Privacy Policy

Effective: April 30, 2026 · Last updated: May 24, 2026

KIMPWATDA (“the Service”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy describes what information is collected, how it is used, and your rights regarding that information.

1. Information Collected

The Service can be used without creating an account. The following information may be collected during use.

Automatically collected

  • IP address, browser type and version, operating system, access time (server logs)
  • Pages visited, time on site, click and scroll behavior (analytics tools)
  • Service usage data collected via cookies and similar tracking technologies

Voluntarily provided

  • Chat: nickname, message content, IP address at time of submission
  • Price alert subscription: web push subscription token (endpoint, encryption keys)

Telegram-linked chat

  • The Service bridges a linked Telegram group with the web chat in real time.
  • Sender identifiers (user_id) provided by the Telegram API are never stored in their original form. They are immediately converted to an anonymous SHA-256 hash. No original account data is retained.
  • What is stored: anonymous hash, message content, timestamp.

Telegram login (optional)

  • The Service offers optional sign-in via Telegram account.
  • Data received from Telegram: numeric user ID, display name, username (if set).
  • This data is used solely to provide account features such as nickname settings and alert sync.
  • Passwords, phone numbers, and message content are never collected.
  • If you do not log in, none of the above is collected.
  • Retention: deleted immediately upon account deletion (available from your profile settings page).

Preferences

  • Not logged in: watchlist, exchange selection, theme, and other preferences are stored only in your browser's local storage and are never sent to our servers.
  • Logged in: preferences such as watchlist, settings, and alert rules are stored on our servers for cross-device sync and alert delivery.

  • Chat messages (nickname, content, IP): automatically deleted 30 days after posting
  • Web push subscription tokens: deleted immediately when you unsubscribe from alerts
