Privacy Questions

Are my transactions private?

Orchard and Ironwood shielded transactions hide amount, sender, and receiver on the public ledger. NozyWallet does not add transparent leakage by design. Migration (Orchard → Ironwood turnstile) is different: amounts are public by design — see Why Ironwood?.

Does NozyWallet phone home?

No telemetry that exfiltrates addresses, amounts, or seed by default project policy. Your RPC node still sees query/broadcast metadata.

Can I use a public RPC?

You can point zebra_url at a trusted VPS. Operator sees IP and timing — use Tor/VPN or own node for stronger metadata privacy.

Address reuse?

Reusing one unified address works but may reduce unlinkability. Generate fresh receive addresses when privacy matters.

Viewing keys?

Advanced / future documentation — default UI is spend/receive focused, not full viewing-key export.

Zcash vs Monero privacy model?

Nozy targets Monero-like default privacy using Zcash Orchard / Ironwood — see Privacy model.
