Privacy Policy
Last Updated: December 22, 2025
Introduction
BlockRun ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share information when you use our AI model gateway service and x402 payment infrastructure.
No Identity Required: BlockRun does not collect personal identity information (name, email, phone number, KYC documents, etc.). You connect your wallet and pay - that's it. Wallet addresses are pseudonymous and do not inherently reveal your identity.
By using BlockRun, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
Information We Collect
1. API Usage Data
When you use our API, we collect:
- API requests and responses (prompts and completions)
- Model selection and parameters
- Token usage and pricing information
- Timestamps and request metadata
2. Payment Information
For x402 payments, we collect:
- Blockchain wallet addresses (public)
- Transaction signatures and payment proofs
- Payment amounts and network information
- Transaction hashes (publicly available on blockchain)
Note: Wallet addresses and transaction data are already public on the blockchain - anyone can view them using a block explorer. We do not collect or store private keys, seed phrases, or any credentials that provide access to your wallet. All payments are processed using EIP-3009 TransferWithAuthorization, which keeps your private keys on your device.
When you use BlockRun, you're sharing your wallet address to receive payment requests and make on-chain transactions. This is standard for all blockchain payments and poses no security risk to your wallet.
3. Website Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how users interact with our website:
- Page views and navigation patterns
- Device and browser information
- Geographic location (country/city level)
- Referral sources
