What it is

Uniswap Labs can hand over your personal data including wallet address, IP address, and transaction data to law enforcement or government agencies without necessarily notifying you.

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)

In a crypto context, disclosure of wallet address combined with IP address to law enforcement could expose your transaction history on the blockchain to investigation without a specific court order being required under the policy's own terms.

Interpretive note: The standard 'believes necessary or appropriate' may face regulatory scrutiny in EU jurisdictions where a specific legal obligation is required to justify disclosure to authorities under GDPR.
