Privacy Policy

Effective Date: September 14, 2024

At dbdff.deadbeatdadscronos.com ("we," "us," or "our"), we are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that your personal information is handled with care. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your data when you use our website and services, including logging in with a Web3 wallet and participating in our simulated fantasy football game. By accessing or using our website, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

Information We Collect

• Web3 Wallet Information: When you log in to our platform using a Web3 wallet (e.g., MetaMask, WalletConnect), we only collect the public wallet address associated with your Web3 wallet. We do not have access to your private keys, seed phrases, or other sensitive wallet information.
• Optional Username: You may choose to provide a username for identification purposes within our fantasy football game. This is optional, and you may choose to participate without providing a username.
• Blockchain Data: Certain activities you perform on our platform, such as interacting with NFTs or tokens, may involve on-chain transactions. These transactions are publicly recorded on the blockchain, which is accessible to anyone. We do not control or store this data.

How We Use This Information

• To Provide and Operate the Fantasy Football Game: Your public wallet address is used to log you into the platform and to manage your game participation, including lineup submissions and in-game activities.
• To Facilitate Blockchain Transactions: Any transactions involving the use of NFTs, tokens, or other blockchain-related activities are facilitated using your Web3 wallet.
• To Improve User Experience: If you choose to provide a username, we use it to improve social interactions and enhance the user experience within the game.

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We will never use your personal data for advertising, marketing, or selling it to external parties, with the exception that your Web3 wallet address or optional username could appear in Dead Beat Dads advertising, marketing, or educational content.

Data Security

We take the security of your data seriously. However, as the platform relies on Web3 wallets, it is essential that you safeguard your wallet credentials (such as private keys and seed phrases). We recommend that you:

• ○ Use strong passwords and keep them secure.
• ○ Store your private keys and recovery phrases in a secure location.
• ○ Be cautious of phishing scams and unauthorized wallet access.

Wallet Responsibility

Your account on our platform is connected through your Web3 wallet, which serves as your primary login method. By using a Web3 wallet to log in, you acknowledge and agree to the following:

• Wallet Responsibility: You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your Web3 wallet, including your private keys and login credentials. We do not store your wallet credentials and will not be liable for any unauthorized access to or use of your wallet.
• Gas Fees: Any blockchain transaction fees ("gas fees") associated with wallet transactions, such as minting NFTs or transferring tokens, are your sole responsibility.
• Transaction Irreversibility: Transactions on the blockchain are final and cannot be reversed. You understand that any purchases, sales, or transfers made via your Web3 wallet are irreversible once confirmed on the blockchain.

Blockchain Technology

Blockchain technology operates on the principle of transparency and decentralization. Any on-chain transactions you make will be publicly visible on the blockchain. This includes your wallet address and transaction details, but not your personal identity (unless you choose to link it to your wallet).

Because blockchain data is immutable and public, we cannot delete or alter transaction data stored on the blockchain. However, this data is not personally identifiable unless you voluntarily provide additional information (e.g., linking your username or other identifying details).

Cookies and Tracking

We do not use tracking technologies such as cookies, beacons, or pixels to collect or track user behavior on our website. Our focus is on maintaining your privacy while using our platform. If in the future we decide to implement cookies or other tracking mechanisms, we will update this policy and provide appropriate opt-in options.

Cookies are however used for the functionality of signing in and participating in the fantasy football game. Cookies are not used outside of assisting in access to and participating in fantasy football game play.

Third Party Services

We may use third-party services to help operate our platform, such as hosting or api providers. However, these third parties do not have access to your personal information beyond what is necessary to provide their services. We do not share your wallet information, username, or any other personal data with these third parties except as required to maintain the functionality of the website.

Any interactions you have with third-party blockchain services (e.g., decentralized exchanges, wallets, or NFT marketplaces) are governed by the respective privacy policies of those services. We are not responsible for the data handling practices of third-party platforms that you interact with outside of our website.

Your Privacy Rights

As a user of our platform, you have the following rights:

• Access: You have the right to know what personal information we collect about you. Since we collect minimal information (wallet address and optional username), you can view this directly by accessing your account or reviewing your wallet interactions.
• Data Minimizations: You can choose not to provide a username, which limits the amount of personal data we collect.
• Blockchain Rights: While we do not control blockchain data, you can manage your interactions on-chain using your Web3 wallet. You are responsible for safeguarding your wallet's private keys and managing any blockchain-related transactions.

Children's Policy

Our platform is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected data from a child under the age of 18, we will take steps to delete such information from our systems.

Changes to the Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, technical, or regulatory reasons. Any updates will be posted on this page with a new "Effective Date." We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting your privacy.

By using the Website, logging in with your Web3 wallet, and participating in our fantasy football game, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to this Privacy Policy.
