Privacy Policy
SOBTC.NET is built around a fundamental belief: your data belongs to you. We do not sell, share, or monetize user information. We do not run ads. We do not track behavior across the web.
Server access logs — which may temporarily contain IP addresses as part of standard network operation — are automatically rotated and purged every 24 hours.
Log files are limited to a maximum of 10MB and are never retained beyond a single rotation cycle. No IP address data is stored in our database, analyzed, or shared with any third party.
This policy is enforced at the infrastructure level — not just as a promise — through automatic log rotation configured directly in our container runtime.
Your identity on SOBTC.NET is cryptographic. When you register, you receive an BTC KEY — a unique cryptographic key that serves as your authentication credential. We do not know who you are. Only you hold your BTC KEY.
If you lose your BTC KEY, we cannot recover it. There is no email reset. This is a feature, not a bug — it means no one can be forced to reveal your identity.
All content is stored on IPFS — a distributed network with no central point of control. Once published, content exists across multiple nodes worldwide. No single authority, including SOBTC.NET, can remove content from IPFS. This makes your content resistant to censorship and takedown requests.
SOBTC.NET automatically deletes all posts from its index 24 hours after publication. This is a core privacy protection — not an optional feature.
Upon deletion, SOBTC.NET removes the content reference from its database, making the post invisible to all users and inaccessible through any SOBTC.NET URL. Search engines are notified to deindex the content, preventing further distribution of potentially sensitive information published intentionally or unintentionally.
This policy reflects our commitment to minimizing data retention and protecting users from the long-term consequences of public content. It also reduces the platform's exposure to legal and jurisdictional risk globally.
We do not monitor, moderate, or control what you publish beyond enforcing our Terms of Service in response to reported violations. We do not have the ability to read your private messages — because we do not have private messages. All content on SOBTC.NET is public.
Bitcoin transactions are public on the blockchain. Donation amounts and wallet addresses are visible to anyone with a block explorer. We recommend using a wallet address that is not linked to your real identity if you require additional financial privacy.
SOBTC.NET is a receiving gateway — not a custodian. Your OIO wallet address is platform-generated and does not expose your personal cold wallet or hardware wallet address. This protects you from on-chain surveillance, balance tracking, and transaction graph analysis.
The platform will notify you when your balance reaches the minimum withdrawal threshold (100,000 sat). We strongly recommend withdrawing to your own wallet regularly and not storing funds on the platform long-term.
