Introduction
Lumen Network respects your privacy. As a decentralized protocol, we minimize data collection. This policy explains what minimal information we process and how we protect it.
Blockchain Data
Public & Permanent
All blockchain transactions are permanently public and cannot be deleted:
- Wallet addresses
- Transaction amounts and timestamps
- Validator voting records
Important: Once on the blockchain, this data is permanent and visible to everyone.
Browser & Gateway Data
No Telemetry by Default
Lumen Browser is local-first and does not send usage analytics to us. CID retrieval, IPFS activity, and gateway interactions happen between your device and the networks/services you choose.
May keep local logs/metrics on your machine (not sent to us).
Run by independent providers and may have their own access logs.
We do NOT track: Your browsing history, IP addresses, or personal identifiers.
