This Privacy 29 Statement applies to your personal data when you use our Services, and 30 does not apply to online websites or services that we do not own or 31 control.</p> 32 <section id="overview"> 33 <h2>Overview<a class="headerlink" href="#overview" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> 34 <p>Your privacy is important to us. We follow a few fundamental 35 principles: We don’t ask you for personally identifiable information 36 (defined below). That being said, your contact information, such as 37 your phone number, social media handle, or email address (depending on 38 how you contact us), may be collected when you communicate with us, 39 for example to report a bug or other error related to TalDir. We 40 don’t share your information with third parties except when strictly 41 required to deliver you our Services and products, or to comply with 42 the law. If you have any questions or concerns about this policy, 43 please reach out to us at <a class="reference external" href="mailto:taldir%40gnunet.org">taldir<span>@</span>gnunet<span>.</span>org</a>.</p> 44 </section> 45 <section id="how-you-accept-this-policy"> 46 <h2>How you accept this policy<a class="headerlink" href="#how-you-accept-this-policy" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> 47 <p>By using our Services or visiting our sites, you agree to the use, disclosure, 48 and procedures outlined in this Privacy Policy.</p> 49 </section> 50 <section id="what-personal-information-do-we-collect-from-our-users"> 51 <h2>What personal information do we collect from our users?<a class="headerlink" href="#what-personal-information-do-we-collect-from-our-users" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> 52 <p>The information we collect from you falls into two categories: (i) personally 53 identifiable information (i.e., data that could potentially identify you as an 54 individual) (“Personal Information”), and (ii) non-personally identifiable 55 information (i.e., information that cannot be used to identify who you are) 56 (“Non-Personal Information”). This Privacy Policy covers both categories and 57 will tell you how we might collect and use each type.</p> 58 <p>We do our best to not collect any Personal Information from TalDir 59 users. The detailed Personal Information TalDir asks from you 60 during the regular registration process at the beginning is 61 processed to verify that your are actually the holder of a certain account. 62 The information is never stored in plain text and only used to create a 63 cryptographic account identifier which does not allow us to recover any of your 64 details.</p> 65 <p>That being said, when using our Services to register a mapping from your 66 identity to a wallet, we may inherently receive the following information 67 (depending on your choice of authentication method):</p> 68 <blockquote> 69 <div><ul class="simple"> 70 <li><p>Your phone number when using SMS authentication. We rely on third party providers (such as your mobile network operator) to deliver the SMS to you.

SMS is inherently insecure, and you should expect many governments and private parties to be able to observe these messages. However, we do not store your phone number for SMS communication on our systems, except maybe in short-term logs to diagnose errors.</p></li> 71 <li><p>Your e-mail address when using E-mail authentication. We rely on the Internet and your E-mail provider to deliver the E-mail to you. Internet service providers will see the E-mail message sent to you and could thus learn that you are using TalDir.

However, we do not store your E-mail address on our systems, except maybe in short-term logs to diagnose errors.</p></li> 72 <li><p>Your twitter handle when using Twitter authentication. We rely on Twitter to deliver a message to you. Twitter will see the message sent to you and could thus learn that you are using TalDir.

However, we do not store your twitter handle on our systems, except maybe in short-term logs to diagnose errors.</p></li> 73 <li><p>When you contact us. We may collect certain information if you choose to contact us, for example to report a bug or other error with the Taler Wallet. This may include contact information such as your name, email address or phone number depending on the method you choose to contact us. We strictly only use the information provided by you in these instances to answer your request or to deliver the services requested by you.</p></li> 74 </ul> 75 </div></blockquote> 76 </section> 77 <section id="how-we-collect-and-process-personal-data"> 78 <h2>How we collect and process personal data<a class="headerlink" href="#how-we-collect-and-process-personal-data" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> 79 <p>We may process your personal data for the following reasons:</p> 80 <blockquote> 81 <div><ul class="simple"> 82 <li><p>to authenticate you during registration</p></li> 83 <li><p>to support you using Taldirs when you contact us</p></li> 84 </ul> 85 </div></blockquote> 86 </section> 87 <section id="how-we-share-and-use-the-information-we-gather"> 88 <h2>How we share and use the information we gather<a class="headerlink" href="#how-we-share-and-use-the-information-we-gather" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> 89 <p>We may share your authentication data with other providers that assist 90 us in performing the authentication.
