# Your public profile

Want a page you can link from your GitHub or personal site showing the Hack Club events you've been to? Attend can give you one — **entirely opt-in**, off by default, and built to share as little as possible unless you say otherwise.

## What's on it

Your public page (at `attend.hackclub.com/p/your-name`) can show:

* your preferred name and pronouns,
* a short bio, location, and links (website, GitHub, X, LinkedIn, Mastodon, Bluesky),
* the Hack Club events you attended, with a map,
* optionally, a photo.

## What's protected by design

* **It's off until you turn it on.** No page exists otherwise — the link just 404s.
* **Only past events you actually attended** are eligible: an event can appear only after it has **ended**, and only if you **checked in** at it. Upcoming events are never shown — your profile can't reveal where you're going to be.
* **You choose per event.** Each eligible event has its own checkbox.
* **Photo is off by default.** Without it, your page shows your initial.
* **Hidden from search engines.** The page asks Google & co. not to index it.

## Setting it up

1. Click your name in the top-right and open your profile settings.
2. Scroll to **Public profile**.
3. Tick **Make my profile public**, choose your URL, and fill in whatever you want to share.
4. Tick the events you want to show, and **Save**.

You can edit or switch the whole thing off at any time — the page disappears immediately.

> [!WARNING]

> **Under 18?** Think about what you share. Bio, links, and location are entirely optional — a sparse profile is a fine profile.
