Accessing personal data

Update Jun 2018: GDPR is in effect, which means that until GHTorrent's legal status is cleared, we cannot distribute this data anymore.

As of Mar 2016, the GHTorrent project does not offer personal data (namely, emails and real names) for download. For research purposes, you can request access to a file containing a mapping between logins and personal data.

To access the file containing personal data, you will need to edit this page to include the following details. When your pull request has been accepted, we will mail you the link to the data.
