Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2025

Overview

ScienHub ("we", "us") operates scienhub.dev. This policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, and how we handle it. We collect only what is necessary to provide the service.

Data we collect

  • Account data — your email address, username, and hashed password when you register.
  • Content — LaTeX documents and files you create or upload.
  • Usage data — error reports and diagnostic information collected automatically via Sentry to help us fix bugs.
  • Authentication cookies — a short-lived JWT cookie used to keep you logged in. No tracking cookies.

How we use your data

  • To create and manage your account.
  • To send transactional emails (email verification, password reset).
  • To diagnose and fix errors in the service.

We do not sell your data, use it for advertising, or share it with third parties except as described here.

Third-party services

We use Sentry for error monitoring. Error reports may include browser type, page URL, and a stack trace. No personally identifiable content from your documents is included.

Data retention

Your account data and documents are retained for as long as your account exists. You may delete your account at any time, which will permanently remove your personal data and documents.

Your rights

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data at any time by contacting us at [email protected].

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be announced via email or a notice on the site. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance.
