Privacy Policy
HOP is a personal, experimental project run by one person. This page describes what the software actually does today, not what a bigger product might do later. If the software changes, this page changes with it.
What is collected
- Your wallet address. It is your account. Everything you do here — your forecasts, your stakes, your balance, your deposits and withdrawals — is stored against it.
- The country your request came from. The hosting edge reads it from your IP and passes a two-letter country code to the server, which uses it for one thing: the jurisdiction check in the terms. The IP address itself is not stored in the database.
- Ordinary server logs. The host records requests, which includes IP addresses, the way every web server does. Those logs are kept by the hosting provider on its own schedule and are used for debugging and abuse, nothing else.
What is not collected
- No email address, name or phone number. You are never asked for one, and there is no mailing list.
- No identity documents. There is no KYC step. If one ever became necessary, it would be described here before it was switched on.
- No private keys or seed phrase. Signing happens inside your wallet. Signing in is an EIP-4361 message that moves no funds, and HOP cannot move anything out of your personal wallet.
- No analytics, no advertising, no third-party trackers. Nothing on these pages reports your behaviour to anyone.
Cookies
One cookie, and it is the session. After you sign a login message the server sets an HttpOnly, SameSite cookie holding a session identifier, so you stay signed in between page loads. It is not shared, not read by any script, and not used to follow you anywhere. Deleting it signs you out. There are no other cookies, and therefore no cookie banner to click through.
What the operator can see
Everything in the database, including forecasts that are hidden from other participants until a pool settles. Privacy on HOP means privacy from other users, not from the person running it. Your balance sits in a treasury wallet the operator controls — read section 3 of the terms, because it is the part that matters most.
What is public forever
Your deposits and withdrawals are Robinhood Chain transactions. They are permanently public, permanently linked to your wallet address, and nobody — including the operator — can delete them. Your forecasts, stakes and balance live in the database, not on chain.
Who else sees anything
- The hosting provider — sees your IP address and your requests, as any host does.
- The database provider — stores the data described above on the operator's behalf.
- The RPC provider — sees the chain queries the server makes about deposits and withdrawals. It does not see who is browsing.
- DexScreener — sees the server's price requests. Those are the same for every visitor and contain nothing about you.
Your data is not sold, rented or shared with anyone else. There is nobody to share it with.
How long it is kept
Balances, pool entries and the ledger are kept for as long as the project runs: they are the record of what is owed to whom, and deleting them would break the accounting. If the project shuts down, the intent is to pay out balances and then delete the database.
Your rights
Depending on where you live you may have the right to see the data held about you, to correct it, or to have it deleted. Ask through the contact route in the terms and the operator will do it by hand — it is one database and one person. Two limits are worth stating plainly: on-chain transactions cannot be deleted by anyone, and a balance or an unsettled stake cannot be erased while it still represents money owed to you.
