Privacy Policy

Effective Date: January 17, 2026

CasperID (“CasperID”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use the CasperID platform, including our website, browser extensions, APIs, developer tools, and related services (collectively, the “Services”).

By accessing or using CasperID, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Information You Provide

We may collect information that you voluntarily provide when you:

Create or manage a CasperID account
Verify your identity (KYC/KYB), where required
Use decentralized identity (DID) features
Contact us for support or inquiries
Integrate or develop applications using CasperID APIs

This information may include:

Usage data, logs, and interaction metadata
Authentication events (e.g., passkey usage, login timestamps)

1.3 Blockchain and Decentralized Data

CasperID integrates with public blockchains and decentralized networks. Information recorded on a blockchain (such as wallet addresses, DIDs, or transaction hashes) is public, immutable, and not controlled by CasperID.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information to:

Provide, operate, and maintain the Services
Enable decentralized authentication and identity management
Facilitate KYC, KYB, and compliance workflows
Improve security, fraud detection, and system integrity
Communicate with users and developers
Comply with legal and regulatory obligations

We do not sell your personal data. We may share information only in the following circumstances:

With Service Providers: Trusted third parties that assist in operating the Services (e.g., identity verification providers, infrastructure partners).
With Developers or Applications: Only with your explicit consent, when you authorize a third-party application to access specific identity attributes.
For Legal Compliance: If required by law, regulation, or valid legal process.
Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.

4. User Control and Data Minimization

CasperID is designed with privacy-by-design principles:

You control which identity attributes are shared and with whom
We support selective disclosure and permission-based access
Wherever possible, sensitive data is stored off-chain and encrypted
We collect only the minimum data necessary to provide the Services

5. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Blockchain data cannot be deleted once recorded.

6. Security Measures

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your information, including:

Encryption at rest and in transit
Secure authentication mechanisms (e.g., passkeys, cryptographic signatures)
Access controls and audit logging

However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. International Data Transfers

Your information may be processed or stored in jurisdictions different from your place of residence. We take reasonable steps to ensure adequate safeguards are in place for cross-border data transfers.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

Access your personal data
Request correction or deletion of certain data
Object to or restrict processing
Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

Requests can be made by contacting us using the details below.
