Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2025

Introduction

CYRUS is an independent, community-driven project dedicated to celebrating and preserving Persian cultural heritage worldwide. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any government or political entity. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use cyrus.gold and related CYRUS web services.

By using our services, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

Information We Collect

We collect minimal information necessary to provide our services:

• Wallet addresses: Your Base wallet address is used to facilitate on-chain transactions. Wallet addresses are public on the Base blockchain by design.
• Community support data: If you contact us through linked community channels, we may receive the username or identifier you choose to share through that platform.
• Usage data: Basic analytics such as page views and feature usage to improve the experience. No personally identifiable information is collected through analytics.

How We Use Information

Information is used solely to operate and improve CYRUS services:

• Processing token transactions and displaying wallet balances
• Providing community features such as the leaderboard and governance participation
• Improving site performance and user experience

Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade any user information. We do not share data with third parties except as required to operate the service (e.g., transactions on the public Base blockchain, hosting on Vercel). Blockchain transactions are inherently public and visible to anyone.

Blockchain Data

CYRUS operates on the Base blockchain. All token transactions, balances, and smart contract interactions are recorded on the public blockchain. This data is permanent, transparent, and accessible to anyone. We do not control or have the ability to delete on-chain data.

Cookies

We use only essential, functional cookies required for the site to operate (such as locale preference). We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.

Your Rights

You may stop using our services at any time. Since we collect minimal off-chain data, there is generally no personal data to request deletion of. On-chain data (transactions, balances) cannot be modified or deleted as it is part of the public blockchain record.

Children's Privacy

Our services are not directed at individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
