Hint purchases and prize payouts are processed on the Solana blockchain. Blockchain transactions are publicly visible and irreversible by nature. We do not control the Solana network and cannot modify or delete on-chain transaction records.

5. Data Storage and Security

Your data is stored on our servers. We use reasonable security measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Third-Party Services

The Service interacts with third-party services including Solana RPC providers for blockchain transactions and museum APIs (Art Institute of Chicago, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Rijksmuseum) for painting data. These services have their own privacy policies.

7. Cookies

We do not use tracking cookies or third-party analytics. Wallet connection state is managed client-side by your browser wallet extension.

8. Children

The Service is not intended for users under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
