Privacy

CryptoBlog does not ask you to create an account and does not sell personal data.

Our web host keeps standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages requested) for security and troubleshooting. The site runs behind Cloudflare, which handles requests to protect and speed up the site. Images are delivered through WordPress.com's image service (i0.wp.com), which sees your IP address when it sends an image, like any web server.

Embedded YouTube videos load only after you press play, from youtube-nocookie.com. From that point YouTube's own privacy policy applies.
