What we do not collect
There is no registration, so there is no name, email address, password or profile. There is no analytics script, no tag manager, no session recorder and no advertising pixel on any page - you can confirm this by opening the network tab, or by reading app/layout.tsx, which is the only place such a script could be injected.
We set no cookies. Nothing on this site asks for a cookie banner because there is nothing to consent to.
What your browser stores
Two things, both local to your device, neither readable by us:
- One preference. The key
vaticr:rail-collapsedremembers whether you collapsed the sidebar. Clearing site data resets it and nothing else. - Your wallet's own state. If you connect a wallet, the connection library (wagmi) and, where you use it, WalletConnect store their session in your browser so a refresh does not disconnect you. That storage belongs to those tools and to your wallet, and is governed by their policies, not this one.
What the server sees
The web app and the forecasting service keep ordinary request logs - IP address, timestamp, path, user agent - the same records any web server writes, retained by the host for operational and security purposes. They are not joined to a wallet address, not used to build a profile, and not shared.
The forecasting service stores forecasts, not people. Its records are market identifiers, probabilities, volatility estimates and settlement outcomes. No field in that store identifies a user, because no user is ever passed to it.
What is public on-chain, and permanently
This is the part worth reading twice. Anything you do through Vaticr that touches Somnia is a public blockchain transaction: your wallet address, the orders you place, the positions you hold and the winnings you claim. So is every forecast the agent commits to its registry contract - that permanence is the point of committing them.
We do not publish this data; the chain does. Neither we nor anyone else can delete or amend it, which is a property of the network rather than a choice we made. Assume that anything you sign is public forever, and connect a wallet whose history you are comfortable with.
Third parties
Using the app causes requests to services we do not operate:
- A Somnia RPC endpoint, to read chain state and submit the transactions you sign. It sees your IP address and your requests.
- The DreamDEX indexer, for market and order-book data.
- Your wallet, which has its own policy and its own telemetry. We never receive your private key or seed phrase, and there is no code path in this project that could ask for one.
- Public news feeds (RSS, and CryptoPanic where an API key is configured) - requested by the server on a schedule, never by your browser, and with nothing about you attached.
What we never do
We do not sell data, share it with advertisers, or profile users. There is no mechanism in the codebase to do any of these things, and the codebase is the authority on this page.
This is testnet software
Vaticr runs on Somnia's Shannon testnet and was built for a hackathon. It is a working system, not a hosted commercial service with an operations team behind it. Treat it accordingly.
