Guys, I worked for seven months at a company and after my contract was over they took me as a collaborator. I had about 100 commits in their private project, but they all disappeared from my git profile. Does anyone know if there’s any way I can get my private contributions back in my profile?

According to the github documentation:
Private contributions are not Shown by default and, when enabled, are completely anonymized to the general public. [...] Details of the issues, pull requests, and commits you have made on private repositories are only Visible to your Fellow Repository collaborators.
Or in literal translation:
Private contributions are not presented by default and, when activated, are completely anonymized to the general public. [...] The details of issues, pull requests and commits that you have done in private repositories are only visible to your fellow repository contributors.
IE - both project administrators need to enable anonymized view, and you need to select 'Public and Private Contributions' in the contribution view panel. If they do not activate, your content cannot be viewed in your profile.

I’m afraid I don’t... As you said yourself, the repository is private, so if you’ve been removed from it, github disregards all your contributions to it.
However, you can keep contributing open source code! It’s a great way to learn, and it won’t be removed from your list of contributions, only if the project is deleted (but your Fork will stick). Remember, quantity of contributions is not a metric for software quality or for Skill from the programmer, for example, I can do 5000 useless commits, while someone else can solve a major problem in just 1.
A good programmer is not the one who has more contributions, but the one who knows what he is doing and likes what he does.

It was before the commits, even with private details to the collaborators, appeared on my github. Appeared there to people so-and-so made 100+ contributions in private repository. However since my removal from the repository this has disappeared from my profile for both me and people. I just wanted it to show up back this, because my git at the time ta reset already q was my first stage :)
