Privacy Policy

Introduction

Welcome to Encapsulate. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that your personal information is handled in a safe and responsible manner. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website https://encapsulate.xyz. By accessing or using our services, you agree to the terms of this policy.

We collect various types of information to provide and improve our services to you. This includes:

• Personal Identification Information: Such as your name, email address, phone number, and mailing address, which you provide when contacting us or using our services.
• Non-Personal Identification Information: Such as your browser type, IP address, and browsing behavior on our website, collected automatically through log files and cookies.

We retain this data only as long as necessary, unless legal obligations or retention periods apply.

Data Protection Measures

We prioritize the security of your personal information. Encapsulate employs robust technical, organizational, and administrative measures to protect your data from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. These measures include encryption, access controls, and regular security audits.

Blockchain-Specific Privacy Practices

Operating within the blockchain industry, Encapsulate adheres to stringent privacy practices tailored to the unique nature of blockchain technology:

• Transparency and Immutability: Blockchain transactions are public and immutable, meaning that once recorded, data cannot be altered or deleted. Personal data on the blockchain is therefore permanently stored.
• Pseudonymity: Blockchain addresses are pseudonymous, but can potentially be linked to individuals. We ensure that personal data is only associated with blockchain transactions when absolutely necessary and in compliance with applicable data protection laws.
• Data Minimization: We strive to limit the amount of personal data processed on the blockchain, recording only the information necessary for transaction validation and execution.
• Security Measures: We implement stringent security measures to protect data integrity and prevent unauthorized access, including encryption and regular security audits.

Log Files

Our web server logs browser types and versions used to visit our website. User IP addresses are anonymized after use. Anonymization modifies IP addresses to prevent identification of individuals without significant effort. This anonymized data forms the basis for statistical evaluations to enhance our website's user-friendliness. It is not combined with data from other sources.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc., to understand website usage and improve our services. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information about website usage, which is transmitted to and stored on Google servers in the United States. If IP anonymization is activated, Google will truncate IP addresses within EU member states or other EEA states before transmitting them to the U.S. In exceptional cases, full IP addresses are transferred to the U.S. and truncated there. Google uses this information to analyze website usage, compile reports, and provide other services related to website and internet usage. The legal basis for data processing is the optimization of our website and content. Users' interests are adequately protected through pseudonymization.

You can prevent Google Analytics from collecting your data by adjusting cookie settings on our website. Additionally, you can download and install the browser plug-in available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout to opt-out of data collection.

Cookies

Cookies are small files stored on your computer's hard drive that help recognize your device during future visits. Cookies may store information about your preferences from previous visits. We use cookies and similar technologies to offer products and services, manage marketing, ensure online security, evaluate website performance, and tailor content to users. The data collected is not used to identify individual visitors. You can configure your browser's security settings to allow or reject cookies. Disabling cookies may limit access to some website features and services.

Changes to the Privacy Policy

Encapsulate may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Any changes will be posted on this page. If required by law, we will notify you of significant changes to this policy.
