Cryptographic Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 2026
1. Fundamental Secrecy Guarantee
Honouree Elections, a product of Kode Mapa, guarantees that ballot choices are mathematically unlinkable to individual voter identities. Client-side Zero-Knowledge proofs and Paillier homomorphic ciphertexts ensure that plaintext votes are never transmitted across the network.
2. Institutional Identity Federation Data
Authentication data (SAML 2.0 assertions, email addresses, and student IDs) are utilized solely for verifying voter accreditation and cohort eligibility. Upon authorization, a deterministic pseudo-random token is generated, and personal identifiers are immediately decoupled from the ballot generation pipeline.
3. Public Ledger Audit Evidence
The consensus block stream records only: (1) Anonymized Zero-Knowledge validity proofs; (2) Homomorphic ciphertexts; and (3) Merkle tree hash roots. No personally identifiable information (PII) is ever written to the public ledger.
4. Zero-Tracking Analytics
Platform performance metrics track anonymous aggregate statistics (velocity per hour, node sync latency) and do not log voter IP addresses, browser canvas fingerprints, or geolocation data.
