1. Introduction
Soxway (“we”, “our”, or “us”) is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your data when you use our website at soxway.io and proxy services (collectively, the “Service”).
By using the Service, you consent to the data practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Service.
2. Information We Collect
Account Information. When you register, we collect your email address and password (stored as a secure hash). You may optionally link your Telegram account for notifications and support. If you register via Google OAuth, we receive your email and public profile name from Google.
Quick Registration. We offer an instant registration option where a random username and password are generated for you. In this case, we store these credentials to enable account recovery through our support team if you lose access.
Payment Information. We accept payments in cryptocurrency. All transactions are processed by a third-party payment provider (acquirer). We do not store, process, or have access to your wallet private keys or full transaction details beyond what is necessary to confirm payment receipt and match it to your account.
Usage Data. We collect traffic consumption data (megabytes/gigabytes used) for billing accuracy and service delivery. This data is necessary to calculate your balance and provide correct invoicing.
Communications. If you contact us via email or Telegram, we retain records of that correspondence to provide support and improve the Service.
3. Information We Do NOT Collect
Soxway is designed with a privacy-first approach:
- We do not log your IP address when you use our proxy network;
- We do not inspect, store, or analyze the content of traffic routed through our proxies;
- We do not require identity verification (KYC) to create an account or use the Service;
- We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes.
4. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information to:
- Provide, operate, and maintain the Service;
