting provider may process ordinary security and delivery logs. Publisher identity, source, category, recommended harness, and recommended model become public when you open a GitHub contribution request. GitHub applies its own privacy terms.
Security reports
Do not include credentials, private keys, memory exports, personal data, or live secrets in an issue. Report sensitive vulnerabilities privately through the repository security policy.
