Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information Paperex (paper-ex.com) processes when you use the site, and your choices. Paperex is a free, educational crypto trading simulator. It uses virtual money only — no real funds, deposits or withdrawals are involved.

Who we are

Paperex is an independent educational project. It is not a real exchange and is not affiliated with any exchange or broker. Market data shown is public data used for learning purposes.

Information we process

• No account required. You can use Paperex without signing up. A demo identity is created automatically so your virtual balances and orders persist for your session; this is not linked to a real-world identity.
• Technical data. Like most websites, our servers and our network provider (Cloudflare) process standard request data such as IP address, browser type and timestamps to deliver and secure the service.
• Local storage. We may store preferences (such as language and your demo session) in your browser's local storage so the app works smoothly.

Cookies, advertising & analytics

Paperex may display ads from third-party advertising partners and may use analytics to understand usage. These third parties may set cookies or use similar technologies to measure performance and, where applicable, show relevant ads. Third-party partners are responsible for their own data practices under their own privacy policies.

Depending on your region, you may be asked for consent before non-essential cookies are set, and you can manage or block cookies in your browser settings. Where required, advertising partners provide controls for personalised advertising.

Affiliate links

Some outbound links (for example to cryptocurrency exchanges) are affiliate or referral links. If you sign up or trade through them, Paperex may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. These links are labelled as advertising or partner content.

Data sharing

We do not sell personal information. Data is processed only by the service providers needed to run the site (such as hosting, CDN/security and, where used, advertising and analytics partners).

Children

Paperex is intended for a general adult audience interested in learning about markets. It is not directed at children.

Your choices

• Clear your browser's local storage to reset your demo session and preferences.
• Manage or block cookies via your browser settings.
• Use browser or extension controls to limit ad tracking where available.

Changes

We may update this policy as the service evolves. Material changes will be reflected on this page.
