Metamask, the well-known Ethereum wallet, has recently made updates to its privacy policy in order to provide users with enhanced transparency and control over their personal information, particularly with regards to the processing of IP addresses. In accordance with the revised policy, Metamask will only temporarily process a user’s IP address when necessary for specific services, based on the user’s individual Metamask settings. This adjustment reflects Metamask’s dedication to delivering a web3 wallet experience that prioritizes privacy. For users looking to further restrict data collection, options include utilizing virtual private networks (VPNs) and modifying their remote procedure call (RPC) endpoints as needed, including the utilization of personalized and customized RPC endpoints.
