Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 16, 2026
1. Information We Collect
Gig collects minimal information required to operate the Platform. When you connect your Solana wallet, your public wallet address is recorded. Bounty metadata (title, description, tags, reference URIs) is stored on-chain and may also be cached by our backend for performance.
2. On-Chain Data
All bounties, submissions, and reward distributions are recorded on the Solana blockchain. This data is public by design and cannot be edited or deleted once confirmed. You should not include sensitive personal information in any on-chain data you submit.
3. Off-Chain Data
We may store off-chain metadata (such as bounty descriptions and thumbnails) to improve Platform performance and enable search. This data is stored on decentralized storage (IPFS, Arweave) where applicable, and cached on our servers. We do not sell or share this data with third parties.
4. Wallet Connection
Wallet connection is handled by your browser wallet extension (e.g., Phantom, Backpack). We never have access to your private keys. Your wallet provider may collect data according to its own privacy policy. We recommend reviewing your wallet provider’s privacy practices.
5. Cookies & Analytics
The Platform may use essential cookies for functionality (theme preference, language selection). We do not use tracking cookies or third-party analytics. If analytics are introduced in the future, you will be notified and given the option to opt out.
6. Data Retention
On-chain data persists indefinitely as a property of the Solana ledger. Off-chain caches are retained as long as the Platform operates. You may request deletion of off-chain data associated with your wallet address by contacting the project maintainers.
7. Third-Party Services
The Platform integrates with Solana RPC providers, IPFS gateways, and Arweave. These services operate under their own privacy policies. We select providers that respect user privacy, but we are not responsible for their data practices.
8. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data. Because on-chain data is immutable, corrections and deletions apply only to off-chain records. To exercise your rights, contact the project maintainers through the Platform’s communication channels.
9. Security
We implement reasonable security measures to protect off-chain data, including encryption at rest and in transit. However, no system is perfectly secure. You use the Platform at your own risk. We encourage all users to follow wallet security best practices.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as the Platform evolves. Material changes will be communicated through the Platform. Your continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
11. Contact
For privacy-related inquiries, reach out on the Platform’s Discord or open an issue in the project repository.
This policy is provided as a template and does not constitute legal advice. Consult a qualified attorney for advice specific to your jurisdiction.
