Not Financial or Legal Advice

TrustSniffer provides blockchain analytics, risk scores, and threat intelligence on a purely informational basis. Our verdicts, risk bands, taint scores, and entity classifications do not constitute financial, investment, legal, or compliance advice.

You should not rely solely on TrustSniffer outputs to make decisions regarding transactions, counterparty relationships, or regulatory obligations. Always consult qualified legal and compliance professionals before acting on any risk intelligence.

Accuracy of Information

Our risk engine operates on deterministic, publicly available blockchain data (transaction records, smart contract state, event logs). On-chain data processed by TrustSniffer is mathematically verifiable and immutable.

However, off-chain attribution — including entity labels, exchange identification, mixer classification, and sanctions list matching — is inherently probabilistic. We do not guarantee 100% accuracy of entity classifications or risk verdicts. Labels may be outdated, incomplete, or disputed.

Risk scores are computed using proprietary algorithms (noisy-OR probability propagation, graph-based taint decay) that represent our best assessment based on available evidence. Scores may change as new data becomes available.

Third-Party Data & Infrastructure

TrustSniffer relies on external infrastructure and data sources that are outside our direct control, including but not limited to:

  • Blockchain RPC nodes (Alchemy, Infura, public endpoints) for transaction and state data.
  • OSINT databases and publicly maintained sanctions lists (OFAC SDN, EU Consolidated, UN Security Council).
  • Third-party archive services (Wayback Machine) for historical web analysis.
  • DNS resolvers and certificate transparency logs.

We cannot guarantee the availability, accuracy, or timeliness of data provided by these external sources. Temporary RPC outages, delayed sanctions list updates, or DNS propagation delays may affect the completeness of our analysis.

Limitation of Liability — False Positives & Negatives

Blockchain risk analysis is inherently uncertain. TrustSniffer expressly disclaims liability for:

  • False Positives: If you block, freeze, or reject a legitimate transaction or counterparty based on a TrustSniffer verdict that later proves incorrect, TrustSniffer bears no liability for the resulting commercial loss, customer harm, or regulatory consequence.
  • False Negatives: If you approve a transaction or counterparty that TrustSniffer classified as low-risk, but which subsequently proves to be associated with illicit activity, TrustSniffer bears no liability for resulting losses, regulatory fines, or reputational damage.

You are solely responsible for your compliance decisions. TrustSniffer is a supplementary intelligence tool — not a substitute for your own due diligence, transaction monitoring systems, or compliance program.

No Warranty

The TrustSniffer platform, API, and all associated outputs are provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
