This provision establishes the operational data collection framework for the default RPC service pathway. It creates transparency regarding which entity receives transaction-related identifiers and establishes the corporate relationship between the service provider and the data collector, which affects the institutional structure of data handling.
Users operating MetaMask with the default Infura RPC configuration have their IP address and wallet address transmitted to and retained by Infura upon each transaction submission.
