Data Collection and Usage in DeFi Services
Alluvial Chain minimizes data collection to only what is necessary for providing our services, ensuring security, and complying with legal obligations. Our approach to data is always driven by transparency and user control, particularly within the unique context of decentralized finance.
KYC/AML Compliance Data
To comply with Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations, we may collect identification information such as name, address, date of birth, and government-issued ID details for certain regulated services. This is strictly for regulatory adherence.
Blockchain Transactional Data
Blockchain transactions are inherently public and immutable. While we do not control the public nature of distributed ledgers, we provide tools and guidance for pseudonymity and data minimization, focusing on off-chain privacy for associated user data wherever possible.
Website Usage & Analytics
We utilize cookies and similar tracking technologies to improve user experience, analyze site traffic, and understand user behavior. This data is aggregated and anonymized wherever possible, and you have control over these preferences.
Third-Party Integrations
Our services may integrate with trusted third-party providers for specific functionalities (e.g., payment processors, analytics platforms). We ensure these partners adhere to stringent privacy standards and only share data necessary for their service provision.
Our fundamental principle is data minimization: we only collect what is truly essential. You can manage your data collection preferences through your account settings or by contacting us directly.
