Last Updated: August 28, 2026Last Updated: August 28, 2026

Short version: we collect as little as possible, never sell anything, and don't try to know who you are.

What we collectWhat we collect

• Your nym and, if you sign in by email, the email address used for login codes.
• If you attach a wallet (optional): its address and a private view key, so we can watch for incoming tips and rewards. View keys can only watch — they can never spend. They're stored encrypted, and your spending keys never touch our servers.
• The posts and comments you submit.
• Tips, downvotes, fees, and payouts are Monero transactions — visible on the blockchain.
• Page view counts, via Plausible (cookieless, proxied through our own infrastructure).

How we use itHow we use it

To run the site: deliver login codes, watch your wallet for payments, display your content, count visitors. No ad or tracking cookies — only a session cookie and a short-lived referral cookie. IP addresses pass through transiently (as with any web server) and are not stored or tied to your account.

What we don't doWhat we don't do

No ads. No trackers. No selling or sharing of your data. No identity verification, and no attempt to identify you.

Good to knowGood to know

Monero hides senders, recipients, and amounts on-chain. Analysis of your wallet outside this site is beyond our control. The site isn't intended for anyone under 18.

Your dataYour data

You can change your email, wallet, and account info in settings. To delete your account or its data, email hello@stasher.news. If we change this policy, we'll post the update here.
