Toii Social

Privacy policy statement

For Toii Social, we take the protection of your personal data seriously. Our blockchain-based decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) social platform enables you to connect with friends, share content, participate in DePIN infrastructure, and earn rewards through social interactions and AI-powered features. We understand that your social data and blockchain transactions are personal, and the protection of your personal data is of utmost importance to us.

This Privacy Policy applies to personal data collected and processed by us through our "Services" which includes: our Toii Social platform ("Platform"), Application ("App"), websites, software, APIs, blockchain interactions, DePIN participation, AI features, emails, newsletters and our services. We collect information from and about users of our App:

Directly from you when you provide it to us.

Automatically when you use the App and interact with blockchain networks.

Through AI-powered features and content recommendations.

By clicking "Agree" in the "Personal Information Protection Guidelines" when installing our App, you give consent to our processing of your data in accordance with this Privacy Policy and the applicable laws, and you give consent to and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy.

Age of consent

The App is not intended for children under 18 years of age, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18. If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a child under 18 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information. We reserve the right to only accept registration of, or provide our Products and Services to those over the age of 18 years. If you are under 18 years of age, you must let your parent or guardian know about our Privacy Policy before you access the Platform.

Data collected from users

Data collected automatically

When you use the features of our Platform, the app may automatically collect and store certain information about your visit. This includes details such as the type of browser and operating system you use to access our Website, the date and time of your visit, and the referring website address if you arrived via a link. Additional visit-related information may also be gathered.

Processed data

Note that some personal data we process, including blockchain transaction data and social interaction patterns, may be considered sensitive. Such data is processed only with your consent, as required by law. If you use Toii Social's location-based services, like GPS-based social features, we may process your device's approximate or precise location while the service is active. This data can be obtained via your device's network ID, GPS, and/or Wi-Fi data. We do not process location data without your consent, and you can disable location processing anytime through your device's settings.

Additionally, with your opt-in consent, you may share limited personal information, such as social engagement and community interaction patterns, with selected Toii Social users. You can adjust what data you share or opt-out of sharing entirely. Depending on your service usage, you may also interact with other users' information and content. Always maintain a respectful and supportive environment when engaging with other users.

Safeguarding your data

Toii Social employs both technical and organizational measures to ensure the security and safety of your data. These measures may include anonymizing or pseudonymizing personal data, enforcing strict access controls, utilizing encryption to protect the data we handle, and implementing blockchain security best practices. Our staff undergoes comprehensive training to process personal data in line with our internal policies and legal obligations. Access to your sensitive personal data is restricted to authorized personnel only. We conduct regular security assessments of our services, systems, and other assets to identify potential vulnerabilities. Additionally, we frequently update the Toii Social app and platform. We advise you to always install the latest versions to enhance the protection of your data.

Data retention

The retention period for your personal data generally depends on the duration of your Toii Social account lifecycle. Your personal data will be deleted when it is no longer needed for the purpose it was originally collected, unless we have a legal obligation to retain data for a longer period of time. For example, your social interaction data and content is stored only so long as your Toii Social account is active. Blockchain transaction data may be retained longer due to the immutable nature of blockchain records. Toii Social also has legal obligations to retain certain personal data for a specific period of time. These required retention periods may include, for example, accounting and tax requirements, legal claims, or for any other legal purposes. Please note that obligatory retention periods for personal data vary based on the relevant law.

Data breach

If we become aware of any compromise to the security of our Platform, Products, or Services, or if your information is disclosed to unrelated third parties due to external activities such as security attacks or fraud, we will take appropriate measures. These may include investigation, reporting, and notifying and cooperating with law enforcement authorities. In the event of a data breach, we will strive to notify affected individuals if there is a reasonable risk of harm or if notification is legally required. We will post a notice on our Website and, if necessary, send you an email. If you suspect your information with us is no longer secure, please contact us at [email protected].

Third party websites and apps

Generally, third-party providers we use will collect, use, and disclose your information only as necessary to perform the services they provide to us. However, some third-party service providers have their own privacy policies regarding the information we must provide for your purchase-related transactions. We recommend reviewing their privacy policies to understand how your personal information will be handled. Note that some providers may be located in different jurisdictions than you or us. If you proceed with a transaction involving a third-party service provider, your information may be subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) where the provider or its facilities are located. Once you leave our website or are redirected to a third-party site or app, this Privacy Policy and our website's Terms of Service no longer apply.

Our legal rights

We reserve the right to disclose personal data to protect our legal rights and property, and to comply with valid legal requirements. We may preserve or disclose data about you to comply with a law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request; to assert legal rights or defend against legal claims; or to prevent, detect, or investigate illegal activity, fraud, abuse, violations of our terms, or threats to the security of the Services or the physical safety of any person.

In cases where personal data is processed outside of the jurisdiction in which it was collected, we always ensure your personal data is protected with appropriate safeguards in accordance with applicable privacy and data protection laws. Please note that the countries where we operate may have privacy and data protection laws that differ from, and are potentially less protective than, the laws of your country. You agree to this risk when you create a Toii Social account and click "I agree" to data transfers.

Assignment and transfer

All our rights and obligations under this Privacy Policy and Terms of Service are freely assignable by us to any of our affiliates, in connection with a merger, acquisition, restructuring, liquidation, bankruptcy or sale of assets, or by operation of law or otherwise, and we may transfer your information to any of our affiliates, successor entities, or new owner. If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing due diligence, reorganization, bankruptcy, receivership, purchase or sale of assets, or transition of service to another provider, then your information may be sold or transferred as part of such a transaction, as permitted by law and/or contract.
