Privacy-as-a-Proxy // Zero Retention

01 // The Proxy Layer

X402 acts as an orchestration proxy. Upstream providers (e.g., Hetzner) only see our infrastructure account. Your identity—verified only via wallet signature—remains isolated from the hardware host.

02 // Cryptographic Identity

No emails. No passwords. No KYC. Your presence in the X402 ecosystem is defined entirely by your EVM wallet address. We store no personal metadata beyond the necessary mapping of wallet-to-instance for lease management.

03 // Automated Destruction

Forensic hygiene is our core protocol. When a lease expires, our "Reaper" initiates an immediate API termination request to the upstream provider. Once the provider confirms deletion, the instance and its transient disks are purged from the physical data center.
