Interlink Labs operates with a foundational principle of privacy at its core, emphasizing that our services are intentionally designed to respect user anonymity. With our InterLink AI, we do not seek to identify individual users; instead, our focus remains solely on ensuring that they engage with our platform as humans, free from the complexities of personal identification.
We are not interested in your identity, just that you are human.
In an increasingly digitized world, the essence of our humanity often gets overshadowed by labels, identities, and classifications. Our declaration " We are not interested in your identity, just that you are human” serves as a poignant reminder of the core values we should prioritize in our interactions with others. It emphasizes fostering a sense of belonging that transcends demographics and categories, urging us to connect on a fundamental level devoid of preconceived notions. This approach invites individuals to share their experiences, emotions, and thoughts without the weight of societal expectations or judgments. By focusing on our shared humanity rather than personal identifiers—such as race, gender, or profession—we can cultivate deeper empathy and understanding in an age where division often takes precedence over connection. Ultimately, this perspective champions the idea that every individual deserves recognition for their intrinsic worth simply by virtue of being human.
By empowering users with complete control over their data, we reinforce the idea that it belongs to them alone. All user-generated information is securely encrypted and stored directly on their devices, safeguarding it from external access and providing peace of mind regarding confidentiality and security. This approach not only nurtures trust but also aligns with contemporary concerns about data privacy in a digital world.
Your facial image will be transmitted to your phone as an end-to-end encrypted data bundle and will be promptly erased from our system. You will gain access to your fully verified InterLink ID, allowing you to utilize the complete InterLink Network platform.
Along with your image data being securely stored as an encrypted bundle on your device, this indicates that you are allowing us to receive your image data to enhance our system. You retain the option to delete your image data at any time. Your fully verified InterLink ID will remain active, granting you continued access to the full range of InterLink Network's platform.
Interlink AI does not collect any data in this case. As a result, you will not be able to obtain a fully verified InterLink ID. However, you can download the InterLink App, create a wallet, and send or receive crypto assets using your device verified InterLink ID.
InterLink AI ensures that you are a distinct individual and verifies that you have not previously registered. This is achieved by capturing and analyzing images of your unique iris pattern, which serves as the basis for generating a set of encrypted identifiers known as an facial recognition code.
Once created, this protocol can confirm that no other facial patterns align with yours, allowing for the issuance of a verified InterLink ID. Importantly, this ID consists solely of a long numeric string that conveys no personal information about you—only your uniqueness as an individual.
Furthermore, the records associated with your facial pattern are held in strict encryption to safeguard your privacy. The codes are divided into multiple secret shares stored across secure, encrypted databases (learn more about Anonymized Multi-Party Computation).
Since InterLink AI's codes are programmatically distributed among various independent entities apart from InterLink Labs Foundation and Tools, they cannot be linked back to you in any way.
The InterLink App offers a self-custodial wallet, designed to empower users with complete control over their digital assets, akin to managing a physical wallet. This type of wallet ensures that users maintain sole ownership and authority over their funds; no third-party entity can access or manipulate the money without explicit permission from the user. As such, transactions can only be executed by the wallet’s owner, significantly enhancing security and eliminating risks associated with shared control or reliance on external services. Users can confidently manage their cryptocurrency holdings, knowing that they alone bear responsibility for their assets while enjoying the convenience of a streamlined digital platform. The self-custodial nature of this wallet fosters a sense of financial independence and security, making it an essential tool for those navigating the evolving landscape of digital finance.
InterLink ID is inherently private, granting you unparalleled control over your personal information. With your InterLink ID, you can demonstrate that you are a genuine and distinct individual without disclosing your identity.
This capability is enabled by a cryptographic technology known as Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs), which validates both the authenticity of your InterLink ID and ensures that you haven't previously performed the action in question—without ever revealing who you are.
Through InterLink ID, we reimagine the concept of internet identity. It emphasizes not who you are but rather that you are a unique human (proof of humanity). This distinction will become increasingly important as artificial intelligence and more advanced bots emulate human behavior.
