Ethra Protocol / Legal
Privacy Policy
Effective date: March 31, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Ethra Ship ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, stores, and protects information in connection with the EthraShip.com website and the app.ethraship.com portal (collectively, the "Platform"). By accessing or using the Platform, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
We are committed to handling your information responsibly and transparently.
Information We Collect
1.1 Information You Provide Directly
When you interact with the Platform, we may collect:
- Email address, if you sign up for updates or communications
- Wallet addresses you connect to the Platform
- Any information you voluntarily submit through forms, surveys, or support requests
1.2 Information Collected Automatically
When you visit the Platform, we automatically collect certain technical data, including:
- IP address and approximate geographic location
- Browser type, version, and operating system
- Pages visited, time spent, and navigation paths
- Referring URLs and exit pages
- Device type and screen resolution
1.3 Blockchain Data
Because Ethra Ship operates on a public blockchain, certain data is inherently public and immutable. This includes on-chain transactions involving the $SHIP token, wallet addresses, and smart contract interactions. We do not control this data and cannot alter or delete it.
1.4 Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to:
- Maintain session state and authentication
- Analyze Platform usage through aggregated analytics
- Remember user preferences
You can disable cookies through your browser settings, but some features of the Platform may not function correctly as a result.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Operate and improve the Platform
- Authenticate your wallet and display your account data, including Ethra Points, Missions, and leaderboard position
- Send updates, announcements, and communications you have opted into
- Analyze usage patterns and Platform performance
- Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or security threats
- Comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations
We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
Legal Basis for Processing
Where applicable law requires a legal basis for processing personal data, we rely on the following:
- Performance of a contract: to provide the Platform and its features to you
- Legitimate interests: to operate, secure, and improve the Platform
- Consent: where you have opted in to specific communications or cookies
- Legal obligation: where processing is required by applicable law
Sharing of Information
We may share your information in the following circumstances:
4.1 Service Providers
We work with third-party service providers who assist in operating the Platform, including analytics providers, hosting infrastructure, and communication tools. These providers access information only to perform services on our behalf and are bound by confidentiality obligations.
4.2 Legal Requirements
We may disclose information if required to do so by law, regulation, court order, or governmental authority.
4.3 Business Transfers
If Ethra Ship undergoes a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you of any such change in accordance with applicable law.
4.4 Aggregate and Anonymised Data
We may share anonymised, aggregated data that does not identify individual users for research, analytics, or marketing purposes.
Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law. When data is no longer needed, we delete or anonymise it.
Blockchain transaction data is permanent by nature and falls outside our ability to delete or modify.

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you
- Correct inaccurate or incomplete data
- Request deletion of your personal data, where applicable
- Object to or restrict certain types of processing

Security
We implement technical and organisational measures to protect your information against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These include encrypted connections (HTTPS), access controls, and regular security reviews.
No system is entirely secure. In the event of a data breach affecting your rights and freedoms, we will notify you as required by applicable law.
Third-Party Links
The Platform may contain links to third-party websites or protocols. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before sharing any personal information.
