Space V2 - Privacy Policy

Space V2 operates in a decentralized and permissionless manner. While we may collect and process information about users of SpaceV2.org or the Interface in accordance with this Privacy Policy, we do not have information about all protocol users beyond what is already publicly available and recorded on the blockchain.

This Privacy Policy (the "Privacy Policy") explains how Space V2 ("we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, and shares information in connection with our Services, as well as your rights and choices regarding such information. These terms apply to SpaceV2.org and the Interface, along with any other online locations that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the "Services").

By using the Services, you agree to our collection, use, and sharing of your information as described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the Terms of Use, you should not use or access the Interface or the Services.

1. Information Collection

A. Information You Provide

When you interact with our Services, we may gather certain information you provide directly to us. This includes:

• Correspondence and Content: If you reach out to us with feedback, support inquiries, or other messages, we may collect your name, contact details, and any other information you include in those communications.

You may also choose to share additional details that we did not specifically request from you. In such cases, you are solely responsible for the content of the information you voluntarily provide.

B. Information Collected Automatically

We automatically collect certain information when you use our Services, such as:

• Wallet Address: We may record the wallet address you use to interact with the Interface. This helps us prevent access to wallets associated with activities prohibited by law. Additionally, we may collect wallet addresses as part of general "Usage Information" to improve the functionality and user experience of the Services.
• Device Information: Information about the device you use to access the Interface, including device type, operating system, browser version, and screen resolution, may be collected. This enables us to optimize the Interface for a wide range of devices and troubleshoot technical issues effectively.
• Usage Information: We track how you interact with the Interface and Services, including your wallet address, the times you access the Interface, the pages you view, features you use, assets you engage with, links you click, and search terms you input. Analyzing this data allows us to better understand user behavior and continuously improve the Interface and overall experience.

For additional details on how we use tracking technologies and your options related to them, please refer to our "Cookies Policy" and "Analytics" sections below.

2. Use of Information

We collect and use information for various business purposes, as described in this Privacy Policy. The ways in which we use your information include:

• Operating and Managing the Services: We use the information to provide and manage the Services, including through authorized service providers. This includes responding to your inquiries, comments, and requests; providing customer support; sending technical notifications, updates, and security alerts; delivering important information such as policy changes; and ensuring compliance with legal and regulatory obligations. We may also use the information to detect, prevent, and address fraud, violations of our Terms, security threats, or any harm to the Services.
• Improving the Services: We use the information to continually refine and improve the Services, enhance user experience, and address any legitimate business purposes as permitted by applicable laws.
• Merger or Acquisition: Information may be used or shared in connection with any potential or actual merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of all or part of our business or assets.
• Security and Compliance: We may use information as we deem necessary or appropriate to protect the security and integrity of the Interface. This includes preventing or mitigating attacks on our systems, investigating potential misconduct, enforcing our Terms of Service, and complying with applicable laws, legal processes, and requests from government authorities.
• Facilitating Requests: We may use the information to fulfill your specific requests or instructions.
• Consent: Where required by law, we will use your information based on your consent for specified purposes.

In addition, we may use data that does not identify you personally (including aggregated or de-identified information) for any purpose, unless prohibited by applicable law. For more details on how we use tracking technologies and your rights regarding data usage, please refer to the "Analytics" section below.

3. Sharing and Disclosure of Information

We may share or disclose the information we collect as outlined in this Privacy Policy and for the purposes detailed in the "Use of Information" section above.

The categories of parties with whom we may share information include:

• Affiliates: We may share information with our affiliates and related entities, including where they act as service providers or for their own internal purposes.
• Professional Advisors: We may share information with professional advisors, such as auditors and legal counsel, to meet legal, audit, and compliance obligations.
• Service Providers: We may share information with third-party service providers for various business purposes. These purposes include fraud detection and prevention, identifying security threats, providing data analytics, managing information technology and storage, and monitoring blockchain transactions. Any information shared with these service providers will be handled in accordance with this Privacy Policy, and all service providers are bound to use the information solely on our behalf and as instructed by us.

In addition to the above, we may share data that does not personally identify you (including aggregated or anonymized data), unless restricted by applicable law.

4. Third-Party Services

We may integrate technologies and services operated or controlled by third parties into various parts of our Services. For example, our Services may include links that direct you to external websites, platforms, or other services that we do not operate or control.

Please be aware that when you interact with these third-party services, including when you leave the Interface, they may independently collect and process information about you. Any data collected and stored by these third parties is subject to their own privacy policies and practices, including how they share information with us, your rights and options on their services, and where they store the data (whether in the U.S. or other regions). We recommend that you review their privacy policies and terms of use to better understand their practices.

For instance, if you use a third-party wallet to conduct transactions on public blockchains, your interactions with that wallet provider are governed by the terms and privacy policy specific to that wallet service.
