Privacy Policy

Offset (“Offset”, “we”, “our”, or “us”), an interface operated by VSP Services LLC, a California limited liability company, is a non-custodial technology interface. We are committed to protecting your privacy by minimizing data collection and limiting processing to what is strictly necessary to operate a blockchain-based system. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, process, store, and protect information in connection with your access to and use of the Offset interface, websites, and related services (collectively, the “Services”).

We do not associate wallet addresses with any personally identifiable information (PII). By accessing or using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to this Privacy Policy.

Offset is designed to function without collecting traditional personal data. We do not collect, request, require, or store information such as names, email addresses, telephone numbers, physical addresses, government-issued identifiers, biometric data, financial account details, or precise geolocation. Browsing the markets requires no wallet and no account. The only information processed for protocol functionality is your public blockchain wallet address, and only when you choose to connect a wallet to view your positions or submit your own transaction.

We do not associate wallet addresses with real-world identities and do not maintain any off-chain mapping between wallet addresses and identifiable individuals. Wallet addresses are public identifiers by design, and the level of anonymity associated with your use of blockchain technology depends entirely on your own operational-security practices. We do not use your wallet address for marketing, advertising, or cross-platform profiling.

When you connect a wallet, we additionally record certain interface events associated with that wallet address: which protection markets you view or open from a position, the size and leverage of the position at that moment, the price of cover at that moment, orders you submit through the Interface (including the suggested and chosen amounts), early exits, and how those markets ultimately resolved. We record these events to operate the Services (for example, to show which of your positions are protected), to improve the quality of our suggestions, and to produce the aggregated statistics described in Section 5. These records are keyed to your public wallet address only and are never linked to a real-world identity.

When you access the Services, our systems may automatically record certain technical data, including: the IP address of the requesting device; the date and time of access; the country from which the Services are accessed; user-agent, operating-system, and browser details; and the transmission protocol used. This data is processed to enable access, maintain security, and preserve platform integrity, and, where we operate access controls, to help identify access from Prohibited Jurisdictions.

By using the Services, you consent to the processing of your wallet address for protocol-level functionality, and you acknowledge the public, transparent, and irreversible nature of blockchain systems: any transaction associated with your wallet address is permanently recorded on a public ledger accessible to anyone.

Our primary position is that we do not engage in personal-data processing within the meaning of data-protection laws such as the GDPR, CCPA, or similar regimes, as we do not identify users, cannot reverse-map identities, and do not perform profiling or targeted advertising. To the extent any information we process is determined to constitute personal data, we rely on the following bases: contractual necessity (to provide the Services); legitimate interests (security, abuse detection, enforcing eligibility); and consent (where required by law).

We process wallet addresses, interface events, and technical data to: enable interaction with smart contracts; show you which of your positions are protected; improve the quality of the Interface's suggestions; enforce protocol rules and eligibility; maintain system security; detect technical abuse or manipulation; where we operate access controls, help identify access from Prohibited Jurisdictions; preserve platform integrity; and produce the aggregated, anonymized statistics described in Section 5. We do not use wallet addresses for marketing, advertising, user tracking across other platforms, or profiling tied to any real-world identity.

We do not sell, rent, lease, license, or otherwise commercialize wallet addresses or any wallet-level records, and we do not share user information with advertisers, data brokers, or marketing partners. We use a single privacy-focused analytics provider solely for aggregate, non-identifying usage measurement, as described in Section 6. Any other interaction with third parties occurs solely at the blockchain or protocol layer, outside our control. Where disclosure is required by applicable law, regulation, court order, or a competent authority, we may comply without notice.

We may produce, publish, or license statistics, research, indices, and other data products derived from interface usage and market activity in aggregated and anonymized form only. Examples include how often events of a given kind occur, how protective demand relates to market prices, and what share of open positions carries protection ahead of an event. Aggregated data of this kind never includes wallet addresses, never describes any individual wallet's activity, and is prepared so that it cannot reasonably be used to identify any wallet or person.

We use limited device-level technologies for functional and technical purposes only. Your browser’s local storage may hold minimal interface preferences and, only if you use the optional feature to submit an order to Hyperliquid, a locally-generated “agent” signing key (created on your device, never transmitted to or accessible by us, able to place only the orders you authorize but unable to withdraw or transfer your funds, and removed if you clear your browser data). A record linking an order you place to the position it was created for is kept both in your browser and on our servers, keyed to your wallet address, so your protection still shows correctly on a new device; this is part of the interface-event data described in Section 2. These do not identify you individually and do not track you across third-party platforms.

We use Vercel Web Analytics to measure aggregate, privacy-focused usage of the interface, such as page views and anonymous interaction events (for example, clicks on outbound links). This data is collected in aggregate, is not used to identify you, is not sold, and is not associated with your wallet address. We do not use third-party advertising cookies, behavioral tracking pixels, or cross-platform analytics that link your activity to your identity elsewhere. Where required by law, we will seek your consent before deploying non-essential cookies.

To the extent applicable under the laws of your jurisdiction, you may have rights to: access the personal data we process about you; request correction or deletion (subject to legal obligations and the blockchain limitations in Section 8); object to or restrict processing; receive your data in a portable format where technically feasible; withdraw consent; opt out of marketing; and lodge a complaint with the competent data-protection authority in your jurisdiction.

To make a request, contact us at hello@useoffset.xyz. We will use reasonable means to verify your identity and respond within a commercially reasonable timeframe. Some rights may be limited by applicable law or by the technical constraints of decentralized systems. We do not make decisions producing legal effects concerning you based solely on automated processing.

You acknowledge that blockchain data is permanent, immutable, and outside our control. We cannot modify, erase, restrict, or delete blockchain records, and we bear no responsibility for the accessibility, permanence, or public visibility of wallet addresses or transactions. Your on-chain privacy is determined entirely by your own wallet usage, transaction behavior, and security controls. We disclaim all liability arising from blockchain traceability, forensic analysis, or third-party monitoring of public ledgers.

We retain wallet addresses and technical access data only for as long as necessary to provide the Services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce platform rules, and maintain security. Because blockchain data exists independently of our systems, we do not control its long-term retention and cannot fulfill erasure requests for on-chain information.

We implement commercially reasonable technical and organizational security measures, including access controls and secure hosting. However, no digital system is immune from compromise, and decentralized systems carry inherent risk. You are solely responsible for safeguarding your private keys, wallet credentials, and authentication mechanisms. We disclaim all liability for losses arising from wallet breaches, phishing, key compromise, user error, malware, or third-party exploits.

Where required by applicable law, we will provide notification of confirmed security incidents affecting our internal systems within the prescribed timeframes. We are not responsible for breaches occurring at the blockchain, wallet-provider, third-party-service, or user-device level.

We do not knowingly provide Services to minors. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least eighteen (18) years old or the age of majority in your jurisdiction. If we become aware that we have unknowingly collected information relating to a minor, we will make commercially reasonable efforts to delete it.

We may process wallet addresses and technical data in jurisdictions outside your country of residence. By using the Services, you consent to such international transfers. Where applicable law requires safeguards for transfers outside the EEA or UK, we will seek to implement them, which may include standard contractual clauses.

The Services may integrate with or link to third-party platforms, protocols, wallet providers, data feeds, and blockchain networks, including Hyperliquid and third-party prediction-market venues such as Polymarket. When you follow a link to a third-party venue, you leave the Interface and any activity there is governed by that venue’s own terms and privacy policy. We do not control these services and assume no responsibility for their privacy practices, security standards, or data processing.

We may amend this Privacy Policy at any time, reflected by updating the Effective Date above. Continued use of the Services after publication constitutes acceptance of the revised policy. If you do not agree, your sole remedy is to discontinue use of the Services.

The Services are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of anonymity, data exposure, or economic loss arising from your use of the Services.

This Privacy Policy is governed by the laws of the State of California, and any dispute is resolved as set out in the dispute-resolution section of our Terms of Service. For questions or requests relating to this policy, contact us at hello@useoffset.xyz.
