Privacy

Privacy at pev.

Short version: pev collects almost nothing. No accounts, no emails, no wallet addresses. We load Google Analytics 4 for every visitor with anonymize_ip enabled, which gives us aggregate pageview counts and not much else. If you'd rather not share even that, an ad blocker or browser DNT stops the script from loading. The rest of this page is the long version.

What Google Analytics records

Google Analytics 4 loads on every page and records:
  • The URL of each page you visit on pev.silknodes.io
  • How long you stay on each page
  • Your browser type and operating system
  • Your country, sometimes city-level (your IP is anonymized before storage)
  • Whether you arrived via a link, a search, or directly
That's it. We don't link any of this to a real person; Google Analytics shows us aggregate dashboards, not individual sessions.

How to opt out

Any of these stop GA from loading on pev:
  • An ad blocker (uBlock Origin, Brave Shields, etc.)
  • Your browser's Do Not Track setting
  • The official Google Analytics Opt-out add-on
We don't check whether you've blocked us. You don't need to ask permission. The site works identically with or without GA.

What pev does NOT collect

  • Email addresses (you have no way to give us one)
  • Names, phone numbers, locations, or any personally identifying information
  • Wallet addresses you paste into the search bar (those queries run server-side without being logged)
  • Anything from the keyboard while you type into the search bar
  • Browser fingerprints or device identifiers
  • Behavior on other websites

On-chain data

pev displays public Monad mainnet data: contract addresses, transaction hashes, block numbers, storage slots. These are public chain identifiers, visible to anyone running a Monad node. We index them and surface them in readable views; we don't link them to people, and you should assume anyone who can read a chain explorer can see the same data.

Third parties

When you click an external link in pev (Sourcify for contract verification, the 4byte directory for method names, Silk Nodes' main site), those services have their own privacy policies and we don't control what they collect. We don't share data with any of them. They only see the request when you click the link.

API access

pev exposes read-only JSON endpoints under /api/v1/ for developers. These have no authentication and we don't log identifying info about who calls them, only the standard request headers needed to serve the response. If we ever add rate limiting we'll need to log IPs short-term to do it; that change will be announced here.

If you want pev to forget you

We have nothing to forget. pev itself has no record of you (no cookies, no localStorage, no server-side log of who you are). Google Analytics keeps aggregate session data on its end; we've configured the property to delete it after 14 months. If you want even the aggregate counts gone, use an ad blocker so GA never loads in the first place.

Changes to this policy

If we change what pev collects, we'll update this page and bump the date below. There's no mailing list to subscribe to. Re-read whenever.
