Privacy Policy
http://hn2paw7w627n5bro3zirrhb5bchugcjmm2mvxggnnlxqjkhhwzolbdid.onionThis independent informational resource maintains a strict zero-log policy regarding visitor activity. While we document verified onion mirrors for WeTheNorth Market, we do not operate the marketplace itself, nor do we collect personally identifiable information beyond transient server access logs required for operational security. Last updated: September 2026.
Data Collected
This directory records only the minimal technical metadata necessary to maintain service availability and mitigate abuse. Server access logs capture the following transient data for each request: the visitor's IP address (immediately anonymized via a one-way hash function), user-agent string, HTTP referrer header (if present), requested resource path, and UTC timestamp. No persistent tracking mechanisms—such as advertising pixels, third-party analytics scripts, or session cookies—are deployed on this domain.
User-submitted content (e.g., comments or verification requests) is stored solely for the purpose of fulfilling the requested service. Such submissions are retained until the user explicitly requests removal or the service ceases operation. Search queries entered into the site's search functionality are logged for no longer than 30 days to identify and address potential abuse patterns, after which they are permanently purged from all systems.
Retention Periods
Server Logs
Access logs are retained for a maximum of 30 days before automatic deletion. This retention period aligns with the operational requirements of monitoring for distributed denial-of-service attacks and other malicious activity targeting the directory infrastructure. Log data is never aggregated or analyzed for behavioral profiling purposes.
User Submissions
Comments, verification requests, and other user-generated content remain stored until the user requests deletion or the service is discontinued. No backups of user-submitted data are retained beyond the primary operational database, and all deletion requests are processed within 72 hours of receipt.
Third-Party Sharing
This directory does not share, sell, or otherwise disclose visitor data to any third parties. All data collected remains under the exclusive control of the directory operators and is used solely for the purposes described in this policy.
In the event of a lawful request from competent authorities (e.g., a subpoena or court entry), the directory may be compelled to disclose specific log data. Such disclosures are limited to the minimum information necessary to comply with the legal requirement and are documented in accordance with applicable transparency obligations. No voluntary data sharing agreements exist with any third-party entities, including law enforcement agencies, advertising networks, or data brokers.
Cookies
This directory employs only session-based cookies for the sole purpose of maintaining user session state during navigation. No persistent cookies, advertising cookies, or third-party tracking cookies are utilized. The session cookie contains no personally identifiable information and is automatically deleted when the user closes their browser or terminates the session.
Visitors who disable cookies in their browser will experience reduced functionality, particularly with regard to the mirror verification tool and comment submission forms. However, all core directory content—including verified onion mirrors for WeTheNorth Market—remains accessible without cookies enabled.
Visitor Rights
Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), visitors retain the right to access, correct, or delete any personal data collected by this directory. Requests for data access or deletion may be submitted via email to [email protected] or through the PGP-encrypted contact form available on the Contact Support page. All requests are processed within 30 days of receipt, and no fees are charged for exercising these rights.
Visitors may also object to the processing of their data for specific purposes, such as the logging of search queries. Such objections will be honored unless the directory demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override the visitor's interests, rights, and freedoms.
Third-Party Content
This directory references WeTheNorth Market and other darknet marketplaces solely for informational purposes, in accordance with the nominative fair use doctrine (17 U.S.C. § 107). All trademarks, service marks, and trade names mentioned on this site remain the property of their respective owners. No affiliation, endorsement, or partnership exists between this directory and any referenced marketplace.
External links to third-party resources (e.g., Tor Project, Ahmia, Riseup) are provided for educational purposes only. The directory operators do not control the content or privacy practices of these external sites and disclaim all liability for any actions taken by visitors on such platforms.
Mirror Authenticity Check
This directory provides a cryptographic verification tool to confirm whether a given .onion address is a legitimate mirror of WeTheNorth Market. The tool compares the PGP signature of the submitted address against the market's canonical signing key, which is publicly available and independently verified by multiple community sources. This process ensures that visitors can distinguish authentic mirrors from phishing clones without exposing themselves to unnecessary risk.
