Privacy Policy
Last Updated: February 2025
1. Introduction
The KAWAI Network ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and process information. Due to the decentralized nature of our platform, our core philosophy is Data Minimization.
2. Blockchain Immutability and Data Rights
Please be aware that any data or transactions interacting with the KAWAI Network protocol on a public blockchain cannot be modified or deleted. By design, the blockchain makes records—such as public wallet addresses, transaction hashes, and smart contract interactions—immutable and publicly verifiable globally. The "Right to be Forgotten" (e.g., under GDPR) cannot be applied to decentralized on-chain data.
3. Data We Collect
- Website Interactions: When you access our website (getkawai.com) and associated frontends, we may collect basic technical data like IP addresses, browser types, and usage data to ensure security, prevent DDoS attacks, and improve user experience.
- Voluntary Information: If you voluntarily connect an email address, GitHub profile, or join our waitlists/newsletters, we collect that specific information. This is optional and separate from the core decentralized compute network.
- No Hidden Tracking: We do not track or store the contents of your decentralized AI compute workloads or private inputs directly on our central servers. All communication between AI users and Contributors is designed to be end-to-end encrypted locally.
4. Underage Policy
As stipulated in our Terms of Service, we do not knowingly collect, solicit, or maintain personal data from anyone under the age of 18. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected data from a minor without parental consent, we will actively delete that information from our off-chain servers immediately.
5. Third-Party Analytics and Cookies
We may employ third-party services (such as GDPR-compliant analytics providers like PostHog or Google Analytics) to understand website traffic. These services may utilize cookies. You have the right to opt-out of these tracking cookies via your browser configurations without losing access to the core KAWAI Network decentralized infrastructure.
6. Security Measures
We implement robust security measures to protect off-chain data we may possess. However, no data transmission over the Internet or data storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Interaction with Web3 infrastructure places primary security responsibility on the user (e.g., wallet security).
