This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) describes how Vector Smart Chain (“VSC,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and safeguards information obtained from individuals and entities (“you” or “users”) who access or use our blockchain network, related websites, applications, products, or services (collectively, the “Services”).

By accessing or using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to the practices described herein. If you do not agree with this Policy, you must refrain from accessing or using the Services.

1. Information We Collect

a. On-Chain Information

When interacting with the Vector Smart Chain network, the following information is inherently collected and publicly available:

• Wallet Addresses and Public Keys: Required for executing blockchain transactions.
• Transaction Data: Including amounts, counterparties, timestamps, validator information, and network fees.
• Smart Contract Interactions: Calls, deployments, and events triggered on the blockchain.

This information is permanently recorded on a decentralized, immutable ledger and cannot be altered or erased by VSC.

b. Off-Chain Information

Through use of our websites, dashboards, or affiliated platforms, we may collect:

• Identifiers: Such as name, email address, or other contact information when voluntarily provided.
• Account Information: Data you provide by creating an account or submitting forms.
• Technical Information: Including IP addresses, browser type, device information, and activity logs.
• Cookies and Tracking Data: As further described in Section 6 of this Policy.

c. Third-Party Information

Our Services may integrate or interact with third parties (e.g., wallets, exchanges, analytics providers). Data collected by such parties is subject to their respective privacy policies, not ours.

2. Use of Information

We process information for the following purposes:

• To operate, maintain, and enhance the Vector Smart Chain ecosystem.
• To facilitate on-chain transactions and validator operations.
• To provide support, respond to inquiries, and improve user experience.
• To detect, prevent, and investigate fraud, security threats, and unlawful activity.
• To communicate with users regarding updates, governance proposals, events, or promotional opportunities (where consent has been obtained).

3. Disclosure of Information

We do not sell or rent personal data. We may disclose information under the following circumstances:

• Business Transfers: In the context of a merger, acquisition, or corporate restructuring.

4. Data Security

We implement commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect off-chain data. However, users acknowledge that blockchain transactions are irreversible and inherently transparent.
