Privacy Policy

Auto Staking takes your privacy seriously. Please read the following to learn more about our Privacy Policy. Any and all use or access of the Auto Staking platform ("the Platform") is subject to the collection, use, and sharing of your information as described in this Privacy Policy.

What does this Privacy Policy cover?

This Privacy Policy covers our treatment of personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) that we gather when you are accessing or using our Platform. It does not apply to the practices of companies we don’t own or control, or people that we don’t manage, even if they are accessed from or through the Platform. We may gather various types of Personal Information from our users, as explained in more detail below, and we use this Personal Information internally in connection with our Platform, including to personalize, provide, and improve our services, to fulfill your requests for certain products and services, and to analyze how you use the Platform. In certain circumstances, we may also share some Personal Information with third parties and, in some cases, Personal Information may be made publicly available, but only as described below.

If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction of residence, you may use the Platform only with the consent of or under the supervision of your parent or legal guardian. We do not intentionally gather Personal Information from users who are under the age of 13. Consistent with the requirements of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), if we learn that we have received any information directly from a child under age 13 without first receiving his or her parent's verified consent, we will use that information only to respond directly to that child (or his or her parent or legal guardian) to inform the child that he or she cannot use our Platform and subsequently we will delete that information.

Will Auto Staking change this Privacy Policy?

We're constantly trying to improve our Platform, including how we approach privacy matters, so we may need to change this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updates to this Privacy Policy will be posted on this page no later than the effective date of the updates. We may, but may not always, provide advanced notice or otherwise affirmatively notify you of changes to this Privacy Policy. If you use the Platform after any changes to the Privacy Policy have been posted, that use or access is subject to the updated terms of this Privacy Policy. Collection and use of Personal Information is subject to the Privacy Policy in effect at the time the information is collected or used.

What Information does Auto Staking Collect?

Information You Provide to Us:

We receive and store any information you knowingly or voluntarily provide to us. For example, this includes information you provide when you connect a Wallet such as information regarding your transaction history on a Network, information you provide each time you wish to make a transfer of Virtual Assets through the Platform, or usage information, such as information about how you use the Platform and interact with us. Additionally, we may collect:

Wallet Address: Collected when you connect your wallet within the app, mandatory for product data analysis and cannot be cleared.
User Email: Collected when you add a subscription email for wallet address updates, not mandatory and can be cleared.

This information is necessary for the operation of our services, to personalize your experience, and to ensure the security of your transactions. By connecting your Wallet and using our Platform, you acknowledge that your transaction history and other associated information will be accessible to us and may also be publicly available as required by the nature of the Networks.

Information Collected Automatically:

Whenever you interact with certain parts of our Platform, we automatically receive and record information on our server logs from your browser or device, which may include your IP address, geolocation data, device identification, “cookie” information, the type of browser and/or device you’re using to access our Platform, and the page or feature you requested.

We typically collect this information through a variety of tracking technologies, including cookies, embedded scripts, web beacons, file information, device IDs or fingerprints, and similar technology (collectively, “tracking technologies”). “Cookies” are identifiers we transfer to your browser or device that allow us to recognize your browser or device and tell us how and when pages and features in our Platform are visited and by how many people. You may be able to change the preferences on your browser or device to prevent or limit your device’s acceptance of cookies, but this may prevent you from taking advantage of some of our features. If you click on a link to a third-party website or service, such third party may also transmit tracking technologies to you. This Privacy Policy does not cover the use of tracking technologies by any third parties, and we aren’t responsible for their privacy policies and practices. Please be aware that tracking technologies placed by third parties may continue to track your activities online even after you have left our Platform.

We may use this data to customize content for you that we think you might like, based on your usage patterns. We may also use it to improve the Platform—for example, this data can tell us how often users use a particular feature of the Platform, and we can use that knowledge to make the Platform interesting to as many users as possible.

Do Not Track Policy:

Your browser may offer you a “Do Not Track” option, which allows you to signal to operators of websites and web applications and services that you do not wish such operators to track certain of your online activities over time and across different websites. Do Not Track signals are set on a browser-by-browser basis, so you must set them on every browser you use if you do not wish to be tracked. We do not track our users over time and across third-party websites to provide targeted advertising and therefore we do not respond to Do Not Track requests. Remember that this is just our Do Not Track policy, and we can’t and don’t make any promises about how third parties react when you set this signal on your browser, including any third-party sites we may link to for your convenience or information. You should always review the Privacy Policy and specifically, the Do Not Track policy, of a third-party site to understand how they will respond to Do Not Track requests.

Information we will never collect:

We will never ask you to share your private keys to your Wallet or other security information that could be used to access your Wallet without your explicit consent and action. Never trust anyone or any site that asks you to enter your private keys or similar security information.

How does Auto Staking Use the Personal Information it Receives?

As a general policy, we aim to protect your privacy and Personal Information by collecting, using, or sharing as little Personal Information as possible in order to provide our Platform unless you explicitly agree in writing to additional collection, use, or sharing.

To the extent we do use Personal Information, we use such information to provide and improve the Platform, optimize our technology, refine the experience of our users, and innovate ways to forward our mission. Specifically, we use the information we collect to:

Administer the Platform, enable you to use the Protocol and other Web3 technologies, and improve your overall user experience;
Send information including Network transaction confirmations, technical notices, updates, security alerts, and support and administrative messages;
Respond to comments and questions and provide customer service;
Analyze how users use the Platform to help us optimize the Platform and identify any issues;
Protect, investigate, and deter against fraudulent, unauthorized, or illegal activity;
With your consent, link or combine user information with other Personal Information;
Provide and deliver products and services requested by customers; and
As disclosed below under the section entitled “Will Auto Staking Share Any of the Personal Information it Receives?”

We may create records from data, including aggregated and de-identified data, that is not associated with or linked to your Personal Information (“Anonymous Data”) by excluding information (such as your name) that makes the data personally identifiable to you. We use this Anonymous Data to analyze request and usage patterns so that we may enhance the content of our Platform and improve our services.

We do not share or sell the Personal Information that you provide us with other organizations without your express consent, except as described in this Privacy Policy. We may share your Personal Information with third parties as described below:

Consent: We may share Personal Information with your explicit consent.
Affiliated Businesses: In certain situations, businesses or third-party websites we’re affiliated with may sell or provide products or services to you through or in connection with the Platform (either alone or jointly with us). You can recognize when an affiliated business is associated with such a transaction or service, and we will share your Personal Information with that affiliated business only to the extent that it is related to such transaction or service. We have no control over the policies and practices of third-party websites or businesses, so please review their policies and terms if you engage with them.
Our Agents: We employ other companies and people to perform tasks on our behalf and need to share your information with them to provide products or services to you or to us. Unless we tell you differently, our agents do not have any right to use the Personal Information we share with them beyond what is necessary to assist us.
Business Transfers: We may choose to buy or sell assets and may share and/or transfer customer information in connection with such transactions. If we (or our assets) are acquired, go out of business, enter bankruptcy, or go through some other change of control, Personal Information could be one of the assets transferred to or acquired by a third party.
Third-Party Sites: We may use third-party services, such as Google Analytics, to grow our business, improve and develop our Platform, monitor and analyze usage, aid technical administration, increase functionality and user-friendliness, and verify user authorization. These services may collect information such as your IP address but not your name or other personally identifying information. We may combine this information with your Personal Information but never in a way that identifies you to others. Google Analytics’ use of this information is restricted by its Terms of Service and Privacy Policy (see https://google.com/policies/privacy/partners/). You can opt out at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/.
Protection of Auto Staking and Others: We reserve the right to access, read, preserve, and disclose any information that we believe is necessary to comply with law or court order; enforce or apply our Terms of Service and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of Auto Staking, our employees, our users, or others.

We generally seek to share only Anonymous Data where possible and will not share Personal Information in a manner that can identify you individually or provide more information than is publicly available unless explicitly agreed by you or instructed by you. We reserve the right to use and disclose Anonymous Data for any purpose without restriction.

Is Personal Information about me secure?

We endeavor to protect the privacy of the Personal Information we hold in our records, but we cannot guarantee complete security. The safety and security of your Personal Information also depends on you. Unauthorized entry or use, hardware or software failure, and other factors may compromise the security of user information at any time. Your Wallet is protected by your password, private key, and/or seed phrase, and we urge you to keep this information safe by not disclosing it to Auto Staking or others or leaving your Wallet open in an insecure manner. We protect your Personal Information from potential security breaches by implementing technological security measures including encryption, firewalls, and secure socket layer technology. We also avoid collecting Personal Information where possible. However, these measures do not guarantee that your Personal Information will not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by a breach. By using our Platform, you acknowledge that you understand and agree to assume these risks.

WE DO NOT STORE YOUR WALLET PASSWORD, PRIVATE KEY, OR SEED PHRASE TO YOUR WALLET.

We may use any aggregated data derived from or incorporating your Personal Information after you update or delete it, but not in a manner that would identify you personally.
