What it is

For EU users, Uniswap claims multiple legal reasons to process your data — including consent, contractual necessity, legal compliance, and 'legitimate interests' — and you have rights to access, correct, delete, and move your data.

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

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Relying on 'legitimate interests' as a catch-all legal basis is frequently challenged by European regulators, and the policy does not specify which basis applies to which processing activity, making it difficult to exercise your rights or challenge processing you disagree with.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

EU users nominally have rights to access, correct, delete, and port their data, but the policy's vague multi-basis approach and the blockchain deletion impossibility substantially limit the practical exercise of these rights.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
