Security and Privacy

At Grip AI, we prioritize user security and privacy while maintaining a transparent and decentralized AI ecosystem. Our system is designed to ensure that users have full control over their data and that no unauthorized third parties can access personal information.

User Data Protection

• Grip AI does not store sensitive personal information.

• User authentication is managed through MetaMask, meaning Grip AI does not have access to private keys or personal credentials.

• AI interactions occur off-chain, ensuring a seamless and responsive experience while limiting unnecessary exposure of user data on the blockchain.

• Blockchain transactions are only used for:

  • Energy charging (purchasing and consuming energy).

  • Monetization distribution (rewarding AI creators and infrastructure providers).

  • Governance-related actions (voting and proposal participation).

Data Retention and Deletion

• Users have the ability to opt out and delete all history and associated information related to their interactions.

• AI interaction history is stored off-chain and can be permanently deleted upon user request.

• As Grip AI is decentralized, blockchain transactions (such as energy consumption, payments, and governance votes) remain immutable and cannot be erased.

Third-Party Access to User Information

• Grip AI does not share, sell, or grant third parties access to user data.

• AI Model Runners (Infrastructure Providers) only process user queries but do not store user interaction data.

• No external advertisers, analytics firms, or third-party platforms have access to user interactions or accounts.

User Anonymity

• Grip AI operates on a wallet-based authentication system, ensuring users remain pseudonymous unless they choose to disclose additional information.

• Since AI interactions are off-chain, they do not create public records on the blockchain.

Incident Response & Security Audits

• Regular security audits are conducted on Grip AI’s smart contracts and infrastructure to maintain system integrity.

• Users are encouraged to report security concerns, and Grip AI will take immediate action in case of any potential security threats.

• AI interactions are monitored for malicious activity to ensure compliance with platform security policies.

By upholding these security and privacy principles, Grip AI ensures a trustworthy, transparent, and user-controlled environment where AI interactions remain secure and decentralized.
