Private Profiles

Users now have the ability to turn their GitHub profile “private”, which gives users controls over features that share user data across the GitHub platform. To enable this setting, visit https://github.com/settings/profile.

Private profiles are in public beta. As we continue to release new privacy control features, please share your feedback.

For more information, see Private Profiles documentation.
