Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2026

Overview

Stonkistan is committed to protecting your privacy. We operate on a minimal data collection principle. We do not require account creation, do not store passwords, and do not sell personal information to third parties.

Data We Collect

  • Anonymous session keys: A hashed version of your IP address (one-way hash, not reversible) used to enable features like watchlists and article comments.
  • Wallet addresses (optional): If you connect a wallet, the public address is used as your session key. We never have access to your private keys.
  • Comments: Text content you submit in article comments. Comments are automatically deleted after 7 days.
  • Watchlist data: Asset symbols you choose to watch, stored server-side with your session key.
  • Usage analytics: Standard web analytics (page views, referrers) via privacy-respecting analytics tools.

Data We Do NOT Collect

  • Names, email addresses, or personal identification (unless you sign up for Pro Citizenship)
  • Payment information (handled entirely by Stripe)
  • Private keys or wallet signing permissions
  • Location data beyond country-level (for rate limiting only)

Data Retention

Most data on Stonkistan operates on a 7-day rolling window. Comments, watchlist entries, and article interactions are automatically deleted after 7 days. Market data (prices, news) is also pruned to maintain a 7-day window.

Cookies & Local Storage

Stonkistan uses browser local storage to remember your watchlist preferences and UI settings. We do not use tracking cookies. Third-party ad networks (Google AdSense) may place cookies for ad personalization subject to their own privacy policies.

Third-Party Services

  • Google AdSense: Displays advertisements. Subject to Google's privacy policy.
  • Stripe: Payment processing for Pro Citizenship. We never see your full card number.
  • Vercel: Hosting provider. May log standard server access logs.

Your Rights

Since we collect minimal personal data, there is little to delete. If you wish to have your session data removed, contact us with your session key or IP address. We will delete associated records within 30 days.
