Privacy Policy

Last Updated: July 28, 2025

Introduction

Magic Monad LLC ("Eternity Bits," "we," "our," or "us") operates the eternitybits.com website and related services. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of any information you provide while using our services.

This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your information.

Our Privacy Commitment

Eternity Bits is built on the principle of privacy-first design. We never see, store, or have access to the content of your files. All file hashing occurs locally in your browser or through our open-source tools. We only receive and store cryptographic hashes of your files, never the files themselves.

Information We Collect

Information You Provide

  • Payment Information: When you make a purchase, payment details are processed directly by our payment processor, Stripe. We do not store credit card numbers or other sensitive payment information.
  • Email Address: If you choose to provide it for receipts or support communications.

Information Automatically Collected

  • Hashes: The cryptographic hashes of files you choose to timestamp (these cannot be used to reconstruct your original files).
  • IP Addresses: We retain IP addresses associated with hash submissions for security and anti-abuse purposes.
  • Transaction Data: Bitcoin transaction IDs and timestamps related to your anchoring operations.
  • Analytics Data: We use privacy-preserving analytics that do not track individual users or use cookies. This includes aggregated data about page views, general geographic regions (country-level), and feature usage.

Information We Do NOT Collect

  • File Contents: Your files never leave your device. We only receive hashes.
  • Personal Identification: We do not require accounts, names, or other personal identifiers.
  • Browsing History: We do not track your activity across other websites.

How We Use Information

We use the collected information solely for:

  • Service Provision: Processing your timestamp requests and anchoring hashes to the Bitcoin blockchain.
  • Security: Preventing abuse, malicious activity, and ensuring service integrity.
  • Payment Processing: Facilitating payments for our services.
  • Service Improvement: Understanding aggregate usage patterns to improve our services.
  • Legal Compliance: Responding to valid legal requests as required by law.

Data Retention

  • Hashes and Transaction IDs: Retained indefinitely as part of the immutable blockchain record and for verification purposes.
  • IP Addresses: Retained for 90 days for security and anti-abuse purposes.
  • Payment Records: Retained as required for accounting and legal compliance (typically 7 years).

Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your information. We share data only in these limited circumstances:

  • Payment Processing: With Stripe, our payment processor, to facilitate transactions.
  • Legal Requirements: When required by law, valid legal process, or governmental request.
  • Protection of Rights: When necessary to protect our rights, property, or safety, or that of our users or the public.
  • Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, user information may be transferred to the successor entity.

Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have certain rights regarding your information:

  • Access: Request information about what data we hold about you.
  • Deletion: Request deletion of your data, subject to legal and operational requirements.
  • Correction: Request correction of inaccurate information.
  • Portability: Request a copy of your data in a structured format.
  • Objection: Object to certain uses of your information.

To exercise these rights, contact us at privacy@eternitybits.com.

Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your information, including:

  • Client-side hashing to ensure files never leave your device
  • Encrypted connections (HTTPS)
  • Regular security assessments
  • Limited access to user data on a need-to-know basis

However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
