1. Information We Collect
When you use BoltNames, we collect information you provide directly: your name, email address, and the domain name you wish to acquire. We also collect payment information, which is processed securely by our payment provider (Stripe); we do not store your full card details. We may also collect basic usage data such as page views and interaction events to improve the service.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use your information to provide and operate the brokerage service, communicate with you about your request, send updates on negotiation progress, and respond to your inquiries. With your consent, we may also send occasional newsletters about domain industry news and service updates. We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties.
3. Data Sharing
We may share your information with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our platform (such as payment processors and hosting providers). These parties are contractually required to keep your data confidential. We may also disclose information when required by law or to protect our legal rights. We will never share your identity with a domain seller without your explicit permission.

Our platform uses cookies and similar technologies to maintain session state, keep you logged in, and analyze usage patterns. Essential cookies are necessary for the site to function and cannot be disabled. With your consent, we also use optional analytics cookies to understand how the site is used and improve it over time. You can accept or reject these optional cookies via the cookie banner shown on your first visit, and you can change your choice at any time by clearing your browser storage.

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of internet transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
