# Public profiles

`/<handle>` shows a user or organization's public profile: avatar, display name, handle, bio,
and (when set) company, location, and website. Profiles are public; you do not
need to be signed in.

## Repositories

All visitors see that owner's public repositories, with visibility and default
branch, loading more on demand. Private repositories remain in the authenticated
repository and organization views; they are never included in this public list.

User profiles also show their saved pinned repositories in order, restricted to
public, live repositories. Manage pins through the [profile CLI workflow](https://git.cafe/docs/account/profile-management.md).
Contribution calendars are not available.

## Organizations

Organization profiles are public at `/<handle>` without requiring membership.
Member administration stays at `/orgs/<handle>`. Unknown or retired profiles show "Not found".
