2. Hosting and content delivery
mpowr nexus is hosted by Netlify, Inc., 2325 3rd Street, Suite 215, San Francisco, CA 94107, United States.
When you access the platform, Netlify automatically processes the following data as part of standard server operations:
- Your IP address (anonymised after a short period)
- Browser type, version, and operating system
- Referrer URL (the page you visited before)
- Date and time of the request
- HTTP status code and data volume transferred
This data is technically necessary to deliver the service, ensure its availability, and maintain its security. It is not used for profiling or advertising.
Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest in secure and efficient platform operation). Netlify processes data under Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) in accordance with Art. 46 GDPR. Netlify's privacy policy: netlify.com/privacy
Web font delivery
mpowr nexus uses the Switzer typeface, loaded from Fontshare (api.fontshare.com). When you load a page, your browser makes a request to Fontshare to retrieve font files. Fontshare receives your IP address and standard HTTP headers as part of this request. Fontshare's privacy policy: fontshare.com/privacy
3. Authentication and user accounts
Authentication is handled by Supabase (Supabase Inc., 970 Toa Payoh North, #07-04, Singapore 318992). Supabase provides our PostgreSQL database, authentication service, and row-level security enforcement. Our Supabase project is hosted in the AWS EU region (eu-central-1, Frankfurt).
mpowr nexus uses GitHub OAuth as its authentication method:
- GitHub OAuth — when you sign in via GitHub, we receive your GitHub username, public email address, avatar URL, and display name from GitHub's OAuth API. We store only the minimum necessary data in your user profile. We do not access your repositories, organisations, or any private GitHub data beyond what you explicitly authorise during the OAuth flow. We request only the
read:useranduser:emailscopes.
Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR (performance of a contract — provision of the authenticated service you requested).
