A. Vector Application And Website

This privacy policy applies to your use of the Vector application, backend services and website pages associated with Vector (collectively, “Vector”). In this privacy policy “we” or “us” refers to Tensor Labs Inc., a Canadian federal corporation.

If you obtain the Vector application through an app store, you should also be aware that app stores have their own data collection practices, and we encourage you to read their privacy policy as well.

B. Privacy By Design

We have designed Vector to minimize the impact on your privacy as a user, and we encourage you to read this privacy policy to understand what we do collect, how we use it, and your rights with respect to your personal information.

C. Your Personal Information

We collect the following information that we consider to be “personal information:”

  1. Email address
  2. IP addresses (and other device identifiers)
  3. Cryptocurrency addresses that you use and interact with

We take a broad view of personal information to account for the ability to correlate information in ways that can deanonymize them, and we treat all information that could potentially be used to identify a person as personal information.

We do not consider the pseudonymous public username that you may use in Vector as personal information (or links to other profiles, such as a Twitter handle) per se, but it is possible that you could use your real name or some other identifier that could cause what would otherwise not be personal information to be personally identifiable and therefore personal information.

Additionally, if you contact our customer support team, email us, participate in a contest, apply to work for us (or to be a contractor), or otherwise communicate personal information to us (that is not required to use Vector) then we may collect other personal information about you that you choose to disclose as part of that process.

D. Why We Collect Personal Information

Personal Information Why Is It Collected?
Email Address In order to connect the Privy key management system with Vector. We also may use your email address to contact you about this privacy policy, other legal agreements, or critical information about your use of Vector.
IP Address And Other Device Identifiers All Internet connections to backend services expose an IP address (not necessarily a device-specific one, depending on how you access the Internet). Since Vector relies on various backend services, your IP address is collected as part of the connection process. Similarly, various other device identifiers and metadata about your device is automatically communicated when you use the Internet to access applications, and Vector is no different from other applications in this respect. All of this information is sent by your device and automatically collected as part of your use of Vector.
Cryptocurrency Address In order to provide data about cryptocurrency addresses owned by you we need to know which addresses belong to you, so that the backend services can provide the right data and not more data than you need, in order to minimize bandwidth consumption and make Vector functional as a mobile wallet. In addition to this necessary purpose for collection, we also collect this information as part of our legal obligations to avoid serving certain sanctioned cryptocurrency addresses under international laws. Additionally, we collect cryptocurrency address information in order to help provide you with services that you have requested, such as programs offered by Designees.
Username To provide a more user-friendly experience for yourself and other users who interact with you. There may also be an image associated with a username (and potentially links to social media accounts such as Twitter, and related metadata, such as follower counts), which forms an overall “avatar”, which is collected in order to improve your experience. Avatars are an optional system that you can choose not to use. Avatars are not private information in Vector and may be available to other users, depending on your visibility settings.

Vector is constantly being improved and we make use of your personal information and other data in order to understand how we can make the best improvements. We do not sell or rent your personal information to other companies.

E. Designee Programs

You may be able to participate in a Designee program offered by a third-party, which requires us to send personal information and other information to the selected third-party. We only provide information to Designees that have contractually guaranteed confidentiality and we do not provide Designees with your email address. Designees may have their own terms and privacy policies that cover their services to you and we encourage you to consult those documents to learn more. By using Vector you consent to the transfer of information necessary for the Designees to offer their services to you, which may involve transfers of information to countries other than those that Vector operates in.

F. What We Don’t Collect
