Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Friendly Market (“the Protocol”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) handles information when you use our decentralized finance protocol. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices.

As a decentralized protocol, we operate differently from traditional web services. Most interactions occur directly on-chain without our involvement or data collection.

• Transaction details or balances (these are public on the blockchain)

• Cookies for tracking or advertising purposes

2.2 Information We May Collect

• Website Usage Data: Anonymous analytics about how users interact with our interface
• Technical Data: Browser type, device information, IP address (for performance optimization)
• Error Reports: Technical errors to help us improve the Protocol

5.3 Analytics Services

• Data is stored securely with encryption in transit and at rest
• Access to data is limited to authorized personnel only
• We regularly review and update our security practices
