Privacy Policy

2) Information We Collect

• Account & Identity Data: When you create an account using Clerk or through third‑party OAuth providers (e.g., TikTok, Google, Apple), we may receive identifiers (name, handle, email), profile photo, and authentication tokens necessary to log you in.
• User Content: Short‑form videos and other media you upload (including TikTok content), associated captions, hashtags, and metadata (e.g., upload time, device/browser type, approximate location based on IP).
• Web3/Crypto Activity: Public blockchain addresses you connect, transaction hashes, amounts, token or NFT identifiers involved in tips or purchases, and wallet/provider information required to complete on‑chain actions. Blockchain data may be inherently public and immutable.
• Usage & Device Data: Log files, pages viewed, referring/exit pages, approximate location, device and browser identifiers, and interactions with features (for analytics and security).
• Support & Communications: Messages you send us (e.g., email, forms, reports) and their content.

3) How We Use Information

• To provide, maintain, and improve the Services, including account authentication and content hosting.
• To enable discovery, viewing, tipping, and purchasing of creator prompts and other products or services.
• To process on‑chain or off‑chain payments (e.g., crypto tips, prompt purchases) and record transactions.
• To personalize experiences, recommend content, and communicate with you about updates and support.
• To protect against fraud, abuse, security incidents, and to enforce our Terms of Service.
• To comply with legal obligations and respond to lawful requests from authorities.

4) Account Creation (Clerk & OAuth)

We use Clerk to manage authentication and account data. When you register or sign in using Clerk or a third‑party OAuth provider (including TikTok), those providers may share certain information with us to complete the sign‑in process. Your use of those providers is subject to their privacy policies and terms. We also receive and store a limited subset of data necessary to operate your account.

5) User Content (Short‑Form / TikTok)

You may upload short‑form videos (including TikTok content) for others to view. Content you upload may be public or discoverable by other users depending on your settings and our product configuration. While we do not proactively police or moderate all content, we may remove or restrict content where required by law or to address abuse, spam, or safety concerns.

Visibility reminder: Uploaded content, profile information, and on‑chain activity linked to your public wallet address may be visible to others, indexed by search engines, and stored or reshared by third parties.

6) Web3 & Crypto Activity

• Public blockchains: Transactions (tips, purchases) are recorded on public ledgers that are not controlled by us, may be viewable by anyone, and cannot generally be altered or erased.
• No financial, tax, or legal advice: We provide access to tipping and purchases but do not warrant the value, stability, or functionality of any blockchain, token, or wallet. Use at your own risk.
• No liability for crypto issues: To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim liability for loss of funds, failed transactions, gas fees, slippage, forks, network outages, smart‑contract exploits, or other crypto‑related issues. Review the Terms of Service for additional limitations and risk disclosures.

7) Cookies & Analytics

We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember preferences, and analyze usage. Where required, we will obtain your consent. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser or our settings (if available). Third‑party tools (e.g., Clerk, analytics providers) may set their own cookies.

8) Data Sharing & Disclosure

• Service Providers: We share information with vendors who help us operate the Services (e.g., hosting, authentication, analytics, support, payment/crypto infrastructure) under appropriate confidentiality and data‑processing terms.
• Legal & Safety: We may disclose information to comply with laws, lawful requests, or enforce our rights.
• Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your information may be transferred, subject to the terms of this Policy.

9) Your Rights

Depending on your location (e.g., UK/EU, California), you may have rights over your personal data, including the right to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to processing, port data, and withdraw consent where processing is based on consent. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with your data protection authority. To exercise rights, contact us at [troopertoken@gmail.com].

10) Data Retention

We retain information for as long as needed to provide the Services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Blockchain transactions may be stored indefinitely on public ledgers.

11) Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure. You are responsible for securing your wallet credentials, private keys, and account log‑in information.

12) International Data Transfers

We may transfer, store, and process information outside of your country of residence. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards (e.g., Standard Contractual Clauses) to protect your information during such transfers.

13) Children’s Privacy

The Services are not directed to children under 13 (or the age required by local law). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided information, please contact us to request deletion.

14) Changes to This Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will provide notice (e.g., by posting the updated Policy with a new effective date or sending an email/notification). Your continued use of the Services after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
