Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 22, 2026
01Scope and Overview
This Privacy Policy explains how PortView collects, uses, discloses, stores, and protects information when you access or use PortView's website, app, trading interface, portfolio tools, analytics features, subscriptions, and related services (collectively, the “Service”). By using the Service, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
Because PortView interacts with public blockchain infrastructure and third-party providers, some information connected to your use of the Service may already be public, may become public when broadcast to a blockchain or third-party network, or may be processed by third parties outside PortView's control.
02Information PortView May Collect
PortView may collect information directly from you, automatically from your device or browser, from your interactions with the Service, from public blockchains, and from third parties that help power the Service.
- Identifiers and account-linked information: public wallet addresses, public keys, usernames, profile images, subscription or payment-related identifiers, and similar account or account-linked data.
- Trading and portfolio information: balances, holdings, order inputs, trade history, simulated trade outputs, performance metrics, watchlist or preference data, and portfolio analytics derived from your activity or public blockchain data.
- Usage and technical information: IP address, device and browser data, operating system, timestamps, pages viewed, clicks, referring URLs, crash data, diagnostics, feature usage, approximate geolocation inferred from IP, and similar telemetry.
- Payment and commerce information: billing plan, subscription status, invoices, payment processor metadata, and transaction records. PortView generally does not store full payment card numbers if a third-party processor handles payment.
- Communications and support information: messages you send, responses you provide, survey answers, feedback, and support requests.
- Notification information: price-alert rules and trigger status stored in browser local storage. If you grant notification permission, PortView may display a browser notification while the app is open and receiving fresh market data.
- Cookies and local storage: browser cookies, local storage items, pixels, and similar technologies used to remember preferences, keep sessions working, understand product usage, or improve performance.
In the current app, account-linked portfolio preferences, linked public accounts, source classifications, dismissed review items, price-alert rules, verified portfolio-value checkpoints, resumable public-chain replay pages, and recent token searches are kept in your browser's local storage or IndexedDB. Saved token-source and cost-basis classifications remain account-scoped on that browser through normal logout so they return when the same account signs in again. Verified portfolio checkpoints and resumable replay pages also remain account-scoped through normal logout so the same wallet can resume quickly. Other current-account records and unscoped recent wallet objects are removed on logout; the explicit clear-data action also removes saved classifications and portfolio caches. Browser-local records are not synchronized to a different device unless you enable encrypted blockchain sync. When enabled, PortView encrypts your saved token-source and cost-basis classifications and submits the encrypted snapshot as wallet-scoped user-association records on DeSo. It does not create a message or chat. The encrypted content can then be restored after you connect that account on another device. The wallet, PortView sync label, transaction time, and fee remain public blockchain metadata. PortView does not receive or store your DeSo seed phrase or private signing key.
03How PortView Uses Information
PortView may use information for the following purposes:
- to provide, maintain, secure, debug, and improve the Service;
- to authenticate users and connected identities and to facilitate user-initiated actions;
- to display portfolio data, market data, order-book information, charts, trade estimates, and analytics;
- to process subscriptions, billing, renewals, receipts, and service-related notices;
- to send price alerts and other notifications you request;
- to personalize features, remember preferences, and tailor the user experience;
- to monitor, detect, investigate, prevent, or address fraud, abuse, unauthorized access, security incidents, or violations of law or policy;
- to comply with legal obligations, enforce agreements, respond to lawful requests, and protect rights, safety, and property;
- to generate aggregated, de-identified, or statistical insights that do not reasonably identify you, except where applicable law treats such data differently.
04Public Blockchain Data
Blockchain data is generally public, permanent, and difficult or impossible to delete. If you connect a wallet, use on-chain functionality, or submit a transaction through the Service or a connected provider, information relating to those actions may be publicly visible on the applicable blockchain or through explorers, nodes, analytics tools, and third-party data providers. PortView cannot erase or control information once it is publicly recorded on a blockchain.
05How PortView Shares Information
PortView may share information as follows:
- with vendors and service providers that support hosting, analytics, payments, customer support, security, fraud prevention, communications, infrastructure, and product operations;
- with identity providers, wallet providers, payment processors, blockchain nodes, APIs, indexers, analytics tools, or similar third parties when needed to support the Service or a user-initiated action;
- with advisors, auditors, insurers, acquirers, investors, or counterparties in connection with financing, diligence, restructuring, merger, acquisition, sale of assets, or similar corporate transactions;
- with regulators, courts, law enforcement, or other third parties when PortView believes disclosure is required or appropriate to comply with law, respond to legal process, protect rights or safety, investigate wrongdoing, or enforce agreements;
- with your consent, at your direction, or as otherwise disclosed at the time of collection.
PortView may also disclose aggregated or de-identified information that does not reasonably identify you, subject to applicable law.
Current portfolio and trading requests may reach DeSo node and index APIs and Focus market APIs. Historical DESO pricing may use Coinbase-derived public market data, and hosting may run on Vercel. These services receive the network metadata necessarily included in requests made to them. Price-alert rules stay in your browser and are not registered with a server-side push service.
06Cookies, Analytics, and Similar Technologies
PortView may use cookies, local storage, analytics scripts, SDKs, or similar technologies to operate the Service, remember your settings, understand usage patterns, detect issues, and improve performance. Some technologies are necessary for core functionality; others help PortView analyze traffic or product engagement.
You may be able to disable certain cookies or clear browser storage through your browser or device settings, but doing so may break or limit features. Blocking some technologies will not remove public blockchain data or prevent third parties from collecting information through their own systems.
07Data Retention
PortView may retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to provide the Service, maintain records, resolve disputes, investigate incidents, comply with legal obligations, and enforce agreements. Retention periods may vary by data type, sensitivity, operational need, and legal requirements. Public blockchain data may persist indefinitely outside PortView's control.
Price-alert rules, trigger history, and verified portfolio-value checkpoints remain in browser local storage until PortView's clear-data action, browser storage deletion, or an application migration removes them. Saved token-source and cost-basis classifications remain on the same browser through logout until the clear-data action, browser storage deletion, or an application migration removes them. If you enable encrypted blockchain sync, encrypted snapshots may remain permanently on DeSo even after you clear browser storage or pause future backups. The message transaction's sender, recipient, timestamp, and fee are public blockchain data, while the saved classifications inside the message are encrypted. Each new backup requires a signed transaction and a network fee. Portfolio-value checkpoints and resumable public-chain replay pages stay on the same browser through logout and are not synchronized by encrypted blockchain sync. Other browser-local wallet records remain until logout or those same removal events. Public blockchain data and records held independently by infrastructure providers follow those providers' retention rules.
08Data Security
PortView uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information, but no system is completely secure. PortView cannot guarantee that information will never be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach, attack, human error, software bug, infrastructure failure, or other events. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your own devices, accounts, browsers, extensions, and credentials.
09International Transfers
PortView and its service providers may process information in the United States and other countries where privacy laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction. By using the Service, you understand that information may be transferred to, stored in, or accessed from jurisdictions outside your place of residence, subject to applicable law.
10Your Choices and Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of, restriction of, portability of, or objection to certain processing of personal information, and to appeal certain decisions regarding those requests. PortView may need to verify your identity and may deny or limit requests where permitted by law, including where an exception applies, where the request concerns data PortView cannot reasonably associate with you, or where the relevant information is maintained only on a public blockchain or by third parties.
You may also opt out of some promotional communications by following the unsubscribe instructions in those messages. Service, billing, legal, security, and account notices may still be sent when necessary.
11Children's Privacy
The Service is not directed to children, and PortView does not intend to knowingly collect personal information from children under the age at which consent is legally required in the relevant jurisdiction. If you believe a child provided information in violation of this policy, contact PortView through the contact method made available on the website or in the app so appropriate steps can be considered.
12Third-Party Links and Services
The Service may contain links to or integrations with third-party services. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those third parties, and PortView is not responsible for their privacy or security practices. Review their policies before interacting with them.
13Do Not Track and Similar Signals
Because there is not yet a universally accepted standard for browser-based “Do Not Track” signals, PortView may not respond to such signals in all circumstances unless required by applicable law.
14Region-Specific Disclosures
If you are a resident of a jurisdiction that grants additional privacy rights, including certain U.S. states, the EEA, the UK, or similar jurisdictions, PortView will honor rights that apply to PortView under applicable law. PortView may act as a controller, business, or similar role depending on context. The specific categories of personal information collected, disclosed, and retained will vary depending on how you use the Service.
PortView does not sell personal information for money. However, some laws define “sale,” “share,” or “targeted advertising” broadly. To the extent those laws apply and PortView engages in activity covered by those definitions, PortView will provide rights and choices as required by law.
15Changes to This Privacy Policy
PortView may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version becomes effective when posted, unless stated otherwise. Your continued use of the Service after an updated Privacy Policy becomes effective constitutes acknowledgment of the updated policy.
16Contact and Requests
For privacy questions or requests, use the contact method made available by PortView on its website or within the Service. To protect users and the Service, PortView may require reasonable verification before acting on any request.
