Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 2025

1. Overview

Poly Terminal ("we", "us", "our") operates the Poly Terminal trading interface accessible at poly-terminal.com. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what rights you have in relation to it. We take data minimisation seriously: we collect only what is necessary to operate the product.

2. Information we collect

Information you provide directly:

  • Your email address when you create an account or subscribe to updates.
  • Your name, email, and message content when you submit a contact form.
  • Workspace configuration preferences you set within the terminal (e.g., market watchlists, layout settings).

Information collected automatically:

  • Wallet addresses used to connect to Polymarket through our interface. We do not store private keys — connection is read-only from our perspective.
  • Usage data such as pages visited, features used, and session duration, collected via privacy-respecting analytics.
  • IP address and basic browser/device information for security and fraud prevention purposes.

Information we do NOT collect:

  • Your private keys or seed phrases. We never request these and will never ask for them.
  • Your full financial history beyond what is necessary to display your Polymarket positions.
  • Any sensitive personal information (health data, government IDs, etc.).

3. How we use your information

  • To operate and improve the Poly Terminal product.
  • To send you product updates, changelog notifications, and account-related communications (you can opt out at any time).
  • To respond to support requests and contact form submissions.
  • To detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and security incidents.
  • To comply with our legal obligations.

4. Data sharing

We do not sell your personal data. We may share data with:

  • Service providers who help us operate the product (e.g., hosting, analytics, email delivery). These providers are bound by data processing agreements and may not use your data for their own purposes.
  • Law enforcement or regulators when required by applicable law or to protect the rights and safety of users.
  • Successors in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, in which case users will be notified.

5. Data retention

We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service. If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymise your personal data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal or regulatory reasons.

6. Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights:

  • Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Correction: Request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Deletion: Request that we delete your personal data.
  • Portability: Request a machine-readable export of your data.
  • Opt-out: Unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time via the link in any email we send you.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@poly-terminal.com.

7. Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the product, remember your preferences, and analyse usage. See our Cookie Policy for full details.

8. Security

We use industry-standard security measures including encryption in transit (TLS), encryption at rest for sensitive data, and access controls limiting who can access personal data. No system is 100% secure; if you have reason to believe your data has been compromised, contact us immediately at security@poly-terminal.com.

9. Children

Poly Terminal is not intended for users under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If you believe we have inadvertently collected data from a minor, contact us immediately.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by email or by a prominent notice on the website. Your continued use of the product after changes constitute acceptance of the updated policy.
