Sithub Platform

Terms of Service

2. PLATFORM DESCRIPTION AND OPERATING PRINCIPLES

2.1 Architectural Principle: Local Processing

Sithub is designed based on the principle of "Privacy by Design" (privacy by design). All Components operate exclusively on the User's local infrastructure without transferring source code to external servers.

2.2 Platform Components

2.2.1 Repository Management System

Self-hosted Git version control:

  • Operates entirely on the User's equipment
  • Does not require internet connection for core functionality
  • Does not transmit repository data to Provider's servers
  • Is a fully autonomous component for code management

2.2.2 Security Scanning Engine

AI-powered code analysis operating locally:

  • Performs security scanning on local infrastructure
  • Runs entirely within your network
  • Integrates with locally stored vulnerability databases
  • Does not transmit code or scan results externally
  • Provides real-time vulnerability detection

2.2.3 Vulnerability Database Service

Security intelligence updates:

  • Downloads threat data from Provider's servers
  • Stores databases locally on your infrastructure
  • The only component that communicates with Provider's servers
  • Receives regular security updates

2.3 Security Update Service

2.3.1 Purpose of Service

Sithub uses vulnerability databases to scan User's code for known security threats. To ensure these databases are up-to-date, the Platform downloads updates from Provider's servers.

2.3.2 What is Transmitted FROM Provider's Servers TO User

Incoming data flow (from Provider's servers to User's infrastructure):

  • Vulnerability databases (CVE, information about malicious packages)
  • Security patches and vulnerability remediation instructions
  • Package security metadata (npm, PyPI, Maven, etc.)
  • Malicious code signatures
  • Security scanning engine updates

2.3.3 What is Transmitted FROM User TO Provider's Servers

Outgoing data flow (from User's infrastructure to Provider's servers):

  • License verification tokens - cryptographic tokens to confirm subscription validity
  • License key hash - for authenticating update requests
  • Update request metadata - timestamp, Sithub version, installation ID hash

CRITICALLY IMPORTANT:

  • User's Source Code is NEVER transmitted to Provider's servers
  • Security scan results are NEVER transmitted to Provider's servers
  • File names, project structure, repository metadata are NEVER transmitted
  • Information about developers and users is NEVER transmitted

3.1.2 Guarantee Limitations
