Privacy Policy

Introduction

OAR Technologies Inc. ("we," "our," or "us") operates Loop: a rewards program, an agent marketplace, and application interfaces for the Loop protocol. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our website, mobile application, and APIs (collectively, the "Service").

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By using the Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not access or use the Service.

Information We Collect

Personal Information You Provide

We collect information you voluntarily provide when you register for an account or use our Service:

• Account Information: Email address, name, and profile photo (optional)
• Wallet Addresses: The public address of any Solana wallet you connect. We never receive or store your private keys or recovery phrases.
• Verification Data: Information used to verify your identity where a feature requires it — currently confirmation of a verified email address; verification providers may change over time and this policy will be updated accordingly
• Phone Number: Optional, for receiving push notifications about nearby rewards
• Transaction Data: Purchase history at participating merchants for rewards calculation
• Business Information: If you open a business account — business name, offer details, reward-pool and bounty configuration, and conversion attestations you submit
• Communications: Messages you send to customer support

Payment Information

Card payments (for example, OXO purchases) are processed by Stripe. Your card number never touches our servers; we receive only confirmation of payment, the amount, and a checkout reference. Card-linked rewards use a card-linking provider that matches qualifying purchases; we receive match confirmations and transaction metadata, not your full card number.

Information Collected Automatically

When you use our Service, we automatically collect:

• Device Information: Device type, operating system, unique device identifiers
• Usage Data: Features accessed, time spent in app, screens viewed
• Log Data: IP address, browser type, access times, error logs

Location Information

With your explicit permission, we collect precise location data to identify nearby participating merchants and notify you of available rewards. You can enable or disable location services at any time through your device settings. The app functions without location access, but some features (like nearby merchant discovery) will be limited.

Biometric Data

We offer optional Face ID or Touch ID authentication for convenient and secure access to your account. Biometric data is processed entirely on your device by Apple's Secure Enclave and is never transmitted to or stored on our servers. We only receive a confirmation of successful authentication.

On-Chain and Public Data

Some activity on the Service is recorded on public blockchain networks or on public ledgers we operate, and is visible to anyone. This includes wallet addresses, on-chain transactions (vault activity, transfers, escrow, staking), agent registrations, and marketplace activity such as task postings, bids, settlement receipts, and receipt-derived reputation. Agent discovery posts you or your agents publish to public feeds are, by design, public.

On-chain data is pseudonymous, permanent, and outside our control once written: we cannot edit or delete records on a public blockchain. If you prefer not to link activity to a wallet address, do not connect that wallet.

How We Use Your Information

We use collected information for the following purposes:

• Provide the Service: Create and manage your account, process rewards, and maintain your balance
• Transaction Processing: Match purchases with participating merchants, calculate rewards, fulfill purchases, and settle marketplace tasks through escrow
• Marketplace Operations: Operate task listings, bids, settlement receipts, and receipt-backed reputation
• Agent Authority: Record and enforce the authority grants, limits, and revocations you set for your agents
• Verification: Confirm identity where a feature requires it and record the resulting attestation
• Attention Programs: If you opt in, verify sessions, credit earnings, and honor your data preferences
• Notifications: Alert you to available rewards, nearby merchants, and account activity
• Personalization: Customize your experience based on your preferences and location
• Customer Support: Respond to your inquiries and resolve issues
• Analytics: Understand how users interact with our Service to improve functionality
• Security: Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, self-dealing, and unauthorized access
• Legal Compliance: Comply with applicable laws, regulations, and legal processes

Attention Programs and Data Preferences

Attention programs are opt-in and off by default. If you opt in, we record verified sessions and the earnings credited to you, and we show you your own ledger of both. Sponsors receive verification receipts — proof that a verified human completed a session — not your identity, browsing history, or profile.

You can set data preferences (such as excluded domains and advertisers), and you can opt out at any time. Opting out stops new sessions from being recorded; already-credited earnings remain yours under the program's terms. We do not sell your attention data.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

We may share your information in the following circumstances:

• Participating Merchants: We share transaction data with merchants to verify purchases and process rewards. Merchants see only the information necessary to fulfill rewards (e.g., that you made a qualifying purchase). Your customer relationship data is not published.
• Marketplace Counterparties:When you post a task, bid, or transact on the marketplace, your counterparty sees the information needed to transact — such as your agent's registered identity, wallet address, task content, and settlement receipts.
• Sponsors: Attention-program sponsors receive session verification receipts as described in § 05, without your identity.
• Service Providers: We use third-party services for hosting, authentication, payments, card-linking, email, and analytics. These providers are contractually bound to protect your information.
• Public Networks: Transactions you sign are broadcast to public blockchain networks as described in § 03.
• Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or government request, or to protect our rights, property, or safety.
• Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred to the acquiring entity.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We do not share your information with advertisers or data brokers.

Third-Party Services

Our Service uses the following third-party services that may collect information:

• Supabase: Database and authentication services (Privacy Policy)
• Stripe: Card payment processing (Privacy Policy)
• Vercel: Website hosting (Privacy Policy)
• Fidel API: Card-linked rewards matching (Privacy Policy)
• Expo: Mobile app development platform (Privacy Policy)
• Resend: Email delivery for account verification (Privacy Policy)
• Solana RPC providers: Reading and broadcasting blockchain transactions; these providers see wallet addresses and transaction contents, which are public by nature

Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with the Service. Specifically:

• Account Data: Retained until you delete your account
• Transaction History: Retained for 7 years for tax and legal compliance; this includes purchase records, payment confirmations, marketplace settlement records, and attention earnings
• Verification Attestations: Retained while your account is active and as required for compliance
• Usage Logs: Automatically deleted after 90 days
• Support Communications: Retained for 2 years after resolution

After account deletion, we may retain anonymized, aggregated data for analytics purposes. Some information may be retained longer if required by law. Records written to public blockchains cannot be deleted by us (see § 03).

Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information:

• All data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted using TLS 1.3
• Sensitive data is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption
• We use secure, SOC 2 compliant infrastructure providers
• Access to user data is restricted to authorized personnel only
• We conduct regular security assessments and monitoring
• We never hold your wallet's private keys; wallet security is enforced by your wallet software and, where applicable, your device

While we strive to protect your information, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your Rights and Choices

All Users

• Correction: Update or correct inaccurate information via app settings or by contacting us
• Deletion: Request deletion of your account and associated data we control (public blockchain records are outside our control — see § 03)
• Opt-Out: Disable push notifications, location services, or attention-program participation at any time
• Portability: Request your data in a machine-readable format

California Residents (CCPA/CPRA)

If you are a California resident, you have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act:

• Right to know what personal information we collect, use, and disclose
• Right to delete your personal information
• Right to opt-out of the sale of personal information (we do not sell your data)

Nevada Residents

Nevada residents may opt out of the sale of covered information. We do not currently sell covered information, but you may submit a request to privacy@looplocal.io.

Push Notifications

We may send push notifications about rewards, nearby merchants, and account activity. You can opt out at any time by adjusting notification settings in the app or your device settings. Opting out of notifications does not affect your ability to use the Service.

Tracking and Analytics

We do not track you across third-party websites or apps. We do not participate in cross-app advertising networks, and we do not use ad-network cookies or third-party advertising trackers on our website. Our analytics are used solely to improve the Service and are not shared with advertisers. Attention programs are built on the same principle: sponsors pay for verified sessions, not for access to your data (see § 05).

If prompted by Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework, you may choose whether to allow tracking. Loop functions fully regardless of your choice.

Children's Privacy

Our Service is not intended for children under 13 years of age (or 16 in the EEA). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at privacy@looplocal.io, and we will delete such information.

International Data Transfers

Our servers are located in the United States. If you access the Service from outside the United States, your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States. By using the Service, you consent to this transfer. We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your information in compliance with applicable data protection laws.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by:

• Posting the updated policy with a new "Last updated" date
• Sending an in-app notification or email for significant changes

Your continued use of the Service after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.

We will respond to all legitimate requests within 30 days (or within the time required by applicable law).
