Any transaction you make on the blockchain is permanently public and Uniswap Labs states it has no control over that on-chain data, meaning your transaction history exists independently of anything Uniswap Labs does.
This analysis describes what Uniswap's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology
This clause clarifies that privacy protections in the policy do not extend to on-chain data, which is permanently and publicly visible by anyone including data brokers, analytics firms, and regulators.
Your on-chain transaction history, including amounts traded and wallet addresses involved, is permanently public regardless of any privacy rights you exercise against Uniswap Labs, because the blockchain itself is outside the company's control.

"Please note that blockchain technology is inherently transparent and all on-chain transactions are publicly visible. Information you submit on the blockchain, including your public wallet address and transaction history, is publicly accessible and may be seen by anyone. This information is not controlled by us and we are not responsible for it.— Excerpt from Uniswap's Uniswap Privacy Policy
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: This carve-out is accurate as a technical matter but has regulatory implications under GDPR, where the combination of publicly available blockchain data with off-chain identifiers (such as IP addresses held by Uniswap Labs) may still constitute personal data processing subject to GDPR obligations. The carve-out does not relieve Uniswap Labs of responsibility for off-chain data it holds that could be used to de-anonymize on-chain activity. Relevant authorities include national DPAs and the EDPB, which has addressed blockchain and GDPR compatibility. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. While the technical accuracy of the carve-out is clear, its legal effect under GDPR is limited because Uniswap Labs holds off-chain data (IP addresses, device identifiers) that could be combined with public blockchain data to identify users. The carve-out does not eliminate data controller responsibilities for the off-chain data. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU and UK users face the greatest gap between the carve-out's implied protections and actual regulatory exposure, as GDPR may require Uniswap Labs to account for the re-identification risk created by its combination of off-chain and on-chain data. The EDPB has issued guidance relevant to blockchain data processing under GDPR. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise users or developers building on Uniswap infrastructure should note that user transaction data cannot be made private or deleted from the blockchain itself, which has implications for GDPR right-to-erasure commitments in any downstream products. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should assess whether the combination of IP address and wallet address data held by Uniswap Labs creates a re-identification risk that must be addressed in a data protection impact assessment under GDPR Article 35. The carve-out language should not be relied upon as a complete defense to GDPR obligations regarding the off-chain data set.
