Screen a payee address

Screen a payment page

A spoofed payment page hands you a brand-new address that no list has seen. So check the page itself — against ~444,000 public, auditable phishing and scam domains.

Screen a payment page

Select and right-click

Select an address or URL on any page → right-click → “Screen with OceanAlt” → the full result opens in a new tab. If it is neither, the text is carried to the checker for you to confirm — we do not guess.

Privacy: it cannot read the pages you visit

Permissions it asks for (only these three)

  • Context menu: adds “Screen with OceanAlt” on text you select
  • Local storage: remembers the last value you typed, on your device only
  • Access to oceanalt.com: to call our own public screening API

What it never asked for

  • Read and change your data on all websites
  • Inject scripts into pages or scan their content
  • Your browsing history

What our server receives when you check something, and for how long

  • Only the one address or URL you paste or right-click is sent, to perform that check.
  • As with any website, our server access log records the request, IP address and browser identifier; it rotates daily and is deleted after 30 days.
  • Usage statistics record the endpoint name, time, IP and browser identifier — not what you checked — to count usage and prevent abuse; they are deleted automatically by a daily job after 366 days.
  • The result cache stores “what this address’s verdict is”, never who asked. There is no account; we do not know who you are.
  • Nothing is sold, used for advertising, or used to judge anyone’s creditworthiness.

“No risk signal” ≠ safe: it means we found nothing in the data we hold. How deep we screen each chain is published on screening depth by chain. Full terms: privacy policy.
