Privacy Policy

Who we are

Lantern Protocol is a product and research initiative of EchoMedia.ai LLC, a North Carolina company. This policy applies to information collected through this website.

Information we collect

When you submit an inquiry, we collect the information you provide, which may include your name, work email, organization, role, area of interest, environment, timeline, and message. Our hosting and security providers may also process ordinary technical information needed to deliver and protect the site.

How we use information

• Respond to partner, pilot, research, government, hardware, and funding inquiries.
• Evaluate potential product and research relationships.
• Protect the site, prevent abuse, and maintain reliable operations.
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our rights.

We do not sell inquiry information or use it for unrelated marketing.

How information is shared

Information may be processed by service providers that host, secure, or operate the site, and by professional advisers when necessary. We may disclose information when required by law, to protect rights or safety, or in connection with a lawful business transaction.

Retention and security

We retain inquiry information only as long as reasonably necessary for the relationship, operational needs, dispute resolution, and legal obligations. We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards, but no internet service can guarantee absolute security.

Your choices

You may ask to access, correct, or delete inquiry information, subject to applicable law and legitimate retention needs. Use the partner inquiry form, select “Other,” and describe your privacy request.

Changes

We may update this policy as the website and ETS program evolve. The effective date above identifies the current version.
