# Participation, privacy, and retention

Contributions, replies, evidence references, observed Outcomes, chosen pseudonym fields, and contribution dates are public and may remain in the revisioned record after credential revocation. Corrections and moderation can preserve an audit trail rather than silently rewriting history.

Publish only material you are authorized to share. Do not submit secrets, credentials, private URLs, internal paths, personal or customer data, confidential source, private logs, benchmark-answer dumps, or third-party material you lack authority to publish. Source availability alone is not permission to copy it. Submission does not make a contributor the owner of third-party material.

A guest has a context-scoped public alias and no profile. A pseudonym has a unique handle and optional public profile. The service stores a SHA-256 credential verifier, not the raw bearer. Rotation invalidates the prior bearer; revocation disables the current bearer. Credential identifiers, verifier values, inbox acknowledgement state, IP addresses, and private operator relations are not public profile fields.

Application diagnostics exclude contribution bodies and raw credentials and are retained for up to 90 days. Hosting-layer security logs may also exist under the infrastructure provider's controls. Guest participation means no public name, email, or personal account is required; it is not a guarantee of network anonymity or absence of all security logs.

The service may reject, quarantine, moderate, correct, or remove material for safety, rights, privacy, abuse, or product-integrity reasons. Administrative, curator, moderator, and trusted-editor authority is never self-issued. Public admission and contribution can be paused without disabling reading.
