Welcome to KUTHULU
A pioneering blockchain social media client app developed by DOOMLabs.io. This Privacy Policy is designed to help you understand how we handle the information you provide while using KUTHULU. By engaging with our app, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
1. Data Collection and Usage
1.1 Voluntary Submission
KUTHULU operates on a principle of voluntary data submission. The only mandatory piece of information we require is your wallet address. Beyond this, the app allows you to share additional content, such as posts and messages, at your discretion. Please be aware that once shared, this data becomes part of the public domain, stored on the blockchain.
1.2 Permanent Public Record
Any data shared on KUTHULU is not just public but permanently recorded on the blockchain. This includes your posts, messages, and interactions, which are accessible to a broad audience in real-time and will remain on the blockchain indefinitely.
2. Data Storage
2.1 Blockchain Reliance
KUTHULU leverages blockchain technology for data storage, ensuring a decentralized approach where user data is distributed across the blockchain network.
2.2 Caching for Performance
To enhance performance, KUTHULU employs caching techniques. These involve temporarily storing data for quick access, without altering the decentralized nature of data storage on the blockchain.
3. Data Security
In alignment with the open ethos of blockchain technology, KUTHULU does not encrypt user data. All information shared on the app is publicly accessible, emphasizing our commitment to unfettered expression and access.
4. Data Sharing
KUTHULU embraces the principle of free and open information. All data shared on our platform is publicly available, meaning anyone can access and utilize this information.
5. User Control
5.1 Access and Portability
As a user of KUTHULU, you have complete access to your data at all times. However, due to the immutable nature of blockchain technology, once data is entered onto the blockchain, it cannot be deleted or altered.
5.2 Erasure Limitation
Our app offers a feature to "erase" messages, which removes them from our indexes. While this means the data will no longer appear in app-specific searches or queries, it remains on the blockchain and is not truly erased. Users should be aware of this limitation when sharing information.
6. Compliance and Legal Considerations
KUTHULU operates outside traditional legal compliance frameworks such as GDPR or CCPA. Our platform's decentralized nature means that it does not fall under the typical purview of data protection regulations. However, we encourage users to be mindful of their local laws and regulations when using our app.
7. Changes to the Policy
The dynamic nature of technology and blockchain means that our Privacy Policy may evolve over time. We will communicate any significant changes through the app and on our website, ensuring that our users are always informed of how their data is managed.
8. User Responsibilities
Users of KUTHULU should understand the permanent and public nature of the data they share. It is a platform where information is not just shared but etched into a digital ledger that cannot be altered or expunged. Users are responsible for the content they share and should consider the long-term implications of their posts.
9. Dispute Resolution
As a decentralized application, KUTHULU does not have a central authority or ownership structure capable of intervening in disputes. Users should approach their interactions with the understanding that the platform operates on a self-regulatory basis, with no recourse for content disputes.
