# Privacy Policy

> Privacy Policy for hoodstar.fun.

**Last updated: July 14, 2026**

hoodstar.fun is a non-custodial platform. This policy explains what limited data we handle and how.

## What we collect

| Category         | Details                                                                                                                |
| ---------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Profile data     | Optional username, display name, avatar, and bio you choose to set                                                     |
| Wallet address   | Your **public** wallet address, used for sign-in (signature verification), favorites, comments, and creator dashboards |
| Usage & log data | Standard technical logs: IP address, browser type, pages visited, timestamps                                           |
| Cookies          | Session cookies for authentication; analytics cookies (see below)                                                      |

We **never** collect or store private keys, seed phrases, or custody of funds. We do not require an email address to use the platform (email/social login via Privy is optional and handled by Privy under their privacy policy).

## What's on the blockchain

Your wallet address, trades, token launches, and fee claims are recorded on Robinhood Chain — a public blockchain we do not control. On-chain data is public, permanent, and outside the scope of this policy. Content you attach to a token launch (images, descriptions) is pinned to IPFS and likewise public and effectively permanent.

## How we use data

* Operate the platform: authentication, profiles, favorites, comments
* Secure the service: abuse and fraud prevention, rate limiting
* Improve the product: aggregate analytics
* Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell your personal data.

## Third parties

We use service providers for hosting, analytics (e.g. Google Analytics), bot protection (e.g. reCAPTCHA), media pinning (IPFS/Pinata), and optional login (Privy). Each processes data only as needed to provide its service.

## Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction (GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA), you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or export your data, and to object to certain processing. Contact us to exercise them. Note we cannot delete data recorded on a public blockchain or content pinned to IPFS by third parties.

## Retention & security

Profile data is retained while your account is active; logs are retained for a limited period for security. We apply industry-standard safeguards, but no system is perfectly secure — protect your wallet and devices.

## Children

The platform is not intended for anyone under 18.
