Privacy Policy
Last Updated: October 6, 2026
Privacy First
LightningFaucet is built to work with as little personal information as possible. We do not require KYC, your real name, or other mandatory personal details just to use the site.
- No mandatory KYC
- No mandatory real-name signup
- No mandatory phone number or physical address
- Minimal data collection to keep the service working and secure
1. What We Collect
We collect a small amount of data needed to run the site, protect accounts, and process Lightning activity.
- Email address: Used when a feature asks for it, such as free spin verification, account recovery options, or optional updates.
- Lightning login key: If you use LNURL-auth, we store the public linking key needed to recognize your account.
- Account and gameplay data: Balances, deposits, withdrawals, bets, rewards, and feature activity.
- Technical data: IP address, browser/device details, session identifiers, and security logs used for fraud prevention, abuse prevention, and troubleshooting.
- Site usage data: Pages viewed and product interactions so we can understand performance and improve the experience.
2. What We Do Not Collect
We do not ask for sensitive identity information unless a feature or legal requirement makes it necessary in the future.
- Government ID documents
- Mandatory legal name collection
- Mandatory home address
- Mandatory phone number
- Traditional banking or card details for standard Lightning use
3. How We Use Data
We use collected data to operate the site, keep accounts secure, and improve the product.
- Run faucets, games, wallets, payments, and related account features
- Detect fraud, multi-account abuse, chargeback-style abuse, and security threats
- Support withdrawals, deposits, and transaction history
- Send service emails you request or that are required for account or feature operation
- Measure site health, product usage, and performance
- Comply with legal obligations when required
4. Cookies, Local Storage, and Analytics
We use a small set of browser technologies to make the site function.
- Cookies and session storage: Used for authentication, security, and basic site behavior.
- Local storage: Used for session state, UI preferences, cached values, and some gameplay-related settings.
- Analytics: We use site analytics tools to understand visits, page usage, and overall product performance.
5. Sharing
We do not sell your personal information.
We may share limited data only when needed to operate the service, investigate abuse, or comply with the law.
- Hosting, infrastructure, analytics, and email providers acting on our behalf
- Offer providers, when you use the offers feature (see section 6)
- Security or fraud investigations
- Legal requests, court orders, or other valid compliance obligations
- A business transfer if the service is merged, acquired, or sold
6. Offer Providers
Our offers page lists tasks from third-party offer providers: AdGem (operated by AdAction Interactive), Lootably, and ayeT Studios. When you use the offers feature, these providers receive the data needed to track your offers, credit your rewards, and prevent fraud.
- Your Lightning Faucet user ID: Your numeric account ID is passed to the provider as your player or user ID so a completed offer can be matched to your account. We do not send your email address or name.
- IP address and device or browser details: When you open an offer, your browser connects directly to the provider, which receives your IP address and user agent (browser and device information).
- Country: Offers depend on where you are. For ayeT Studios, our servers also send your IP address and country when loading the offer list so that only offers available in your region are shown.
- Completion records: When you complete an offer, the provider tells us which account and offer it was for and the reward amount, and may include the IP address and country it recorded. We use this to credit rewards and to detect fraud or reversed offers.
Providers and the advertisers behind each offer may also collect information directly while you complete an offer, such as through surveys, app installs, or sign-up forms. That collection is governed by their own privacy policies, not this one:
7. Retention
We keep data only as long as we reasonably need it for operations, security, records, and legal obligations.
- Active account data is retained while the account remains in use
- Payment and gameplay records may be retained for audit, dispute, and security reasons
- Security logs may be kept to detect repeated abuse patterns
- Inactive or zero-balance accounts may be purged after a reasonable period
8. Security
We use technical and operational safeguards intended to protect account and transaction data. No internet service can promise perfect security, but we work to minimize unnecessary data exposure and restrict access where possible.
9. Your Choices
You can contact us to ask questions about your data or request account-related help. Because the platform is pseudonymous, we may ask you to prove account ownership before acting on requests.
10. Children
The service is not intended for minors. If we learn that a minor has provided personal information, we will take reasonable steps to remove it.
11. Changes
We may update this policy as the product evolves. When we do, we will update the date on this page. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised policy.
12. Contact
If you have questions about privacy or data handling, please contact us.
