Privacy
A plain description of what's logged when you use PoolInfo 2.0, kept up to date with what the code actually does.
What we log
When you load the homepage, a pool details page, or the admin page, the server records:
- The page URL you visited
- Your IP address
- Your browser's user agent string
- The referring page, if any
- A timestamp
This is used only for internal traffic statistics (visit counts, top pages, unique visitor counts by IP) shown on an admin dashboard. There is currently no automatic deletion schedule for this data.
What we don't do
- No cookies for tracking or advertising.
- No third-party analytics or ad trackers - there's no Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or similar embedded on the site.
- No selling or sharing of visit logs with third parties.
- No account required, so there's no profile, email, or password to store for using the pool-research features.
Requesting a pool's data
When you look up a pool or run a relay/metadata check, PoolInfo 2.0 makes a live request to the Koios API (for pool data) and, for metadata verification, to the pool operator's own metadata URL. Those requests happen server-side - your IP is not exposed to Koios or to the pool operator's metadata host as part of that lookup.
The promotion request form
If you submit a request on the promotion page, the pool ID, requested dates, and whatever contact details you provide (Discord handle and/or email) are stored so we can follow up about pricing. That information is only used to respond to your request.
