LOGGING POLICY

We keep NO logs of the ASB daemon. Instead, we run separate instances - one for the clear net, lokinet, and the other over tor - in a console window on various alternating servers. This allows us to constantly monitor active swaps right as they are being conducted. It also ensures that there is no paper trail for swap clients on our end. It creates a little more work for us, but ensures the privacy of clients 10x fold. No IP address of any kind are logged by us. We also use a reverse proxy for clearnet so the direct connection to our servers cannot be established. 

NOTE: In lieu of recent scammers contacting is via BitMessage and Session, we do keep an offline record of the following information: BTC RCVD, XMR SENT, BTC PRICE, XMR PRICE, TIMESTAMP, SWAPID. You'll notice no detailing information is saved by our offline records. We keep these so we can verify with any party that claims they have made a swap with our service. The extensive details are kept in the ASB database that is coded into the atomic swap software by Comit-Network. More on how we secure that below.

ASB DATABASE

With the release of asb 0.9.0 details of each swap are contained in an SQLite database on the server. Because this contains sensitive information, such as Bitcoin and Monero addressses along with other peer information, we store the database on an encrypted LUKS image. This protects users against any offline access to the filesystem. It also protects us as well because there is information about our process in the database. One key thing to note is that the database does not contain IP addresses currently. We hope there will not be implementation of that information in future releases. It is worth mentioning that we host our services dynamically for better security. Rotating these services provides an extra layer for you and us. 

We do publish our successful swaps here on this page, but we obscure the swap ID on this site as seen below.
