WalletDNA Privacy Policy

Last Updated: May 10, 2026

Summary

WalletDNA is a blockchain analytics platform operated by WalletDNA, Inc., a California corporation. This policy explains what data we collect, what we do with it, who we share it with, and what rights you have.

In plain terms:

If you're in California or another jurisdiction with specific privacy rights, scroll to the section for your region.

1. Who We Are

WalletDNA, Inc. (“WalletDNA,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the WalletDNA platform at walletdna.com (the “Platform”). We are a California corporation.

For privacy questions, please use our Contact Us form.

2. Scope of This Policy

This policy describes our practices regarding personal data we collect when you visit walletdna.com, create an account, or use the Platform. It does not cover third-party websites or services linked from the Platform.

This policy applies to two distinct categories of data:

2.1 Geographic Availability

WalletDNA is currently available to users in the United States, Canada, and selected other jurisdictions. The Platform is not available to users located in, ordinarily resident in, or accessing from:

We use IP-based geolocation to enforce these restrictions at signup and on an ongoing basis. We may suspend or terminate accounts that we determine are accessing the Platform from a restricted region, including via VPN, proxy, or other circumvention technologies.

This policy does not apply to residents of restricted regions, because we do not offer the Platform to them. If you believe you have created an account in error from a restricted region, contact us via our Contact Us form so we can delete your data.

3. Information We Collect

3.1 Information you provide

We do not collect or store SMTP credentials, passwords for third-party email servers, or any data used to access systems we do not operate.

3.2 Information we generate as you use the Platform

CategoryExamplesPurpose

Usage logsFeatures used, pages viewed, timestamps, session durationOperate, secure, and improve the Platform
Technical dataIP address, browser type, operating system, device identifiers, language preference, time zoneOperate the Platform; detect fraud and abuse; enforce geographic and sanctions controls
Security logsLogin events, failed login attempts, IP geo-blocking events, SDN screening eventsDetect unauthorized access; demonstrate sanctions compliance
Email engagement dataDelivery status, open events, click events on alerts (via Resend)Confirm delivery; troubleshoot email issues

3.3 Information you submit for analysis

You may submit blockchain addresses to the Platform for analysis. The Platform restricts uploads to public blockchain addresses (and optional non-personal labels). You may not submit:

Where a wallet address can be linked to a natural person, it may constitute personal data of that wallet owner under applicable law. We process such data as a controller; see Section 11.

3.4 Analytics and cookies

We use Vercel Web Analytics to understand how the Platform is used. Vercel Analytics is privacy-preserving: it does not use cookies, does not store IP addresses (it hashes them in transit and discards the hash), and does not track users across sessions or websites. Because we use no advertising cookies, no cross-context behavioral tracking, and no analytics that require consent, we do not display a cookie consent banner.

We use strictly necessary cookies for session management, authentication, and security. These cannot be disabled if you wish to use the Platform.

We honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals from your browser. If your browser transmits a GPC signal, we treat it as a valid opt-out of any sale or sharing of your personal information — though we do not sell or share personal information in any case.

4. How We Use Your Information

We use personal data for the following purposes:

We do not use your personal data to train third-party AI models. Where we use AI to generate summaries, see Section 6.

We do not sell your personal information and do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not send marketing emails.

Anthropic's data handling. Wallet addresses and analytical data submitted to Anthropic's Claude API are not used to train Anthropic's models and are retained by Anthropic only as needed to provide the service and detect abuse (typically up to 30 days). We do not send user account information, names, email addresses, or payment data to Anthropic.

Where legally permitted, we will notify you of legal requests for your data before responding. For law enforcement requests, please use our Contact Us form.

5.3 Business transfers

If WalletDNA is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, personal data may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you of any such transfer and any choices you may have.

5.4 With your consent

We share personal data with third parties when you direct us to do so.

6. Artificial Intelligence and Automated Processing

The Platform uses artificial intelligence to generate analytical summaries, risk scores, and entity labels. Specifically:

We do not use AI to make decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects about you without human involvement. Our outputs about wallet owners are informational only.

7. Data Location

WalletDNA is based in California, United States. Our service providers are primarily located in the United States, and your personal data is stored and processed in the United States. By using the Platform, you understand that your data will be processed in the United States.

We do not currently accept users from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland. See Section 2.1 for details on geographic availability.

No system is perfectly secure. If we become aware of a personal data breach affecting your information, we will notify you and applicable regulators as required by law. To report a security concern, please use our Contact Us form.

10. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location, you have the following rights regarding personal data we hold about you:

To exercise these rights, please use our Contact Us form. We respond within 45 days, with one possible 45-day extension where permitted by law. We may need to verify your identity before responding. There is no fee for exercising these rights unless requests are manifestly unfounded or excessive.

11. Information for Wallet Owners and Data Subjects

This section is directed to individuals whose blockchain addresses are analyzed through the Platform but who are not themselves WalletDNA users.

11.1 What we do

WalletDNA analyzes publicly observable blockchain data — including wallet addresses, transactions, and on-chain activity — to produce analytical outputs such as entity labels, cluster assignments, and risk scores. Where this data can be linked, alone or in combination with other information, to an identifiable natural person, it may constitute personal data under applicable law, and you may be a data subject with rights.

11.2 Why we have not contacted you directly

Because blockchain addresses are pseudonymous and we typically have no means of contacting the wallet owner directly, we provide notice through this public policy rather than individually.

11.3 Your rights

If you believe we hold or process data about you, you may request:

To exercise these rights, please use our Contact Us form. Because we identify data subjects by wallet address, we will typically ask you to demonstrate control of the relevant address (for example, by signing a message with the corresponding private key) before responding. This is to protect you from impersonation by someone else claiming to act on your behalf.

11.4 What happens when you object

If you object to our processing of data about you, we will assess your request and cease processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds — such as fraud prevention, anti-money-laundering analysis, or the establishment or defense of legal claims — that override your interests. Where we continue processing after an objection, we will explain our reasoning in writing.

12. For California Residents

This section provides additional disclosures required by the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”).

To exercise these rights, please use our Contact Us form. We will respond within 45 days, with one possible 45-day extension.

We honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals as opt-out requests for sale and sharing.

12.5 Authorized agents

You may designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. We will require written proof of the agent's authority and may verify your identity directly.

12.6 “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information”

We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined under the CCPA. You may confirm this preference at any time via our Contact Us form.

You may complain to the California Privacy Protection Agency if you believe your rights have been violated.

13. For Residents of Other U.S. States

If you are a resident of Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas, Oregon, Montana, or another U.S. state with a comprehensive consumer privacy law, you have rights similar to those described in Section 12, including the rights to access, correct, delete, and opt out of the sale or targeted advertising use of your personal information. We do not sell personal information or use it for targeted advertising.

To exercise these rights, please use our Contact Us form.

14. Children

The Platform is not directed to children under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or under 16 in jurisdictions where a higher age applies). If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child without verifiable parental consent, we will delete it promptly. If you believe we may have collected such information, contact us via our Contact Us form.

15. Communications

We send transactional emails — including account confirmations, wallet alerts, security notifications, and billing communications — as part of providing the Platform. You cannot opt out of essential transactional emails while maintaining an account.

We do not currently send marketing emails. If we begin doing so in the future, we will obtain consent where required by law and provide an unsubscribe option in every marketing email.

16. Third-Party Links

The Platform may contain links to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties. Review their privacy policies before providing any personal information.
