Ethereum infrastructure provider ConsenSys has issued a follow-up statement to its privacy policy update that rattled the MetaMask community last month.
The firm clarified that it does, in fact, collect users’ IP addresses and wallet information when they make a MetaMask transaction through Infura – but plans to reduce its retention of such data down to seven days.
Privacy Concerns at ConsenSys
Per the company’s statement on Tuesday, November’s policy update did not reflect a change in business practices at ConsenSys but rather served to clarify its existing practices. The update revealed that the company’s key products, MetaMask and Infura, collected both users’ wallet and IP addresses, raising privacy concerns.
"ConsenSys is committed to maintaining the highest standards when it comes to your privacy"
Also, we collect basically every available piece of data from you other than a DNA sample.
