LEGAL & TRANSPARENCY

Privacy policy

LAST UPDATED JUL 2026

THE SHORT VERSION

We collect as little as possible. No account is needed to read anything. If you subscribe to the newsletter, we keep your email and nothing else. We use privacy-respecting analytics, we don't sell data, and we never ask for wallet addresses or seed phrases.

What we collect

Newsletter email. If you subscribe to the daily digest, we store your email address with our email provider [Provider Name]. Every email has a one-click unsubscribe that deletes you from the list.

Contact messages. If you email us or use the contact form, we keep the message so we can reply. We delete resolved threads after [12] months.

Anonymous usage stats. We use [privacy-focused analytics provider — e.g. Plausible/Fathom] to count page views. It uses no cookies and stores no personal identifiers.

What we don't collect

−No accounts, passwords, or profiles — the whole site is readable without signing in.

−No wallet addresses, balances, or transaction data. We never ask for a seed phrase — anyone who does in our name is a scammer.

−No advertising trackers, no third-party ad cookies, no data brokers.

−We do not sell, rent, or share personal information with anyone, ever.

Affiliate links and third parties

Some links on this site are affiliate links (see our affiliate disclosure). When you click one, the destination site — an exchange, a wallet maker, a broker — has its own privacy policy that applies from that point on. The referral tells them you came from us; it does not tell us who you are.

Live market data

Prices, fees, and block data shown on the site are fetched from our own server, which pulls them from public sources ([mempool.space, CoinGecko]). Your browser talks only to us, not to those providers.

Cookies

We use [no cookies / only a single functional cookie for your display preferences]. No consent banner theatrics needed — there's nothing to consent to.

Your rights

Wherever you live (GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA, or elsewhere), the deal is the same: email us and we'll tell you what we hold about you (usually: one email address, or nothing), correct it, or delete it within 30 days. Contact: [email protected]

Children

This site is not directed at children under 16 and we do not knowingly collect their information.

Changes to this policy

If we change how we handle data, we'll update this page and the "last updated" date above. Material changes get a note in the daily digest.
