Last updated: May 30, 2025

DeFiBase ("we," "our," "us") values your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your personal information when you use our platform, websites, applications, APIs, and related services (collectively, the "Service"). By accessing or using the Service, you consent to the practices described in this policy.

1.3. Information from Third Parties

2. How We Use Your Information

We use information to:

  • Provide & Improve Services: Enable wallet creation, transaction facilitation, portfolio aggregation, and yield optimization.

3. Information Sharing & Disclosure

3.1. Service Providers & Integrations

  • We share data with third-party service providers who help operate, maintain, and secure the Service (e.g., analytics providers, cloud hosts).
  • We facilitate on-chain interactions with protocols (e.g., Stargate, Morpho) by sharing your wallet address and transaction metadata required for those protocols to function.

3.2. Legal Requirements

We may disclose information to comply with legal processes, enforce our Terms of Service, or investigate security incidents or fraud.

3.3. Business Transfers

If DeFiBase undergoes a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, user data may be transferred to the acquiring entity under the same privacy terms.

4. Data Security

We implement administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information. Our platform uses encryption in transit (TLS) and encryption at rest for sensitive data. However, no system is completely secure, and you transmit data at your own risk.

5. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to provide the Service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Usage data and analytics may be stored in aggregated, anonymized form indefinitely.

  • Cookies: You may disable or delete cookies via browser settings, though some features may not function properly.

7. International Transfers

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your residence, including the European Economic Area and the United States. We ensure appropriate safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses, are in place where required.

8. Children's Privacy

The Service is not directed to individuals under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we learn we have collected data from a child, we will take steps to delete it.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. We will post the updated policy with a new "Last updated" date. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
