Arcdesk

Privacy

We collect as little as the product can function on, and we say exactly what that is.

Last updated 1 September 2026

No accounts

There is no sign-up, no password, no email, and no KYC. You connect a wallet; that is the whole identity model.

What the desk stores

DataWhy
Your wallet addresses (paying and receiving)To build the order and show you its status. Both are already public on-chain.
Order amounts, prices, timestamps, transaction hashesTo settle the trade and show your history. All of it is on-chain anyway.
The settlement preimage for orders the desk makesRequired to settle. Never leaves the server; only its hash goes on-chain.
Request IP, briefly, in memoryRate limiting only, to stop order spam. Not written to the database and not retained.

What we do not do

What is inherently public

Blockchains are public. Every order, price, amount, address, and settlement is visible to anyone inspecting Base or Arc, permanently, whether or not this site exists. Nothing we do can make an on-chain transaction private.

Third parties you touch

Your browser talks directly to public RPC endpoints and to your wallet extension. Those parties see your IP and the requests you make, under their own policies, not ours.

Deletion

You can ask us to delete the off-chain order records associated with an address, and we will. We cannot delete anything from the blockchains, because nobody can.
