Privacy

Short version: we don't collect personal information, we don't use tracking cookies, and nothing you type into a calculator, search box or checklist leaves your browser.

Calculators and search

All calculations, the site search and the scam checker run entirely on your device. The numbers and answers you enter are not sent to us or anyone else.

Stored on your device

If you switch between light and dark mode, that choice is saved in your browser's local storage (key wic:theme). Live prices are kept for one minute in session storage (keys starting wic:px or wic:top), which your browser deletes when you close the tab. If you use the portfolio tracker, your holdings are saved in local storage on your device (key wic:portfolio), with the last prices it saw (key wic:portfolio:px), so it can show something if prices can't load. They are never sent to us or anyone else. If you tick items on a safety checklist, your ticks are saved in local storage (keys starting wic:ck:) so they're still there when you come back; they never leave your device. You can clear all of this at any time by clearing site data in your browser.

Hosting

The site is served by Cloudflare, which, like any web host, processes basic technical information such as IP addresses to deliver pages and protect against attacks. We don't add analytics or advertising trackers.

Live prices

Pages that show live prices (the price pages, coin fact sheets, comparison pages, the portfolio tracker, the XRP calculator, the crypto converter, the home page and the price ticker) ask CoinGecko's public API for current prices directly from your browser. That request contains no personal information from us, but like any web request it reaches CoinGecko's servers with your IP address and browser details, and CoinGecko's privacy policy applies to it. Prices are kept in your browser for one minute so they aren't requested again on every page. The request lists only coin ids (or, on the portfolio tracker and converter, simply asks for the top 100 coins); it never includes amounts or anything you type into a calculator or the portfolio tracker. The market cap and fully diluted valuation calculators use the same price data to fill in their fields. The Bitcoin dominance page also asks CoinGecko's public global-market endpoint for total market figures, kept for one minute in session storage (key wic:global); that request contains no input from you either.

Changes

If this ever changes (for example, if privacy-respecting analytics are added), this page will be updated first. Last updated November 5, 2026.
