4. Analytics
Third party analytics tools collect or use information about your use of the Interface, which helps us improve the Interface. We want to process as little personal information as possible when you use the Interface. That's why we've chosen Fathom Analytics for Interface analytics, which doesn't use cookies and complies with the GDPR, ePrivacy (including PECR), COPPA, and CCPA. Using this privacy-friendly website analytics software, your IP address is only briefly processed, and we (running this website) have no way of identifying you. As per the CCPA, your personal information is de-identified. You can read more about this on Fathom Analytics' website.
However, if you’d like to entirely exclude your anonymized visits from showing up in our analytics, go to the Fathom Analytics Exclude Your Visits page for opt-out instructions.
5. Sanctions and Risk Management
We use Chainalysis, a third party blockchain intelligence service provider to detect, prevent, and mitigate financial crime and other illicit or harmful activities on the Interface. Chainalysis combines on-chain data and real-world investigations to identify financial crime and other high-risk activities. Perennial applies an industry-wide standard of risk categories (e.g., sanctions, ransomware, child exploitation, stolen funds). Addresses that fall into a risk category are blocked from accessing the Perennial App. User wallet addresses connecting to the Perennial app will be cross-checked using a Chainalysis on-chain oracle with designated risk categories. Users are not identified in this risk-assessment process. We do not retain the information we collect any longer than necessary for these purposes.
We record blocked address events that occur through the Chainalysis API.
6. Governmental Entities
We may combine any information collected with information made available in third party databases and public sources. We may use such information to address claims, to respond to governmental inquires or requests, or to investigate issues. Further, such information may be shared with governmental entities including criminal, civil, and, regulatory agencies. Please be aware that we may keep copies of your information subject to our internal retention policies for the purposes of abiding by Applicable Laws or to prevent fraud or injury to a third party.

10. Security Measures
We make reasonable attempts to protect your information by using physical and electronic safeguards such as encryption. However, as the Interface relies on Blockchain Technology and electronic infrastructure that we have no control over, we can make no guarantees as to the security or privacy of your information submitted.
