INTRODUCTION

This Privacy Policy describes how we, Wallchain (“we”, “our”, “us”), collect, use, process, and disclose your Personal Data in connection with your use of the Website and the Services, including our proprietary X Score and AttentionFi ecosystem. This Policy is structured into three parts: the Privacy Notice, the Cookie Notice, and the Data Processing Agreement (DPA) Placeholder. The Services are provided subject to our Terms and Conditions of Service (the “Terms”). Children: The Website and Services are restricted to persons who are at least 18 years of age due to the complex and financial nature of the Web3 ecosystem. We do not knowingly collect personal data from people who are less than 18 years of age.

C. Legal Obligation (Article 6(1)(c) GDPR): We process data for Security & Compliance, including fulfilling AML/KYC requirements, preventing fraud, and complying with all applicable legal obligations (e.g., responding to data privacy requests).

5.2. Blockchain Network Participants (CRITICAL DISCLOSURE)

Due to the nature of distributed ledger technology (DLT), any Personal Data recorded on a public blockchain network (such as your Digital Wallet address and associated transaction history) may be transparent, immutable, and accessible to third parties globally. We do not control or operate these decentralized networks.

5.3. Public Display (AttentionFi Mechanism)

As detailed in our Terms, by using the Service, you expressly consent to the public disclosure and display of your User Profile Data across our Platform, leaderboards, and related promotional materials as a core function of the AttentionFi mechanism.

6. Data Transfers, Security, and Retention
