+## Go Version Support Policy
+
+This library will officially support versions of go which are currently supported by the go maintainers (usually 3
+minor versions) with a brief transition time (usually 1 patch release of go, for example if go 1.21.0 is released, we
+will likely still support go 1.17 until go 1.21.1 is released). 
+
+This library in our opinion handles a critical element of security in a dependent project and we aim to avoid backwards
+compatability at the cost of security wherever possible. We also consider this especially important in a language like
+go where their backwards compatibility when upgrading the compile tools is usually flawless.
+
+This policy means that users who wish to build this with older versions of go may find there are features being used
+which are not available in that version. The current intentionally supported versions of go are as follows:
+
+- go 1.21
+- go 1.20
+- go 1.19
+- go 1.18
+
 ## Status
 
 This library is still version 0, as per Semantic Versioning 2.0 rules there may be breaking changes without warning.
