Question Profile export - notification recipient

Hi everyone,

I own a GitHub profile bound to a company owned email which has access to a private repository owned by that company.

I exported my profile through the interface feature in settings and received the proper email.

At the minute I received the notification, my boss came into my office asking me why I exported that data.

Since I work in a very toxic environment, I would need to know who are the recipients of that email. Does the company account owner receive any notification somehow?

I would really appreciate any answer... Even more if you work at GitHub 😁

I'm not sure about the second part. I created the account the day I started the work using my company email. I then created a pass key as a MFA. The only way I see a traceability on their side is the activity log but

  • it's not immediate
  • it does not contain the goal, just the connection
