Who we are

This store is, however, funded and overseen by the Rocket Pool Protocol DAO’s Grants and Management Committee (GMC). All profits go to the GMC.

data privacy

An attempt is made to keep personal data as private as possible, sometimes even at the expense of user experience (like returns) and functionality (for example, quALITY OF COMMUNICATION).

This is because we strive to collect the minimum amount of private data and destroy that data as soon as we can. This might prevent ability to return an item (when we no longer can verify your purchase) or for us to be able to communicate with you about your order (if we do not collect — or have disposed of — your contact information).

auto deletion of data

After your order is made, your shipping data is sent to our third party print-on-demand dropshipper. In most cases, that is printify. see details on printify’s policy below in subsection “Who we share your data with”.

After your order is complete (when the shipper notifies us the item has shipped, which is an automated process), your data will be deleted from our servers.

At anytime before that, you can request deletion of your personal data in compliance with international data standards, including GDPR (Article 5 1.(c)). If you request data deletion prior to order completion, it might interfere with returns and updates, but should not affect order delivery.

cancelled or unfulfilled orders will have personal data deleted.

crypto currency purchases

If you purchase with crypto payments via coinbase commerce, we recommend you Don’t use your real name on the order. in addition, use a spare wallet that minimally identifies your crypto holdings.

how the user can maintain privacy

we do not need to know your real name.

you can use a friend’s/family member’s/neighbor’s address for shipping (with their consent).

set up a throwaway or dedicated email for purchases that does not otherwise dox you.

your private data will be deleted on order completion unless you leave reviews, comments or create an account.
