Protecting Your Privacy

Privacy Policy & Philosophy

Pirate Chain Wallet team is committed to user privacy and we view privacy as a human right. We are supporters of the Tor Project, Electronics Frontier Foundation, and European Center for Digital Rights. Pirate Chain Wallet never collections, distributes, or sells private information. The best way we can ensure your privacy is to never ask private information.

Protecting your privacy is not just an afterthought, but something we have focused on from the beginning. We are so committed to privacy that Pirate Chain Wallet operates over the Tor Network to further ensure your privacy. Tor Network is an anti-censorship / anonymizing privacy network from the Tor Project. Every wallet function is executed over the Tor Network which prevents privacy leaks to your ISP or node operators. Pirate Chain Wallet also support the top privacy coins so that using privacy focused coins is more accessible to you.

Pirate Chain Wallet is built to be decentralized. That means that the wallet functions such as getting transactions, header blocks, etc, does not depend on infrastructure provided by Pirate Chain Wallet. Instead the wallet uses community powered, decentralized infrastructure. For example, the Monero wallet chooses a random Monero node from the Monero network. It connects to this node over the Tor Network, so the node does not even know the IP address of the connecting client.

The services that Pirate Chain Wallet provides, such as this Web site you currently are reading, are accessible over the Tor Network for maximum privacy. In addition, service components such as the Web server are configured to either not log or to frequently delete any logs that are generated in their normal course of operation . Any e-mails sent to our help desk are also deleted once the support issue has been resolved.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have a question not on the list? Feel free to contact us with any questions / suggestions

Pirate Chain utilizes zkSNARKs technology which means every transaction has an anonymity set guarantee that equals the total size of the network and grows over time. This contrasts with other privacy technology like Monero which has an anonymity set of 16, which declines over time. In addition, the wallet connection utilizes the Tor network. This combination ensures the greatest privacy.

Yes. Fast and reliable syncing is performed which ensures the best user experience.

Metadata analysis can reduce privacy even when utilizing shielded trasnactions. For example, at a minimum, it is possible for a node to know at what time and block a particular IP address transacted. The Tor network will hide your real IP address, so this cannot be traced back to your identity.

No because the Pirate Chain network does not support non-shielded transactions. Making privacy mandatory is why privacy is guaranteed.

Yes, only you have access to the privacy keys. No third-party has access and you are free to import or export to and from another wallet.
