Privacy
Draft, pending legal review. This lists what the ARENA site actually stores today. It has not yet been checked against the GDPR by a lawyer.
Who is responsible
The ARENA team, reachable at [email protected].
What we store, and why
The Season 1 waitlist
If you join the waitlist we store the email address or Solana wallet address you enter, the time you signed up, and the country your connection came from (Cloudflare tells us this; we don’t store your IP address). We use it only to tell you when Season 1 opens. Legal basis: your consent, which you can withdraw at any time.
Coins you launch
When you launch a coin we store its name, ticker, picture and description, your wallet address as its creator, and the launch time. If a launch is started but never completed, these details are deleted automatically after 24 hours. These are public on purpose: they appear on the coin’s page and, through the blockchain, everywhere. Legal basis: providing the service you asked for.
Your connected wallet
When you connect a wallet, the site uses its public address to show your standing, balance and creator fees. We look this up when you ask and do not store it. ARENA never sees your private key or seed phrase.
In your browser
The site remembers your light or dark choice in your browser’s local storage. ARENA uses no cookies, no analytics and no advertising trackers.
The blockchain is public
Everything you do on Solana (launches, trades, balances) is recorded publicly and permanently by the network, not by ARENA. Nobody, including us, can delete it.
Services that see your connection
- Cloudflare hosts the site and stores ARENA’s data. Like every host, it processes your IP address to deliver the pages.
- Google Fonts serves the fonts, and unpkg, jsDelivr and cdnjs serve the page’s code libraries. Your browser connects to them directly.
- Helius (on our side, not your browser) tells us about trades in ARENA coins.
Some of these companies are outside the EU, mostly in the United States. Where personal data goes there, we rely on the safeguards these providers offer for it: the EU–US Data Privacy Framework where the provider is certified, otherwise the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses.
How long
Waitlist entries are deleted 3 months after Season 1 opens, or earlier if you ask. Coin records stay as long as the coin is listed on ARENA.
Your rights
You can ask to see, correct or delete what we store about you, and you can object or withdraw consent. Write to [email protected]. If you’re unhappy with our answer you can complain to your data protection authority (in the Netherlands: the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens).
