TruthWeb Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

At TruthWeb, we are committed to protecting your privacy as a user of our decentralized platform operating in test net mode within the Pi Network ecosystem. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your personal information. By using TruthWeb (the "Platform"), you consent to the practices described herein. This policy may be updated periodically, with changes effective upon posting. We encourage you to review it regularly.

2. Information We Collect

We collect minimal data necessary to operate the Platform effectively:

• Account Information: Your Pi Network username and associated wallet address to authenticate and facilitate transactions.
• Transaction Data: Records of marketplace activities or test net interactions, including timestamps and item details.
• Usage Data: Non-identifiable information such as browsing patterns, IP addresses, and device type for analytics and improvement.
• Voluntary Information: Any additional data you provide (e.g., email or profile details) when interacting with features like support or community forums.

We do not collect sensitive personal information (e.g., full name, address, or financial details) unless explicitly provided by you for specific purposes.

3. How We Use Your Information

Your data is used solely to enhance your experience on TruthWeb and support its functionality:

• To verify your identity and process transactions within the test net marketplace.
• To improve Platform features, troubleshoot issues, and analyze usage trends.
• To communicate with you regarding account updates, support inquiries, or community announcements (if you provide contact details).
• To ensure compliance with our Terms & Conditions.

We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or any purpose beyond the Platform’s operational needs.

4. Data Sharing and Disclosure

TruthWeb does not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties, except in the following limited circumstances:

• Service Providers: We may engage trusted partners (e.g., hosting or analytics providers) who process data on our behalf, bound by strict confidentiality agreements.
• Legal Obligations: We may disclose data if required by law, court order, or to protect the rights, safety, or property of TruthWeb or its users.
• Pi Network Integration: Basic transaction data may be shared with the Pi Network test net for verification, consistent with its protocols.

Any shared data is anonymized where possible and limited to what is necessary.

5. Data Security

We prioritize your data’s security by implementing:

• End-to-end encryption for data transmission.
• Secure storage practices compliant with industry standards.
• Regular audits and updates to address vulnerabilities.

Despite these measures, no system is immune to breaches. TruthWeb is not liable for losses or damages from unauthorized access beyond our reasonable control. You are responsible for securing your account credentials and Pi wallet.

6. Data Retention

We retain your data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy or comply with legal requirements. Transaction and usage data may be kept for up to 12 months in the test net phase, after which it is anonymized or deleted unless you request otherwise. You may request data deletion by contacting us, subject to operational constraints.

7. Your Rights

As a user, you have the following rights regarding your data:

• Access: Request a summary of the data we hold about you.
• Correction: Update inaccurate information you’ve provided.
• Deletion: Request removal of your data, subject to legal or operational limits.
• Objection: Opt out of non-essential data processing (e.g., analytics), where applicable.

To exercise these rights, contact us at support@truthweb.org. We will respond within 30 days.

8. Cookies and Tracking

TruthWeb uses minimal cookies or similar technologies only for essential functions (e.g., session management). We do not employ third-party trackers or advertising cookies. You can disable cookies via your browser, though this may affect Platform functionality.

9. Children’s Privacy

TruthWeb is not intended for users under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If we discover such data, we will delete it immediately. Contact us if you believe a minor’s data has been collected.

10. Test Net Considerations

As TruthWeb operates in a test net environment, some data (e.g., transaction logs) may be visible to Pi Network nodes for validation. This is inherent to blockchain technology and not within TruthWeb’s control. We strive to minimize exposure and protect identifiable information.
