Data should carry meaning—not surveillance
What XO knows.
What XO cannot know.
This page describes the current founding preview in plain language. It is an operational transparency note, not yet the final legal privacy notice required before a wider public campaign.

What you choose
to contribute.
World Box launch listEmail address, consent text and consent time in a private consent receipt
Only World Box progress and launch updates. Managed by XO. Contact foundry@xo.box for withdrawal, correction, access or deletion. See the World Box page for the list-specific notice.
XO Collection trialA hash of your sign-in identifier, your verified public wallet address, wallet-link challenge data, stable card identifiers, the assigned Lumen route and its reveal commitment, and any NFC link you create
To restore your own cards, verify wallet control, keep a reveal unchanged and replace an NFC link without replacing the card. Card details require the owning account. QR and NFC links contain a locator, not a wallet key or access grant. Unlinking the wallet keeps your cards; replacing an NFC link makes the previous link inactive.
XO GAME guest visitA random guest identity hash, game progress and a seven-day expiry
To resume your Harbor visit and shared tabletop game
Community tasksA hash of your site sign-in identifier, chosen public credit name, task claims, submissions, evidence links, review decisions and task history
To keep responsibility recoverable, review contributions and publish accepted results. Emails are not stored in task records. Unreviewed submissions are visible only to the current contributor and the XO reviewer; earlier task history remains with the reviewer.

Required before campaign activation
Trust needs
a named keeper.
Before XO actively drives public traffic, the final notice must name the responsible legal entity and contact, exact retention periods, service providers, data locations, request procedure and applicable rights. Until those decisions are canonical, XO should not pretend they are.
