Privacy Policy

Account data — your username, email, and anything you add to your profile (name, bio, avatar, links). If you sign in with Google, GitHub, or X, we receive your basic profile and email from them.

Content — the threads, replies, messages, and reactions you create.

Technical data — IP address, browser/user-agent, and login timestamps, kept for security and abuse prevention.

To run the forum: authenticate you, show your content, deliver notifications and emails (verification, password resets), keep the community safe, and prevent spam and abuse. We do not sell your personal data.

We use cookies to keep you logged in and to secure requests (CSRF). If we add analytics, we'll use them only to understand aggregate usage and improve the product.

Only the service providers we need to operate: our hosting, database, email delivery, and (where applicable) analytics and error-monitoring providers. They process data on our behalf under their own terms. We also share information if required by law.

We keep your account data while your account is active. Security logs (IPs, login history) are kept for a limited period. When you delete your account, we remove your personal data, though some content may remain in an anonymized form.

You can view and edit your data in Settings, control who sees your activity in Privacy settings, and delete your account at any time. To request a copy of your data, contact us.

Passwords are hashed, traffic is encrypted, and access is limited. No system is perfectly secure, so please use a strong, unique password and never share your seed phrase or private keys with anyone — including people claiming to be staff.

CryptoTalk is not intended for anyone under 18, and we don't knowingly collect their data.

We'll post any updates to this policy here with a new date. Questions? Reach us via the Contact page.
