What it is

Uniswap Labs acknowledges it cannot edit or delete information stored on a blockchain, including your wallet address and transaction history, even if you request erasure under GDPR or CCPA.

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)

This provision clarifies the scope and limits of Uniswap's data management responsibilities under the privacy policy. It distinguishes between data Uniswap controls (collected through its interface) and immutable data recorded on public blockchains, which cannot be modified regardless of user requests or privacy policy requirements.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

If you exercise your right to be forgotten under GDPR, Uniswap Labs cannot comply with respect to on-chain data. Your full transaction history associated with your wallet address remains permanently public.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (Compliance & governance intelligence)

This provision creates a material tension with GDPR Article 17 (right to erasure). Legal teams advising EU-facing crypto platforms should assess whether the immutability of blockchain data satisfies the Article 17(3) exemptions and whether adequate disclosures have been made to data subjects at point of collection.
