Privacy in the
Age of Autonomy.
Your capital stays in your exchange. Your data stays under your control. We're building infrastructure for the next generation of traders — and that means being radically transparent about what we collect, why, and what we'll never touch.
Our Commitment to Privacy
Perpblock Inc. ("Perpblock," "we," "us," or "our") is an algorithmic trading infrastructure provider. We are deeply committed to protecting the privacy of our members. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the rights you have as a user of our platform.
We operate on a fundamental principle: We operate on a fundamental principle: we should collect only what we absolutely need, protect it as if it were our own, and never use it in ways you wouldn't expect.
This policy applies to all users of the Perpblock platform, including our web application, API integrations, and on-chain audit infrastructure deployed on Base Mainnet.
Core Guarantee: We never have custody of your funds. Our API connections are trade-only — we cannot withdraw, transfer, or access your exchange balance for any purpose other than executing the trades our algorithms generate on your behalf.
What We Collect — and What We Don't
We collect the minimum data necessary to provide a high-performance algorithmic trading service.
Trade-Only API Keys
We collect API keys from your connected exchanges. These keys are scoped to trade-only permissions — they cannot withdraw, transfer, or move your funds under any circumstance.
Basic Account Information
Email address, username, and subscription details needed to provide our service and send transactional communications.
Trade Execution Metadata
Trade logs generated by our algorithms — timestamps, pairs, sizes, and PnL — used to power your dashboard, on-chain anchoring, and AI assistant.
Platform Usage Analytics
Anonymized session data to improve product experience. No fingerprinting, no advertising pixels, no third-party tracking beyond infrastructure providers.
We will NEVER collect or access:
- ✕Private keys or seed phrases
- ✕Withdrawal-capable API access
- ✕Full payment card data
- ✕Government ID documents
- ✕Biometric data of any kind
How We Protect Your Keys
Your API keys are the most sensitive data we handle. We treat them with military-grade encryption and strict access controls.
Encryption Standard
AES-256-GCM
All API credentials are encrypted before being written to storage. The decryption key is held in a separate, isolated vault service — never co-located with your API credentials. Even in the event of a database breach, your keys cannot be decrypted without vault access.
Public Trade Anchoring
Unlike any other platform, Perpblock anchors every trade execution to Base L2 — a public, immutable blockchain. This means our trade history is permanently verifiable by anyone. This is a feature, not a bug.

Every trade execution is hashed using keccak256 and submitted to our AnchorLog smart contract on Base Mainnet. The hash includes: pair, side, size, entry price, exit price, timestamp, and fee.
Anyone can recompute this hash from the raw trade data and verify its existence on Basescan. This is not a promise — it's a cryptographic guarantee.

The on-chain trade hashes are not personal data in the GDPR sense — they contain no identifying information.
Because these records are on a public blockchain, they cannot be deleted. If you close your Perpblock account, your historical trade hashes remain on-chain — this is the nature of immutable ledgers and is disclosed at the time of account creation.
Purpose-Bound Data Use
We use your data only for the purpose it was collected. Full stop.
Trade execution
API keys are used solely to place and manage orders on your behalf via our algorithms.
Portfolio dashboard
Trade metadata powers your performance dashboard, equity curves, and AI assistant context.
Smart alerts
Your email is used to send trade confirmations, alert notifications, and account security messages.
AI assistant
Your portfolio state is fed to the AI assistant only when you actively use it — never stored in AI provider logs beyond the session.
On-chain anchoring
Trade metadata is hashed and submitted to Base L2 for permanent verification.
