Privacy Policy

2key Network Privacy Policy

The philosophy that led to building the 2key network, where the simple act of sharing useful information on the web is fairly and automatically rewarded, relies squarely on the decentralized economy goal to promote individualized empowerment. Among other things, this means restoring ownership of personal data.
During the transitional period between the current Web2.0 and the mass adoption of Web3.0, some amount of data collection is still necessary to operate, and we keep such data collection to a strict minimum.
Our mission is to restore ownership and financial benefits of information exchange to each individual and to redistribute the Internet wealth to users instead of concentrating it in the hands of a few mega-corporations that leveraged Web 2.0 reliance on middlemen for personal enrichment and accumulation of power.

Based on blockchain technology, 2key automatically redistributes the lion’s share of revenue to active users in proportion to their contribution. This requires recording and encrypting users’ activity to enable the smooth running of smart-contracts. Due to the immutable nature of information recorded on a blockchain, this information can never be deleted and its encrypted content is always publicly available.

The use of minimum personal data collected to enable hybrid Web2.0/Web3.0 functioning is delineated below.
