Selective Transparency

While Papillae prioritizes privacy, it recognizes legitimate needs for selective disclosure:

View Key Sharing: Users can share their viewing key to grant read-only access:

• Personal Use: Sync balances across multiple devices

• Accounting: Share with bookkeepers/accountants for record-keeping

• Auditing: Prove transaction history to auditors without giving spending access

• Compliance: Demonstrate regulatory compliance when required

Transaction Proofs: Users can generate cryptographic proofs about specific transactions:

• Proof of payment to a specific recipient

• Proof that a payment was above/below a certain amount

• Proof of transaction timing

• All without revealing full transaction details

Selective Revelation: For regulatory or legal purposes, users can decrypt specific transactions:

• Choose exactly which transactions to reveal

• Generate verifiable decryption of transaction details

• Maintain privacy for all other transactions

• Provide cryptographic proof that revelation is authentic

Compliance Mode (Optional): Businesses can enable additional features:

• Automatic transaction logging for internal compliance

• Role-based access control for viewing keys

• Time-locked disclosure (reveal transactions after X days)

• Integration with compliance software and reporting tools

Privacy Controls: Users maintain granular control:

• Choose which transactions to shield vs. leave public

• Set default privacy levels per token

• Create separate stealth addresses for different purposes

• Mix private and public transactions as needed

This selective transparency model provides:

• Default privacy for all users

• Flexibility for legitimate disclosure needs

• Compliance options without sacrificing privacy

• User sovereignty over their financial data
