Hello all, can owners and/or developers of github access the content of users’ private repositories, e.g. reading it? What is the state of data privacy? Greetings, DK |

Not unless you specifically consent to them viewing the content. For example one time I needed support on a private repo, they needed me to approve their request to actually be granted temporary access. Just don’t do anything you wouldn’t want law enforcement to see 😉 |

That’s a good summary. There are a lot of additional details on the GitHub Privacy Statement page. |
