Privacy Policy

Effective Date: April 4, 2025

Scrypt Wallet, a product of Hope Street Strategies, LLC (“we”, “us”, or “our”), is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) outlines how we collect, use, and protect the limited information that may be associated with your use of Scrypt Wallet, including our mobile application and any browser-based extensions (collectively, the “Services”).

Your use of the Services constitutes your acceptance of this Policy. Any disputes over privacy will be handled in accordance with this Policy and our Terms of Service, including any applicable limitations on liability and dispute resolution provisions.

1. Overview

Privacy is central to Scrypt Wallet’s mission to create a secure, user-first gateway to digital assets, including tokenized real-world assets and GameFi utilities. We believe in building trust through transparency and minimal data collection.

  • Non-Custodial, Interface-Only: Scrypt Wallet is a non-custodial interface. We do not take possession of your fiat or digital assets. All transactions are initiated and managed by you via integrated third-party platforms.

  • No Personal Information Required: We do not require your name, email address, tax ID, or phone number to use Scrypt Wallet.

  • IP Addresses: We do not use your IP address for marketing or advertising purposes.

  • Transparency & Updates: This Policy will be updated to reflect any changes in our privacy practices or applicable laws.

2. The Information We Collect

We are committed to collecting the minimum amount of information necessary to operate and improve Scrypt Wallet. We do not collect personal information unless explicitly provided by you, and we never use your data for advertising purposes.

Information We Collect

You may use Scrypt Wallet without providing any personal details. However, for the purposes of improving app performance and stability, we collect the following anonymized information:

  • Usage Data – Browser type, operating system, access times, page viewed, links clicked, the third party services you connected too your wallet. Basic information such as which screens or features you interact with (e.g., Dashboard, Easy Invest, Arcade).

  • Diagnostic & Crash Logs – Technical error and crash reports that help us maintain and improve the performance of the app.

  • Device Data – General information such as device type, operating system, and app version, used for debugging and compatibility purposes.

This data is anonymized, not linked to any wallet address or personal identifier, and is only used internally to optimize our services.

Publicly Available Information

To enable wallet functionality, we may interact with publicly available blockchain data:

  • Wallet Address & Public On-Chain Activity – Your wallet address and transaction history are public on the blockchain. We do not link this information to any identity, nor do we store it in a personally identifiable way.

  • Token Holdings – In features such as Easy Invest and the Arcade, the app may read token balances associated with your connected wallet solely to provide relevant functionality (e.g., eligibility in iSpySol games or tokenized real estate investment tracking).

Information You Choose to Provide

If you contact us for support, sign up for our newsletter, or engage in a survey or promotion, we may collect:

  • Contact Information – Such as your email address, if you provide it voluntarily.

  • User Feedback or Survey Responses – If you choose to respond to optional feedback forms to help us improve.

3. How We Use and Share Information

How We Use the Information We Collect

We collect and use only the minimum data necessary to provide, improve, and protect Scrypt Wallet. We do not sell your data, and we do not use it for third-party advertising.

Here’s how we may use the data we collect:

  • To Provide Our Services
    We use anonymized usage and diagnostic data to ensure the app performs as expected, support wallet interactions, power in-app features like the Arcade and Easy Invest, and facilitate secure integrations with third-party services (e.g., swap providers or tokenization platforms).

  • To Improve and Develop Scrypt Wallet
    We use crash logs and aggregate usage data to identify bugs, improve user experience, and develop new functionality that aligns with our mission (e.g., supporting new digital asset classes or GameFi mechanics).

  • To Provide Support or Respond to Inquiries
    If you contact us via support, surveys, or optional signups (e.g., email newsletter), we may use the information you provide solely to respond to your request or manage communications.

  • To Protect Security and Fulfill Legal Obligations
    We may temporarily process limited technical data (e.g., IP address) to defend against abuse, protect the integrity of the Services, and comply with legal obligations such as sanctions compliance or law enforcement requests.

We do not use IP addresses or blockchain activity for profiling, tracking, or marketing.

When you access Scrypt Wallet you are accessing multiple third-parties and are providing consent to those applications as you utilize them. We hold no liability for the information you provide to third-party applicaitons.

We may share non-personal or anonymized information under the following conditions:

  • At Your Direction
    If you initiate a transaction or connect to a third-party service (e.g., Coinbase, Jupiter, PayPal, MoonPay), you are consenting to share your wallet address or other relevant information required for that action.

  • Vendors & Service Providers
    We may share anonymized, non-identifiable diagnostic or usage data with third-party vendors who help maintain app performance or analytics, solely for internal operational purposes.

  • Legal Compliance
    We may share limited technical or usage data if required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other legal process.

  • Security and Enforcement
    If necessary to protect the rights, safety, or property of Scrypt Wallet, its users, or others, we may share data with relevant authorities.

  • Business Transitions
    In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets involving Scrypt Wallet or Hope Street Strategies, anonymized or aggregate data may be transferred as part of the transaction, in accordance with applicable laws.

  • Aggregate and De-Identified Data
    We may share aggregate, non-personal data with partners, researchers, or the public (e.g., usage trends, token holdings across the platform), but we do not re-identify or link this data back to individuals.

4. Our User of Cookies and Other Tracking Mechanisms

At Scrypt Wallet, we strive to minimize data collection and respect your privacy. However, like most apps and web-based platforms, we may use limited cookies and similar tracking technologies to help us improve performance, troubleshoot issues, and enhance your user experience.

Cookies

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your device or browser. We use them to:

  • Help you navigate the app or website more efficiently

  • Remember preferences for improved usability

  • Analyze general traffic patterns (e.g., which screens are most visited)

We may use two types of cookies:

  • Session Cookies: These are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser or end a session. They help us understand short-term usage trends.

  • Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device for a set period of time and help us analyze longer-term usage data in an aggregated and anonymous way.

Cookies used by Scrypt Wallet do not collect personally identifiable information and are never used for advertising, profiling, or tracking you across different websites.

Disabling Cookies

Most web browsers accept cookies by default. If you prefer not to allow cookies, you can modify your browser settings to block them or notify you when cookies are being used. Please note that disabling cookies may limit some functionality or features of the Services.

Third-Party Analytics

We may use third-party analytics tools (such as Firebase or similar privacy-conscious services) to evaluate how users interact with Scrypt Wallet. These tools help us understand app performance, identify crashes, and prioritize new features using only anonymized and aggregated data.

5. Third-Party Links and Services

Scrypt Wallet may include links or provide access to third-party websites, decentralized applications (dApps), exchanges, tokenization platforms, analytics providers, payment processors (e.g., MoonPay, PayPal), and community platforms (e.g., Telegram, X/Twitter). These third-party services are not operated or controlled by Scrypt Wallet and are provided for your convenience or functionality.

When you engage with these third-party services—whether by clicking a link, connecting your wallet, or initiating a transaction—you are interacting directly with that third party. Your use of such services is governed solely by their respective privacy policies and terms of service, not this Privacy Policy.

Please be aware of the following important notes for compliance with Apple’s App Store policies:

  • Data Collection by Third Parties: Some third-party services or SDKs integrated with Scrypt Wallet may collect usage or diagnostic data independently. This can include device information, IP address, or product interaction data (e.g., Firebase, MoonPay, or other integrated services). These services may use cookies or similar technologies to support their operations.

  • User Consent: By choosing to access or authorize any third-party service through Scrypt Wallet, you provide your consent to their data collection practices. Scrypt Wallet does not control what data they collect or how it is used.

  • No Tracking or Profiling: Scrypt Wallet does not share personal information with third parties for advertising or marketing purposes. We do not participate in or facilitate cross-site tracking, ad targeting, or user profiling.

  • No Responsibility for External Policies: We are not responsible for the content, security, or privacy practices of third-party services. We encourage users to review the privacy policies of any third-party applications or websites they access through Scrypt Wallet before engaging with them.

If you wish to learn more about your data rights or control your privacy settings within these third-party services, please refer to their official documentation or contact them directly.

6. Your Privacy Rights and Choices

Access, Modify, or Delete Your Information

Because Scrypt Wallet is a non-custodial interface and does not collect personal data by default, we typically do not retain any identifiable information about you.

To submit a request, please contact us at privacy@scryptwallet.io. We will use reasonable efforts to fulfill your request, consistent with applicable laws. For security reasons, we may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests.

In some cases, we may need to retain limited information to comply with legal or regulatory requirements.

Scrypt Wallet may temporarily process your device’s IP address as part of routine technical operations. IP addresses are considered standard network data and are used for essential purposes only, including:

  • Detecting and mitigating security threats (e.g., denial-of-service attacks, bot activity)

  • Ensuring service availability and load balancing

  • Complying with applicable legal and regulatory requirements (e.g., sanctions compliance)

  • Facilitating secure third-party service connections where required (e.g., swap providers, payment processors)

We do not use your IP address for advertising, tracking, profiling, or analytics purposes, and we do not link your IP address to your wallet address or identity.

In most cases, IP addresses are:

  • Processed only temporarily and not retained beyond what is necessary to fulfill the technical or legal purpose

  • Anonymized or logged in aggregate form, where possible, to improve security and platform reliability

We may share IP-related technical data with infrastructure providers or security vendors solely for operational and safety purposes. These vendors are contractually bound to process data only on our behalf and not for their own use.

Consistent with Apple’s App Store guidelines, IP addresses may fall under data types such as Coarse Location, Device ID, or Diagnostics, depending on how they are processed. We review our practices regularly to ensure data minimization and transparency.

Marketing and Communication Preferences

If you've opted into receiving communications from us (such as newsletters or updates about tokenized assets or new features), you can unsubscribe at any time by following the opt-out link in the email.

  • Opt-out requests typically take up to 10 business days to process.

  • Even if you opt out of marketing messages, we may still send essential service-related messages, such as security updates or support replies.

7. Security Is Our First Priority

At Scrypt Wallet, security is not an afterthought — it's the foundation of everything we build.

We’ve designed Scrypt Wallet to put control where it belongs: in your hands. From day one, our infrastructure has been built around a non-custodial model, meaning we never take possession of your digital assets or private keys. You—and only you—hold the keys to your wallet.

Our approach to security is grounded in the following principles:

  • User Control by Design: Scrypt Wallet is self-custodial. This means you control your wallet, your tokens, and your private keys at all times. We do not have access to your funds, and we never store your seed phrase or secret keys on our servers.

  • Minimal Data Storage: We collect as little user data as possible. This reduces your exposure and keeps your experience private and secure.

  • End-to-End Protection: While we can’t control external threats like phishing, malware, or device compromise, we work to ensure that our app is hardened against known attack vectors and remains transparent about best practices for digital asset safety.

  • No Backdoors. No Shortcuts: We will never implement features that give us access to your funds or compromise the integrity of your wallet for convenience.

8. Disclosures and Clarification

  • Diagnostics: Crash logs, bug reports, and system-level data to maintain stability and compatibility.

  • Device Info: OS version, device type, and app version for debugging purposes.

  • Coarse Location: Derived indirectly from IP address, used temporarily for security and compliance purposes only.
