Privacy Policy

ABOUT THIS POLICY

Please take time to read our Terms and Conditions and this privacy policy. By proceeding further, you have read and expressly consent to the collection, use, retention, processing, transfer and disclosure of Personal Data under the terms of this Privacy Policy.

Openfabric, operating the website https://openfabric.ai (hereinafter: “Site”), contact: [email protected].

This Policy explains how the Company complies with the General Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter: “GDPR”) which is an EU regulation for protecting an individuals’ right to privacy. GDPR’s core principles are lawfulness, fairness and transparency, data minimisation, data storage and purpose limitation, accuracy, accountability, integrity, and confidentiality. Enforcing GDPR in a decentralized system is a controversial and challenging task; it creates a tension between protection of the fundamental rights and technology innovation.

This data privacy information applies to all users of the Site and the Platform (together “You” or “Users”).

The Company Is the data Controller of your Personal Data processed for purposes set forth herein and, unless expressly specified otherwise, is responsible for the collection, use, disclosure, retention, and protection of your personal data in accordance with our privacy standards, this Privacy Policy, and applicable laws.

This Privacy Policy covers how the Company handles Personal Data when you interact with us on our Site. The Company may also link to third parties on our Service or make third-party apps available for download on our Platform. Openfabric’s Privacy Policy does not apply to how third parties define Personal Data or how they use it. We encourage you to read their privacy policies and know your privacy rights before interacting with them.

At Openfabric, we believe strongly in fundamental privacy rights — and that those fundamental rights should not differ depending on where you live in the world. That’s why we treat any data that relates to an identified or identifiable individual or that is linked or linkable to them by Company as personal data, no matter where the individual lives. This means that data that directly identifies you is personal data, and also data that does not directly identify you, but that can reasonably be used to identify you is personal data. Aggregated data is considered non-personal data for the purposes of this Privacy Policy.

2. ACCEPTANCE OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY

Where we require your consent to process your personal information, we will ask for your consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information as described further below. We may provide additional “just-in-time” disclosures or information about the data processing practices of a specific Service. These notices may supplement or clarify our privacy practices or may provide you with additional choices about how we process your data.

If you do not agree with or you are not comfortable with any aspect of this Privacy Policy, you should immediately discontinue access or use of our Service.

There may be situations where we cannot grant your request — for example, if you ask us to delete your transaction data and the Company is legally obligated to keep a record of that transaction to comply with law. We may also decline to grant a request where doing so would undermine our legitimate use of data for anti-fraud and security purposes, such as when you request deletion of an account that is being investigated for security concerns. Other reasons your privacy request may be denied are if it jeopardizes the privacy of others, is frivolous or vexatious, or would be extremely impractical.

If you are located in the EEA or UK, Canada or California, US our legal basis for collecting and using the Personal Data described above will depend on the Personal Data concerned and the specific context in which we collect it.

However, we will normally collect and use Personal Data from you where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your data-protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. Our legitimate interests are described in more detail in this privacy policy in the sections above titled “Use of Personal Data”, but they typically include improving, maintaining, providing, and enhancing our technology, products, and services; ensuring the security of the Services; and supporting our marketing activities.

We may need the Personal Data to perform a contract with you. In some limited cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect Personal Data from you.

Where required by law, we will collect Personal Data only where we have your consent to do so.

15. OUR SECURITY

To ensure privacy and security, users encrypt data before sending it to the platform, and in addition, the off-chain storage pointer (address) is encrypted. When the user requests data removal, the platform will destroy the encryption keys. Even if data continues to exist on the off-chain storage (when the deletion is impossible, e.g. IPFS), the content cannot be accessed without decryption keys. The Company Implements a logging mechanism wherein activities that include Personal Data are recorded.

Taking into account relevant developments in technology including telecommunications and web services, technical limitations associated with different telecommunications protocols, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of Processing as well as the risk of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons, we shall in relation to the Personal Data implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to that risk, including, as appropriate, the measures referred to in Article 32(1) of the GDPR.

In assessing the appropriate level of security, we shall take account in particular of the risks that are presented by Processing, in particular from a Personal Data Breach.

We use a variety of security measures to ensure the confidentiality of your Personal Data, and to protect your Personal Data from loss, theft, unauthorized access, misuse, alteration or destruction.

Please always check that any website on which you are asked for financial or payment information in relation to our reservations or Service is operated by us. If you do receive a suspicious request, do not provide your information and report it as set in this Privacy Policy.

However, we cannot guarantee that loss, misuse, unauthorized acquisition, or alteration of your data will not occur. Please recognize that you play a vital role in protecting your own personal information. You are responsible for keeping your Account passcode, membership numbers and pin numbers safe and secure. Do not share those with anyone. If there is an unauthorized use or any other breach of security involving your information, you must notify us as soon as possible.

Furthermore, we cannot ensure or warrant the security or confidentiality of information you transmit to us or receive from us by Internet or wireless connection, including email since we have no way of protecting that information once it leaves and until it reaches us. If you have reason to believe that your data is no longer secure, please contact us using the contact information provided in this Privacy Policy.

16. RETENTION OF DATA

We retain Personal Data where we have an ongoing legitimate business or legal need to do so. Our retention periods will vary depending on the type of data involved, but, generally, we’ll refer to these criteria in order to determine retention period:

Whether we have a legal or contractual need to retain the data.
Whether the data is necessary to provide our Service.
Whether there is any ongoing legal or financial claim that relates to your relationship with us.
What the expectation for retention was at the time the data was provided to us.

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your Personal Data, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your Personal Data has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your Personal Data and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible. In accordance with our record-keeping obligations, we will retain Account and other Personal Data as required by applicable law.

In any case if you consider that certain information about you is inaccurate, you may request rectification of such data.
