# Security & Privacy Notes

<figure><img src="/files/tEilmr0eOWPXswL2HnF7" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

### **Equinox AI is committed to balancing intelligence delivery with strict respect for user privacy and systemic security. The architecture has been designed with core principles of auditability, transparency, data sovereignty, and user control.**

***

#### Privacy-by-Design Principles

* No data scraping from gated/private sources
* Social enrichment is limited to publicly visible metadata
* All opt-out requests are irreversible and cryptographically timestamped
* Telegram and X user-linking is performed using heuristic, not deterministic, logic

***

#### System-Level Security

* Internal APIs rate-limited and non-public by default
* Enrichment modules sandboxed and isolated by source type
* Automated monitoring for misuse, excessive scanning, or pattern abuse
* Future plans for zero-knowledge implementation in signal delivery pipelines

***

#### Responsible Intelligence Ethics

Equinox is not a surveillance system. We provide accessible behavioural data intelligence with respect for consent boundaries. Users and protocols interacting with our tools are required to respect our Terms of Use and uphold privacy-safe applications of the data.

***

#### Additional User Controls&#x20;

| Feature                         | Status   |
| ------------------------------- | -------- |
| E-Mask opt-out burn             | Upcoming |
| Opt-out weekly slots            | Upcoming |
| Consent-based enrichment embeds | Planned  |
| Staked access with limits       | Planned  |

**We are designing infrastructure for trust. Security audits, transparency reports, and privacy logs will be published alongside future infrastructure releases.**
