Privacy Policy.

B-ank works by appointment and in confidence. This policy explains what we collect when you use this site, why we collect it, and what we will and will not do with it.

Effective September 1, 2026 | Last Updated September 1, 2026

01 Who we are.

This site, b-ank.us, is operated by BITCOIN ANK LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Florida, which does business as B-ank. In this policy, “B-ank”, “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to BITCOIN ANK LLC.

02 What we collect.

We collect only what we need in order to respond to you and to keep the site working. We do not require you to create an account, and we do not ask for financial information through this website.

Information you give us. When you submit the consultation request form, we collect:

  • Your name.
  • Your email address.
  • Your telephone number, if you choose to provide it — this field is optional.
  • Whether you are enquiring as an individual, a business, or an institution.
  • Your preferred consultation format.
  • Whatever you choose to tell us in the free-text field describing what you would like help with.
  • If you arrived at the form from a particular service page, a record of which service prompted the enquiry.

Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our hosting infrastructure records standard technical information when a page is requested: IP address, browser type and version, device type, the pages requested, and the date and time. This is used for security, diagnostics, and understanding aggregate traffic patterns.

Analytics. We use Google Analytics to understand how the site is used in aggregate — which briefings are read, how visitors arrive, where they leave. Google Analytics sets cookies and processes data on our behalf. We have configured it for aggregate reporting and we do not use it to build advertising profiles of individual visitors.

03 Why we collect it.

We use the information you provide for the following purposes and no others:

  • To respond to your enquiry and arrange a consultation.
  • To prepare for that consultation, so the conversation is useful to you.
  • To send the follow-up correspondence that precedes a consultation.
  • To maintain our own business records of who we have spoken with.
  • To keep the site secure and functioning.

We do not use your information to build a profile of you, to target advertising, or for any purpose you would not reasonably expect from the act of requesting a consultation.

04 What we do not do.

These commitments are stated plainly because the practice depends on them:

  • We do not sell your personal information. We have never done so and we do not intend to.
  • We do not share your personal information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
  • We do not trade, rent, or licence enquiry data to anyone.
  • We do not ask for, and you should never send us, private keys, seed phrases, recovery words, wallet passphrases, or the contents of any hardware wallet backup. No legitimate advisor will ever ask you for these. If you receive a message purporting to be from B-ank that asks for any of them, it is not from us.

05 Who else handles your information.

We use a small number of service providers to operate the site and our correspondence. Each processes information only as needed to provide its service to us:

  • Our website hosting provider, which stores the site and its server logs.
  • Our email provider, through which we correspond with you.
  • Google Analytics, for aggregate traffic measurement.
  • The form-handling service that delivers consultation requests to us.

We may also disclose information where we are required to do so by law, by court order, or by a governmental authority with jurisdiction; or where necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

06 Cookies and tracking.

This site uses cookies for two purposes only: to make the site function correctly, and for the aggregate analytics described above. We do not use advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or cross-site tracking.

You can set your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when one is set. The site will continue to work with analytics cookies disabled.

Do Not Track. Some browsers transmit a “Do Not Track” signal. There is no industry consensus on how such signals should be honoured. We do not currently respond to Do Not Track signals, and we disclose that here because California law requires the disclosure. We do not engage in the cross-site behavioural tracking that Do Not Track was designed to prevent.

07 How long we keep it.

Consultation enquiries are retained for as long as we may reasonably need them for the business relationship, and thereafter as our records and any legal obligations require. Server logs are retained for a short operational period. Aggregate analytics data is retained according to the settings we have configured with Google.

You may ask us to delete your information sooner. See Your rights, below.

08 Security.

The site is served over HTTPS, and enquiry data is transmitted encrypted. We limit access to enquiry information to those within the practice who need it. We keep the number of systems holding your information deliberately small.

No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, and we do not claim otherwise. If a breach affecting your personal information occurs, we will notify you as required by Florida’s breach notification law and by any other law that applies to you.

09 Your rights.

Whatever state you live in, you may ask us to:

  • Tell you what personal information we hold about you.
  • Correct information that is inaccurate.
  • Delete information we hold about you.
  • Provide a copy of the information you gave us.
  • Stop contacting you.

To exercise any of these, email us at the address given at the end of this policy, or write to us at our business address. We will respond within 45 days. If we cannot do what you have asked, we will tell you why, and you may ask us to reconsider.

We will not treat you differently for exercising any of these rights.

California residents. California’s “Shine the Light” law entitles you to request details of personal information disclosed to third parties for their own direct marketing purposes. We make no such disclosures, so there is nothing to report, but you are entitled to ask and to receive that answer.

10 Children.

This site is intended for adults evaluating Bitcoin in a professional or personal financial capacity. It is not directed to children, we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13, and if we learn that we have done so we will delete it. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us.

11 Changes to this policy.

If we change this policy we will update the effective date at the top and post the revised policy here. If a change materially affects how we handle information you have already given us, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you directly.
