Privacy Policy
Information We Do Not Collect
The Sahyadri website does not require users to create accounts or submit personal identity information. The project does not collect personal financial data, private keys, wallet credentials, or transaction signing information.
Users retain full control of their wallets and cryptographic keys. Private keys are never transmitted to or stored by the Sahyadri website or its contributors. The network operates through open-source software running on user devices, meaning all sensitive data remains under the control of the user.
Log Data
Like most websites on the internet, the Sahyadri website may automatically receive and record certain technical information when users visit the site. This information may include:
- Internet Protocol (IP) address
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages visited on the website
- Date and time of access
- Referring website addresses
This information is used only for maintaining website stability, improving performance, monitoring security, and understanding general usage patterns. Log data is not used to personally identify visitors.
Open Source Software
Sahyadri node software, wallets, and related tools operate independently on user devices. These applications do not transmit personal information, private keys, or wallet credentials to the Sahyadri project.
All blockchain transactions are generated and signed locally by the user before being broadcast to the decentralized network.
Google Analytics
The Sahyadri website may use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, to help understand how visitors interact with the website. Google Analytics collects anonymous information such as page visits, traffic sources, device types, and general geographic regions.
This information helps maintainers understand how documentation and resources are used so the website can be improved over time.
Google Analytics may use cookies to collect usage data. The collected information is processed in accordance with Google's own privacy policies. Sahyadri does not use analytics data to identify individual visitors.
Users may disable Google Analytics tracking through browser settings or privacy tools if they wish.
Blockchain Data
Transactions broadcast to the Sahyadri network become part of a public blockchain ledger. Blockchain data is transparent and permanently recorded across the network.
Although blockchain addresses are pseudonymous, external analysis may sometimes associate addresses with individuals. Users should be aware that blockchain activity may be publicly visible and take appropriate precautions when interacting with digital assets.
Cookies
The Sahyadri website may use cookies or similar technologies to ensure proper website functionality and improve user experience. Cookies are small data files stored by a user's browser that help websites remember preferences and basic usage settings.
Cookies used on this website may support:
- Website performance optimization
- Basic user interface preferences
- Anonymous usage statistics
Users can disable cookies through their browser settings at any time if they prefer not to store them.
Third-Party Services
The Sahyadri website may reference third-party services such as exchanges, mining pools, wallets, block explorers, or infrastructure providers.
These services operate independently and may have their own privacy policies and data practices. Users should review the privacy policies of any third-party services before interacting with them.
Data Security
Reasonable technical measures are taken to maintain the security and reliability of the Sahyadri website infrastructure. However, no internet-based system can guarantee absolute security.
Users are responsible for protecting their devices, securing their wallets, and safeguarding private keys when interacting with digital assets.
Children's Privacy
The Sahyadri website and related resources are not directed toward individuals under the age of 18. The project does not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to This Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or website operations. Updated versions will be published on this page.
