Local browser storage: preferences (for example, theme choice) and short-lived cache entries used to improve performance.

4. Community Skills and User Responsibility

Skills listed on SkillDock are published by community authors and are intended to be publicly available. We may index, parse, analyze, and display skill metadata/content to provide discovery and registry functionality.

You are responsible for reviewing skills before installing or running them, including code, dependencies, licenses, and security implications. Do not execute untrusted code in sensitive environments.

5. Processors, Sharing, and Transfers

We use service providers (for example, hosting, networking, and security providers such as Cloudflare) to run the platform.
We may share data with public authorities where required by law.
We do not sell personal data.

Data may be processed internationally. Where required, we rely on appropriate transfer safeguards.

6. Retention

Operational and security logs are retained only for as long as needed for security, integrity, and troubleshooting.
Browser local storage is controlled by your browser and can be cleared at any time.
Support emails are retained as needed to handle your request and maintain support records.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, rectify, erase, restrict, object, and (where applicable) data portability, and to withdraw consent for consent-based processing.

To exercise your rights, contact support@skilldock.io. You may also complain to your local supervisory authority. In the UK, this is the ICO (ico.org.uk).

8. Cookies and Similar Technologies

SkillDock uses only necessary browser storage/cookies for core functionality, security, and performance. We do not use third-party advertising cookies.

9. Automated Processing

We may use automated controls such as rate limiting and abuse detection. These controls are used for service protection and do not produce legal or similarly significant effects.

SkillDock is provided free of charge on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability, correctness, safety, or fitness of community-published skills or related content.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, SkillDock owners/operators are not responsible for losses or damages arising from use of community skills, third-party repositories, or external links.
