+### Support Policy
+
+`datadog-go` is built upon dependencies defined in specific versions of the host operating system, Go releases, and the Datadog Agent/API.
+For Go the two latest releases are [GA](#support-ga) supported and the version before that (till version `1.12`) are in [Maintenance](#support-maintenance).
+We do make efforts to support older releases, but generally these releases are considered [Legacy](#support-legacy).
+This library only officially supports [first class ports](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/PortingPolicy#first-class-ports) of Go.
