Privacy Policy

How we collect, use, and protect your personal information.

The policy

Full privacy policy

This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use and disclosure of Personal Information when you use our Service. We will not use or share your information with anyone except as described in this Privacy Policy.

Cod3rs – "us", "we", or "our" – operates Cod3rs (the "Service"). We use your personal information for providing and improving the Service. By using the Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

Information collection and use

While using our Service, we may ask you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information that can be used to contact or identify you. Personally identifiable information may include, but is not limited to, your email address, name, phone number, address, and other information ("Personal Information").

We store information for 3 years and then keep it in anonymised version, or until you decide to delete your information.

Major League Hacking (MLH) is the official student hackathon league. By using the Service, you authorize us to share your application/registration information for event administration, ranking, MLH administration, pre- and post-event informational e-mails, and occasional messages about hackathons in line with the MLH Privacy Policy. You further agree to the terms of both the MLH Contest Terms and Conditions and the MLH Privacy Policy.

Accessing, changing and removing your information

It is your legal right to view all information collected about you by us. To access, change or delete information about you, please contact us anytime at [email protected].

Sponsors

We wouldn't be able to organize our Cod3rs events without the help from our sponsors. Sponsors, in exchange, will have access to the CV and other information you provide us. We, or our partners, may perform processing on and make use of the data within the CV you have submitted for recruiting purposes, for example to send you a job offer.

Media and publicity

We take and publish photos throughout the hackathon and other events organised by us. You may appear on some of these photos. We aim to publish photos that show everyone at their best, but there might be a few that you don't like. If you see a photo like this, let us know so that we can try to take it down — but be aware that it is difficult to completely erase a photo from all media channels.

These images will be used to share news about our Cod3rs events and to publicise our future events. Images may be used in press releases, printed publicity and published on our social media. If you would like to see your images or would like us to delete them, please write to [email protected].

Running the event

When you apply to the event, we collect information about you that is necessary for running the event, including your first name, last name, date of birth, email, phone number, age, gender, institution, study level, major, graduation year, shirt size, dietary restrictions, and any special needs you have entered on your profile. We store your RSVP status and your attendee status. We use this information for running the Service and for sharing anonymised aggregate data with media organisations for the purposes of promoting Cod3rs and other events.

Code of Conduct

By participating at any events organised by Cod3rs, or events related to Cod3rs organised by our partners, you agree to follow the MLH Code of Conduct.

This Log Data may include information such as your computer's Internet Protocol ("IP") address, browser type, browser version, the pages of our Service that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages and other statistics.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service offered by Google that tracks and reports website traffic. Google uses the data collected to track and monitor the use of our website. You can opt-out of having your activity on the website made available to Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

Service providers

We may employ third party companies and individuals to facilitate our Service. These third parties have access to your Personal Information only to perform tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.

Security

The security of your Personal Information is important to us, but be aware that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
