★ Privacy Policy

Because the core functionality of Steplete relies on tracking physical activity, the collection of location data is a primary component of our service.

• Real-Time Tracking: To verify your steps and movement for reward eligibility, the App collects precise GPS and Cell-ID location data.
• Background Collection: We may collect this information even when the App is running in the background, provided you have granted permission through your mobile device settings.
• Purpose of Collection: This data is used solely to:
  • Verify the integrity of your movement (preventing GPS spoofing).
  • Calculate distance and step-count for conversion into digital rewards.
  • Populate “Marathon Leaderboards” and community features.
• User Control: You may disable location tracking at any time via your device settings. However, disabling location services will prevent the App from tracking your movement, rendering you ineligible for rewards or token conversions.

• Account Details: Name, email address, and encrypted passwords.
• Financial Data:Digital wallet addresses and transaction history related to the App’s marketplace.
• Technical Data: IP addresses, device model, and operating system versions to ensure software compatibility.

We use your data to maintain the integrity of the Steplete ecosystem. This includes:

• Anti-Cheating Measures: Using Machine Learning to analyze movement patterns and identify fraudulent activity.
• Service Providers: Sharing data with trusted third-party cloud hosts and payment processors who are contractually bound to maintain your privacy.
• Legal Compliance: Disclosing information when required by Panamanian authorities or to comply with Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations.

Under Law 81 of 2019, you possess the “ARCO” rights regarding your data:

• Access: To know what data we hold.
• Rectification: To correct inaccuracies.
• Cancellation: To request deletion of data no longer required for legal purposes.
• Opposition: To object to your data being used for specific purposes (e.g., marketing).

We employ technical security measures, including cryptographic protocols, to protect your data. We retain your personal information only for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with services and comply with legal obligations.

For our users in the EEA and United Kingdom, we process data based on the necessity of performing our contract with you. You have the right to data portability and to lodge a complaint with a relevant supervisory authority.

For any inquiries, data access requests, or privacy concerns, please contact our Data Protection Officer:

We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy. Any changes will be notified via the App interface. Your continued use of the App following such changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
