Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy governs how Detask (“we”, “our”, or “the protocol”), a decentralized freelancing protocol operating entirely via smart contracts on the Solana blockchain, collects, uses, discloses, and protects information related to protocol interactions. Detask is designed to minimize the collection of personal data and maximize user privacy through self-custodial architecture.
By interacting with Detask, including connecting a wallet, submitting tasks or proofs, participating in governance, or otherwise engaging with the protocol, you agree to this Privacy Policy.
1️⃣ Protocol Nature and Data Minimization
Detask is a decentralized, self-executing protocol with no centralized control. It does not collect, store, or process personal data (e.g., names, addresses, emails) in the traditional sense. Instead:
Users interact via public Solana wallet addresses (public keys), which may be pseudonymous but are inherently public.
All interactions (task creation, submissions, payments) are recorded on-chain and are globally visible and immutable.
2️⃣ Data Categories Processed
🔗 On-Chain Data
Wallet Addresses: Used to identify participants, facilitate payments, and maintain reputation scores.
Transaction Data: Includes SOL/SPL token transfers, task metadata (budget, description, deadlines), proof hashes, and URIs referencing off-chain storage (e.g., IPFS, Arweave).
Reputation Scores: Calculated from successful task completions and stored in on-chain accounts.
🔗 Off-Chain Interactions (via Front-End)
While Detask’s core is fully on-chain, the front-end interfaces (e.g., web apps, wallet connection modules) may interact with user devices and third-party APIs:
Wallet Connectors: Used to initiate secure wallet connections (e.g., via Phantom, Solflare). These interactions are client-side and do not involve centralized data storage.
Cookies & Local Storage: Minimal usage, limited to maintaining session states (e.g., active wallet connection) without tracking user behavior.
Analytics: Aggregated, anonymized data (e.g., page views, session durations) may be collected solely for performance monitoring.
3️⃣ Data Storage and Security
On-Chain Records: All substantive data resides immutably on the Solana blockchain. This includes task metadata, proofs, payments, and reputation scores. The protocol cannot alter or erase these records post-transaction.
No Centralized Databases: Detask maintains no central servers or databases to store user information.
Client-Side Storage: Any temporary session data is stored locally in your browser and cleared upon session termination or manual deletion.
4️⃣ Use of Data
Protocol Functionality: Wallet addresses and transaction data are essential for executing task workflows, reputation mining, and payments.
Transparency: On-chain data enables public verifiability of interactions, aligning with Detask’s decentralized principles.
Analytics: If used, analytics data will be strictly limited to operational metrics (e.g., UI load times, connection success rates) and will not include personally identifiable information.
5️⃣ Disclosure of Information
Detask does not share, sell, rent, or trade user data. However:
On-Chain Transparency: By design, all transactions are publicly recorded on the Solana ledger and can be accessed by anyone.
Third-Party Integrations: Front-end interactions (e.g., IPFS gateways, wallet providers) may be subject to the privacy policies of those services. Users should review those policies before use.
6️⃣ User Rights and Controls
Self-Custody: Users control access to their wallet keys. No administrative override or recovery exists within the protocol.
Portability: Users can interact with Detask from any compatible wallet or interface.
Right to Deletion: On-chain data cannot be altered or deleted once recorded. However, users can cease participation at any time by discontinuing wallet interaction.
Privacy by Design: Detask’s architecture minimizes data collection by default.
7️⃣ Legal Compliance
Jurisdictional Compliance: Users are responsible for ensuring their interactions with Detask comply with applicable data protection laws (e.g., GDPR, CCPA).
AML/CFT Considerations: While Detask does not perform KYC, it may integrate on-chain analytics tools to identify and mitigate potential abuse.
DAO Governance: Future adjustments to privacy measures may be proposed and voted on by DTSK token holders, ensuring transparent, community-led policy updates.
8️⃣ Security Measures
Encryption: All on-chain interactions rely on cryptographic protocols (e.g., Ed25519 signatures) inherent to Solana.
Smart Contract Integrity: Code is open-source, audited, and enforced immutably, ensuring deterministic behavior.
Session Isolation: Front-end sessions use standard web security protocols (e.g., HTTPS, CSP) and avoid unnecessary data persistence.
No Central Points of Failure: The decentralized nature of Detask eliminates single points of attack.
9️⃣ Cookies and Tracking
Detask’s front-end may use minimal cookies solely to:
Maintain session state (e.g., wallet connection).
Prevent repeated consent requests. No behavioral tracking, profiling, or third-party marketing cookies are used.
🔟 Third-Party Services
Users should be aware of privacy policies of services interacting with Detask, including but not limited to:
Solana wallet providers (e.g., Phantom, Solflare).
IPFS/Arweave nodes for decentralized storage.
Analytics tools (if used) for front-end performance monitoring.
1️⃣1️⃣ Changes to this Policy
Detask’s Privacy Policy may evolve via governance proposals. Updates will be transparently communicated through official channels and enforced via code updates.
Users should review the GitBook regularly to stay informed.
1️⃣2️⃣ Contact and Questions
Detask does not maintain a centralized contact point. For inquiries:
Participate in Detask’s DAO forums or governance proposals.
Review Detask’s public Git repositories and issue trackers for technical questions.
💡 Summary
Detask’s Privacy Policy reflects its commitment to minimal data collection, immutable transparency, and user sovereignty. Users retain full control over their data via self-custody wallets and interact with a protocol designed for decentralization and resilience.
