Last updated: April 3, 2023

Introduction

At WorldScore, we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our decentralized credit score platform. Please read this privacy policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this privacy policy, please do not access the platform.

Information We Collect

As a decentralized platform, we minimize the amount of personal data we collect and store centrally. However, to provide our services, we may collect the following types of information:

Personal Information

  • Email address (for communication purposes)
  • Blockchain wallet addresses
  • Information you provide when creating an account

Financial Information

To generate your credit score, our system analyzes financial data such as:

  • Transaction history (with your explicit permission)
  • Loan repayment records
  • Other financial behaviors relevant to credit scoring

This information is processed in a decentralized manner, with cryptographic techniques ensuring that only the minimum necessary data is shared with our systems.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Generate and maintain your decentralized credit score
  • Improve and optimize our platform
  • Communicate with you about your account and provide customer support
  • Detect and prevent fraudulent activities
  • Comply with legal obligations

Decentralized Data Storage

As a decentralized platform, much of your data is stored on blockchain technology rather than centralized servers. This means:

  • Your data is distributed across a network rather than stored in a single location
  • You maintain control over your personal information through cryptographic keys
  • Information on the blockchain is immutable and cannot be altered retroactively

Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information in the following circumstances:

  • With your explicit consent, such as when you choose to share your credit score with a lender
  • To comply with legal obligations
  • To protect and defend our rights and property
  • With service providers who help us operate our platform, subject to strict confidentiality agreements

Your Rights and Choices

You have several rights regarding your personal information:

  • Access and update your personal information
  • Request deletion of your account and associated data (except for blockchain data which cannot be deleted due to the nature of the technology)
  • Control what financial information is connected to your WorldScore profile
  • Opt out of marketing communications

Security Measures

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information:

  • Encryption of sensitive data
  • Regular security assessments
  • Strict access controls for our systems
  • Continuous monitoring for potential vulnerabilities
