Privacy Policy
At ChainTx.Tools, we prioritize the privacy and security of our users. This Privacy Policy outlines how we handle your data, focusing on our commitment to a non-custodial, client-side architecture.
1. Non-Custodial Service
ChainTx.Tools is a client-side interface. This means that we do not have access to your private keys, seed phrases, or funds. All cryptographic operations (signing transactions, generating keys) occur locally within your browser using JavaScript.
2. Data Collection
We believe in data minimization. As such:
- No Personal Information: We do not collect names, email addresses, or phone numbers.
- No Server-Side Key Storage: Your private keys are never transmitted to our servers. They remain strictly on your device.
- Server Logs: Like most websites, our hosting provider may collect standard server logs (such as IP addresses and request times) for security and diagnostic purposes. This data is not linked to your blockchain activity within the tool interface.
3. Local Data Storage (localStorage & IndexedDB)
To provide a seamless user experience and persist your data between sessions, we utilize your browser's local storage capabilities: localStorage and IndexedDB.
What we store locally on your device:
- Application Settings: Interface preferences, themes, and network configurations.
- Wallet Data: Encrypted private keys or addresses that you explicitly choose to save.
4. Blockchain Interaction
When you broadcast a transaction using ChainTx.Tools:
- The signed transaction data is sent to a public blockchain node (RPC) to be included in the ledger.
- Once broadcasted, transaction details (amount, sender address, receiver address) become publicly available on the blockchain. This is inherent to how blockchains function and is outside our control.
5. Third-Party Services
Our tools may connect to public RPC nodes or third-party APIs (e.g., to fetch current gas prices or nonce). These third-party services may see your IP address when your browser makes a request to them.
6. User Control and Data Deletion
You have full control over your data. Since we do not store your personal data on our servers, we cannot "delete" your account for you—there is no account to delete.
To remove all data associated with ChainTx.Tools, simply clear your browser's cache, localStorage, and cookies.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our technology or legal requirements. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
