Orca Crypto collects the minimum data needed to run an education website. We do not sell personal data, we do not run advertising trackers, and we do not require an account to read anything. Contact form submissions go to our email inbox through FormSubmit. Live price data is fetched by your browser directly from CoinGecko and CoinPaprika.
What we collect
When you submit a form. Your name, email address, the topic you selected, and whatever you write in the message. This is delivered to our email inbox and stored there so we can reply.
When you browse. Standard server logs kept by our hosting provider, which typically include IP address, browser type and pages requested. These are used for security and to keep the site running.
Analytics. We use Google Analytics to see which pages get read and roughly where readers are, so we know what to write next. It runs in cookieless mode on every page, which means it records page views, the referring page, an approximate location from your IP address, and device and browser type, but it stores nothing on your device and cannot recognize you from one visit to the next. That is why this site has no cookie banner to dismiss: there is no cookie to consent to. Any tracker blocker will stop it and the site works exactly the same with it blocked.
What we do not collect. We do not require an account. We do not run advertising, we do not sell data, and we do not build profiles of individual readers. We never ask for wallet addresses, private keys or seed phrases.
Third parties involved
| Service | What it does | What it receives |
|---|---|---|
| FormSubmit | Delivers contact form submissions to our inbox | Whatever you type into the form |
| CoinGecko | Supplies live price data | Your browser requests price data directly. We do not proxy or log it |
| CoinPaprika | Supplies live price data when CoinGecko is busy | Your browser requests price data directly. We do not proxy or log it |
| DEX Screener | Supplies live $OCX market data | Your browser requests the token data directly. We do not proxy or log it |
| Google Analytics | Tells us which pages get read and roughly where readers come from | Page views, referring page, approximate location from IP, and device and browser type. It runs cookieless, so nothing is stored on your device and you cannot be recognized across visits. |
| Google Translate | Powers the language switcher | If you choose a language, that request goes to Google under their policy |
| Our hosting provider | Serves the website | Standard server request logs |
Fonts are self hosted on our own domain, so no font provider receives a request from your browser.
Cookies and storage
This site sets no analytics cookies at all. Google Analytics runs here in cookieless mode, permanently and for everyone. It counts page views, the page that sent you, an approximate location derived from your IP address, and your device and browser type, and it writes nothing to your device, so it cannot tell whether you have been here before. We do not use it for advertising, we do not run ad networks, and we do not build profiles of individual readers.
That is a deliberate choice rather than a technical limit. Granting analytics storage would let us count returning readers more precisely, and it would also mean putting a consent banner in front of every page. The counting is not worth the interruption, so we gave it up and removed the banner with it. If that ever changes, the banner comes back first.
Most browsers let you block this anyway, and a tracker blocker or the browser setting described on our Brave page will stop it entirely. Nothing on this site stops working if you do.
Beyond that, the site uses your browser sessionStorage to briefly cache live price data so we do not request it repeatedly, and localStorage to remember the $OCX holder count for a day. That data never leaves your browser.
Third party services you choose to visit, such as an exchange you reach through one of our links, set their own cookies under their own policies.
Referral links
Some outbound links to platforms are referral links. If you sign up through one, the platform may tell us that a referral occurred and pay us a commission. They do not tell us who you are or what you do on their service, and we receive no personal information about you from them.
Referral relationships are disclosed on every page where those links appear.
