I just took a look at your website (Company > About) section, and I couldn't find any information about your company. Like, where is it registered, who is behind it, whats the physical address? I personally wouldn't even consider using your service for my project without information like that publicly available.

Hello! Sorry for the late reply.
Our company is under the process of registration, it took a bit more time than we thought, but anyway it will be registered quite soon. The About section will be changed as well, we're constantly working on the development of our project, many updates are soon to come.

Hello, thank you very much!
The methods of the Wallet section are closed, so people can't get access to each others API keys, privacy is guaranteed.
What happens in case of some unexpected events like hack and if API keys and users data are exposed?
Do you have any solution or protection in case something like this happens?
Thanks in advance for answering.

We use several methods of protection, so in case of any hack the users' data won't be exposed. We can't disclose them publicly in order for this data to stay safe. If we notice the suspicious activity with an API key, it's going to be blocked until the circumstances are clarified.

What is the need of connecting a full node? I mean, do a little comparison between connecting to full node and using your service?
What data do you collect or may store? or your Privacy policy? not only IP but list of addresses

We provide a complex solution for app developers and blockchain users, it means, if you want to build your own blockchain project, you don't need to spend time and resources for launching and maintaining full cryptocurrencies' nodes yourself, you can get access to them via GetBlock, and they will be instantly connected to your business project, which facilitates all the process.

Good project. A small suggestion here. Your process to provide API Key should not be manual, like through email comunication. One should sign up and generate his/her API Key automatically. Also, it is good if you allow to test your features without any API key in the first place. That would of course be within limit and you can apply those limit through IP restriction.

Thank you for the nice words and your recommendations! We've just launched and are working on our platform, we would like to implement such a feature as soon as possible, that would be great.

You probably should upgrade your Bitcoin Core, since 0.17.1 is outdated by now and there are are some new/removed commands.

Your privacy policy says you can give our information to anymore for any reason.   

Anyone signing up should use a throw away email.

And make sure to not reveal your real IP or send any personal information through the API.
