Privacy Policy
Effective Date: 25 June 2025
This Privacy Policy explains how the Autopilot protocol (“Autopilot” or “the Protocol”) handles user data.
Autopilot is a non-custodial, decentralized automation system operating fully on-chain across multiple networks, including Base and Optimism.
It does not collect personal information, store user data, or control any off-chain user information.
1. Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to anyone who accesses, uses, or interacts with the Autopilot protocol, website, or documentation.
2. Data Collection
Autopilot does not collect, track, or store any personally identifiable information (PII). The Protocol is entirely permissionless and non-custodial.
Autopilot:
Does not require user registration
Does not track wallet balances or user behavior
Does not store names, emails, or contact details
Does not collect IP addresses, device identifiers, or metadata
The only information visible through Autopilot is public blockchain data.
Autopilot is not a “data controller” or “data processor” under GDPR, CCPA, or other data-protection regulations, as it does not collect, process, or store personal information.
3. On-Chain Transparency
All actions within Autopilot are executed and logged on-chain. This includes:
veAERO and veVELO deposits
Voting allocations and rewards
Reward claiming and USDC conversion
Withdrawals
All activity is recorded on the relevant blockchain (Base or Optimism) and is publicly accessible. Autopilot does not hide, censor, or control on-chain data. Users should assume all blockchain transactions are public and may be analyzed by third parties.
4. Website Analytics
Autopilot may use privacy-focused analytics tools on its public website (not within the on-chain protocol). These tools:
Do not collect wallet addresses or blockchain activity
Are limited to anonymized frontend metrics (browser type, session length, page views)
Are used only to improve usability and performance
Data collection on the website follows a data-minimization approach and remains fully optional. Users can disable cookies or use privacy tools to block tracking entirely.
5. Third-Party Links
The Autopilot website or documentation may include links to third-party sites. Autopilot is not responsible for the content, practices, or privacy policies of external platforms.
6. Wallet Connection
Autopilot interacts with user wallets through standard Web3 connection protocols (e.g., MetaMask, WalletConnect). All connections occur client-side. Autopilot:
Does not access or store private keys or seed phrases
Does not initiate transactions without explicit user approval
Users are solely responsible for safeguarding their wallet credentials.
7. Smart Contract Interactions
All user actions occur directly on-chain. Autopilot has no access to user funds and no control over how the blockchain records or transmits data. All smart-contract interactions are voluntary and initiated by the user.
8. Children’s Privacy
Autopilot is not intended for individuals under 18 years of age. No information is knowingly collected from minors.
9. Changes and Continued Use
This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically. Users are encouraged to review it regularly to remain informed. Continued use of the Protocol or website constitutes acceptance of the latest version.
