G-SSO Authentication API
Service Provider: G-SSO Authentication Service
Service URL: https://g-sso.com
Purpose: Verifies cryptographic signatures from cryptocurrency wallets to authenticate users
Data Sent:
* Wallet address (public blockchain information)
* Cryptographic signature (for verification only)
* Timestamp (to prevent replay attacks)
* Chain ID (blockchain network identifier)
When Data is Sent:
Only when a user clicks “Connect Wallet” and signs the authentication message in their wallet.
Privacy Policy: https://g-sso.com/privacy
Terms of Service: https://g-sso.com/terms
Legal Basis:
G-SSO is operated by Go2Glory Ltd. Wallet addresses are public blockchain data and do not constitute personal information under GDPR. No personally identifiable information (PII) is collected without explicit user consent.
QR Code Generation Service
Service Provider: goQR.me / QRServer.com
Service URL: https://api.qrserver.com
Documentation: https://goqr.me/api/
Purpose: Generates QR codes for mobile wallet authentication
Data Sent:
* Temporary authentication URL (session link with no personal data)
* QR code styling parameters (size: 160×160 pixels, color: #667eea)
When Data is Sent:
Only when the wallet connection modal is displayed and user is on a mobile device. QR codes are generated on-demand for that session only.
Privacy Policy: https://goqr.me/privacy-safety-security
Terms of Service: https://goqr.me/legal/tos-api.html
Data Protection:
QR codes contain only temporary session URLs that expire after use. No personal or sensitive information is transmitted. The session URL is a one-time-use token that becomes invalid after authentication completes.
