h1. Private contact

h3. Email

If your inquiry can't be made public, requires confidentiality or is press-related, you can contact the Replicant project directly.

Please do not use this address in any other case: use public means of [[Index#Contact|contacting]] the Replicant community instead.

The Replicant project can be contacted directly by sending an email to contact@replicant.us.

h3. GPG encryption

Please do not use the [[ReplicantReleaseKey|Replicant release key]] (that matches this address) to encrypt emails to this address.
Instead, please encrypt the message using the [[People#Active-developers|active developers]]' keys. For convenience, you might want to use their addresses directly.

h3. Wrongful use

When using the private contact address for general-purpose questions or public matters, be aware that you might not get an answer to your email or get a standard response such as:

_Unfortunately this is the contact email address._
_This contact email address is intended for inquiries that cannot be made public._

_General-purpose questions should be asked through public means of_
_communications such as our mailing list, forums or IRC channel._

_This way, more people can help you and answer your inquiry while others_
_can benefit from the question and its answers as well._
