Blockchain Transparency

All transactions processed through Nova402 are recorded on public blockchains. This means transaction data, including wallet addresses, amounts, and timestamps, are permanently visible on the blockchain and cannot be deleted or modified. We have no control over blockchain data once transactions are confirmed.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information with:

• Service Providers: Third-party blockchain networks and node providers
• x402 Protocol: PayAI facilitator infrastructure for payment processing
• Legal Requirements: When required by law or to protect our rights
• Business Transfers: In connection with mergers, acquisitions, or asset sales

Non-Custodial Infrastructure

Nova402 operates as non-custodial infrastructure. We never hold, control, or have access to your private keys or funds. All transactions are peer-to-peer between users and service providers. You maintain full control over your wallet and assets at all times.

Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information, including encryption, secure connections (HTTPS), and regular security audits. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights:

• Access to the information we hold about you
• Correction of inaccurate information
• Deletion of your information (subject to legal requirements)
• Object to or restrict certain processing activities
• Data portability
• Withdrawal of consent

Note: Blockchain transaction data cannot be deleted due to the immutable nature of blockchain technology.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience, analyze platform usage, and maintain session information. You can control cookie preferences through your browser settings, though this may affect platform functionality.

Third-Party Services

Our platform integrates with third-party services including blockchain networks, wallet providers (MetaMask, Phantom, etc.), and the PayAI x402 protocol infrastructure. These services have their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them.

International Users

Nova402 operates globally. If you access our services from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in countries where we operate. By using our services, you consent to such transfers.

Children's Privacy

Our services are not intended for individuals under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If you become aware that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of our services after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
