Privacy Policy

1. Corporate Identity & Scope

This Privacy Policy describes how Plotnikov LLC (“Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”), a Texas limited liability company with its primary office at 5900 Balcones Drive, STE 100, Austin, TX, 78731, US, collects, protects, and handles your personal and business data.

This policy applies to all registered Advertisers (“Brands”), Independent Content Creators (“Creators”), and unauthenticated visitors interacting with the CollabScan platform and contract infrastructure (“Platform”). By creating an account or initiating a Direct Contract, you explicitly consent to the data processing architectures outlined herein.

2. Information We Collect

Account & Corporate Identity Data: Full legal name, corporate business registration records, email address, physical billing addresses, and secure authentication metadata provided via third-party Single Sign-On (SSO) protocols (Google, Apple ID, Telegram, LinkedIn).

Social Channel Verification & Metric Data: Public account metrics, follower or subscriber counts, historical engagement rates (ER), and metadata extracted from verified platforms (YouTube, Telegram, Instagram, TikTok). This includes API read-only authorization tokens or text-string verification codes used to validate channel ownership.

Financial & Transactional Metadata: Public wallet addresses used for cryptographic escrow settlements (USDT/USDC). For fiat transactions, billing data, metadata, and tokenized receipts are handled via Stripe Inc. The Platform stores transaction histories, invoice parameters, contract prices, and distribution breakdowns required for accounting and internal tax purposes.

Fulfillment Verification Logs: Live links to published promotional content, timestamps, raw HTML responses, and parsing logs captured by our automated Daily Uptime Scan engine.

3. How We Use Your Data

To Operate and Automate the Service: Processing user registration, managing active Direct Contracts, rendering internal contract chat logs, and maintaining individual user profiles.

To Execute Automated Compliance and Escrow Disbursal: Providing the Daily Uptime Scan engine with crawling parameters to verify that promotional links, tracking parameters, UTM codes, and promo codes match contract definitions in order to safely unlock escrow distributions.

To Optimize AI Matchmaking: Feeding anonymized historical category performance and public metrics into our internal AI recommendation logic to help Brands locate relevant Creators.

To Mediate Disputes: Reviewing system validation logs and text conversations within the internal contract chat when a formal dispute or arbitration flag is manually or automatically triggered.

4. Data Sharing & Third-Party Processors

We do not sell, rent, or lease your personal or corporate data to data brokers or third-party marketing networks. To maintain an operational B2B platform, data is securely shared with the following infrastructure and service categories:

Payment Processors: Credit card and bank transactional data is securely routed directly through Stripe Inc. inside an isolated iframe or redirect. Your payment configurations are subject to Stripe’s independent privacy frameworks.

Public Ledger Protocols: Cryptographic disbursements and contract fundings via stablecoins require broadcasting your public wallet address and transaction hash to public decentralized networks (e.g., Polygon, TRON, Arbitrum).

Hosting & Cloud Infrastructure: Core operational databases, media assets, and server components are deployed on highly secure, compliant cloud environments utilizing encryption at rest and in transit.

5. Security Frameworks & Non-Custodial Safeguards

We employ comprehensive technical countermeasures including End-to-End Transport Layer Security (TLS/SSL encryption), network firewalls, and stringent internal access control protocols to prevent unauthorized data leaks or alterations.

The Platform never requests, processes, or stores your private Web3 cryptographic keys or seed phrases. All on-chain asset allocations are performed via direct, client-side cryptographic injections (such as WalletConnect or browser extensions) or programmatic business bank rails managed by Plotnikov LLC.

6. Regulatory Retention Policies

In accordance with the internal regulations of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) of the United States and state corporate compliance laws of Texas, financial transaction records, contractual agreements, and payment metadata will be securely archived for a minimum duration of seven (7) years following the closure of a transaction or account termination.

Non-financial technical access logs, system tracking cookies, and verification caches are automatically purged or thoroughly anonymized within a rolling window of ninety (90) days to preserve host machine efficiencies.

7. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

We use a limited set of cookies to operate the Platform and collect anonymized analytics data to improve your experience.

Essential Cookies: "cookie_consent" stores your analytics preference for 12 months. "lang" stores your selected display language for 12 months. "auth_token" is a session cookie issued only to authenticated users and is required to maintain a secure login session.

Analytics Cookies: We use Google Analytics 4 (Google LLC) via the gtag.js library to collect anonymized data about page views, session duration, and navigation patterns. These cookies ("_ga", "_ga_*") are enabled by default. You may opt out at any time using the Analytics Preferences section below or by clicking "Opt out" in the cookie notice.

We do not use advertising, retargeting, or third-party profiling cookies of any kind.

8. Regional Rights & Privacy Controls

Depending on your operational jurisdiction (including frameworks under CCPA or GDPR), you maintain explicit legal rights to request access to, correction of, porting of, or the definitive extraction and deletion of your personal data records held by the Company.

To trigger a comprehensive profile purge or request a copy of your personal data archive, you may initiate a formal ticket by contacting [email protected]. Please note that regulatory financial data required under retention laws cannot be deleted prior to statutory limits.

Privacy via Personal Blacklists: When you use the built-in Blacklist (“BL”) tool, your profile information, open briefs, and project metrics are immediately hidden from the blacklisted entity via application-level access rules, preventing unwanted peer profiling.

9. Modifications & Contact

We reserve the structural right to alter this Privacy Policy at any time. Changes take immediate effect upon publishing an updated version here, indicated by the modified “Last Updated” metric. If an update fundamentally changes your data rights, we will deploy an application notification or dispatch an email broadcast to registered accounts.
