Account Information
When you sign-up, the only data we ask for is a private key and a personal riddle.
We never ask for any personally identifiable information.
For this reason, we do not have any mechanism to restore or reset your account
in case you forget your private key or riddle.
These are stored encrypted in our database at all times.
What you enter in riddlock is encrypted and stored in the offline database and on our servers.
Our encryption mechanism uses your private key, riddles and other dynamically generated
keys to encrypt. To this extent data encryption is unique for every user.
All data items are encrypted with a public-private key pair to enable user connects.
Every data item is thus uniquely encrypted as well.
The only way to expose oneself is by creating a share handle and disclosing it to others.
To stay anonymous, you should not use your name or identity in the share handle.
If you do not want to connect at all, do not create your share handle.
Most importantly, connect with trusted users only.
Personally Identifiable Information
We never ask for any personally identifiable information from our users.
We do not profile them or track their data, device id or IP address.
Our goal is to comply fully with privacy laws worldwide.
Non-Personal Data
Non-personal data is your browsing history, websites you visit, your language preferences
and other such information which does not uniquely identify you.
The only non-personal data riddlock captures is our screens (pages) you open.
We use this information only to know the usage and popularity of our screens and to identify areas of improvement.
Cookies
Many websites and apps use cookies to track user behavior and preferences.
The only cookies we use are system-generated server-side cookies meant for riddlock to run.
We do not use cookies for any type of user profiling or tracking.
Other Websites
Riddlock or your data may contain links to other websites. You must note that since
we do not have any control over such other websites, we cannot be responsible for their
user and data protection policies.
Data Locations
Your data may be transmitted to and stored on servers in your home country or elsewhere.
We choose our data hosting locations based on technical, administrative and financial
parameters with the objective of providing unhindered and high-quality service to our users.
We may also delegate the maintenance, administration and management of data to
employees, affiliates and third parties in different locations.
Data Security
In order to prevent unauthorized access or leakage of user data, we use several
measures, tools and technologies to ensure adequate security in data access, storage and transmission.
We continue to enhance these on an ongoing basis to the best of our ability.
You must however note that data security is a continuously evolving field
that cannot be fully guaranteed in all respects at all times.
Data Retention
In general, your data remains with us for perpetuity, except when you delete it or when you delete your account.
Deleted data is permanently removed (purged) from our database and servers periodically through automated processes.
Also note that we may ourselves delete user accounts that remain inactive for a period of 6 months or more.
General
This privacy policy is part of our terms of use
and must be read and understood in conjunction with those terms.
We may change this privacy policy from time to time.
We recommend that you check it regularly for changes.
