Privacy Policy

Rug.Tools is a public tool for analyzing Solana, Ethereum, BNB Chain, Base, Monad and Robinhood Chain tokens. You do not need an account, wallet connection, or email to use it. This page explains what limited data we handle and why.

• Search inputs: the mint address or token URL you paste. We use it only to run the analysis and cache the resulting report.
• Cached reports: public on-chain analysis results (holder counts, liquidity, risk score) stored so repeat lookups are faster and cheaper.
• Standard server logs: IP address, user-agent, request path, and timestamps kept for a short period for security, abuse prevention, and debugging.

• No Rug.Tools account is required to use the public token scanner or ChangeNOW exchange interface.
• We do not ask for, receive, or store private keys or seed phrases.
• We do not sell or rent personal data to third parties.

To build reports we query public APIs including Helius, Alchemy, DexScreener, GeckoTerminal, GoPlus, CoinMarketCap, Solscan, Etherscan, BscScan, BaseScan, MonadScan and Blockscout, along with public RPC nodes for each supported chain. These providers may log requests they receive from our servers under their own policies, and we do not control their availability, accuracy or retention practices. Outbound share links (e.g. X/Twitter, Telegram) are subject to those platforms' own privacy terms.

When you use the Exchange page, the information needed to request a quote or create and track an order may pass through Rug.Tools servers and be transmitted to ChangeNOW. This can include the assets and networks selected, amount, destination wallet address, optional refund address, memo or tag, rate information, order ID, transaction status, and related blockchain transaction identifiers. Rug.Tools does not receive your private keys or seed phrase and does not take custody of the funds you send.

ChangeNOW independently processes exchange and compliance information under its own privacy policy and may require identity or source-of-funds information for KYC/AML, sanctions, fraud-prevention, or other legal and compliance purposes. Any information you provide directly to ChangeNOW or its verification providers is governed by their policies, not this Privacy Policy. Rug.Tools cannot control ChangeNOW's retention, disclosure, verification, or regulatory practices.

Rug.Tools infrastructure may also process standard request metadata such as IP address, browser information, timestamps, and request paths for security, abuse prevention, rate limiting, debugging, and service operation. Exchange API responses are sent with no-store caching instructions, but infrastructure and security providers may retain technical logs according to their own retention policies.

Rug.Tools uses essential cookies required for the site to function and Google Analytics to understand aggregate site usage. Google may receive technical data such as your IP address, browser and visited pages under its own privacy terms. We do not use analytics to collect wallet keys or private blockchain credentials.

Cached token reports are retained indefinitely because they describe public blockchain data. Server logs are rotated on a rolling short-term basis.

Because we do not collect personal accounts, there is generally nothing tied to you personally to export or delete. If you believe a cached report should be removed, contact us via our Telegram and we will review the request.

Rug.Tools is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. Cached reports and third-party data may be incomplete, delayed or incorrect, and results are automated and informational only — never financial advice or a guarantee that a token is safe. Your use of the service is governed by our Terms of Service, which include important no-warranty, limitation of liability and indemnification provisions.

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date above. See also our Disclaimer and Terms of Service.
