Deleting your data. Right to erasure. Immutable ledger

According to our policy you may request deletion of your data from our centralized servers. Under centralized servers we mean our application and API layer services that are hosted centrally and may store your data in databases. You should be aware that some copies or traces of your data may remain in decetralized records (“immutable ledger”) or in the storages of 3rd parties such as other users and entities that participate in our ecosystem.

Decentralized records or “immutable ledger”. Due to immutable nature of distributed ledger technology, network nodes operated by the participants of our ecosystem may still retain data such as historical transactions generated by your account, or transactions generated by other users in relation to your account. Normally this data would not include your personally identifiable information such as name, e-mail etc. However, in case a 3rd party creates their own record matching your decentralized identity (such as ETH address or wallet address) with your personal information such as your name, they may retain a capability to retrieve your historical transactions from the system even after you have deleted your account and data. This is due to the immutable and open nature of distributed ledger technology that are being used. Deleting such historical transaction data from the immutable ledger is not possible. Please consider this carefully and do not proceed with using our services if you do not accept this.

Deleting your data yourself. Go to the application menu, choose “Privacy and Data”. Navigate to “Manage Data” tab. Click “Delete my account” and follow the instructions. Please note this will delete your account and other account-related data stored at our centralized servers which means you will not be able to use our services after you perform this action, unless you create a new account and fill it with new data.

Requesting data deletion over e-mail. Please e-mail us at privacy <AT sign> dappros.com specifying your account details such your name and e-mail. We will verify your identity and proceed with deleting your data within 14 working days.
