What Data Do We Actually See?

We believe in complete honesty. Here’s the exact list of information that gets collected automatically when you buy or sell crypto — stuff you don’t type in yourself.

When you use AceChange to buy crypto anonymously or sell crypto without verification, certain technical data is collected automatically. This isn’t information you provide (like email or wallet address) — it’s data your browser and device send with every visit.

AceSwap — Anonymous Crypto Exchange

Automatically collected data:

  • IP Address
    Your public IP address used to connect to the internet. Used for approximate location and security purposes.
  • Browser Type & Version
    For example Chrome 120, Firefox 121, Safari 17. Helps optimize page display.
  • Operating System
    Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android — basic device information.
  • Timezone
    Your device’s timezone setting.
  • Browser Language
    Preferred language set in your browser (e.g. en-US, de-DE).
  • Transaction Timestamp
    Exact time when the swap was created and completed.
  • Referrer URL
    Which website you came from (where you clicked the link).

⚡ What does this mean?

No registration, no email required for swaps. IP address and basic device info are collected automatically — but there’s a way around it. Below you’ll find a complete guide on how to buy crypto completely anonymously, without us seeing any of your real data.

Buy & Sell Crypto with Fiat

Automatically collected data:

  • IP Address
    Used for transaction geolocation and security checks.
  • Browser Type & Version
    Information about the browser you’re using.
  • Device Type & Operating System
    Whether you’re on mobile, tablet, or desktop, and which system you’re running.
  • Timezone & Settings
    Local device settings.
  • Clickstream Data
    Which pages you visited, how long you stayed, what you clicked.
  • Browser Plugins
    List of extensions and plugins installed in your browser.

ℹ️ Why is more data collected for fiat purchases?

When paying with card or bank transfer, additional technical data is automatically collected — that’s how payment systems work. This data is processed by the payment gateway, not us.

Good news: Below on this page you’ll find the exact steps to protect your privacy. Follow them and you’ll minimize your digital footprint to the absolute minimum.

Google Analytics

📊 Why do we use Google Analytics?

Like any professional website, we need to understand how visitors use our platform — which features are popular, where people run into issues, where they’re coming from. This data helps us improve our services and user experience. Below you’ll learn exactly what Google Analytics collects and how to effectively block it if you prefer.

Automatically collected data:

  • Approximate Geographic Location
    Country, region, city — derived from IP address. The IP address itself is not stored, only used to determine location and then discarded.
  • Device Information
    Device type (mobile/desktop), screen resolution, operating system.
  • On-site Behavior
    Which pages you visited, how long you stayed, where you came from.
  • Demographic Data (aggregated)
    Age, gender, interests — only if you have personalized ads enabled in your browser.

🔒 Important about IP addresses

Google Analytics 4 (which we use) does not log or store IP addresses. The IP is only used to determine your approximate location and then immediately discarded — it’s never written to disk.

🛡️ How to block it?

If you don’t want Google Analytics tracking your activity, you have several options:

• Brave Browser — blocks trackers automatically
• uBlock Origin — extension for blocking analytics
• Google Analytics Opt-out — official add-on from Google
• Dedicated device — most effective solution (more below)

Summary

What we definitely DON’T see (and don’t want to):

❌ Your device’s MAC address
❌ Contents of your hard drive or files
❌ Your passwords or login credentials
❌ Communication in other apps
❌ GPS location (only approximate from IP)

What we do see:

✅ IP address (during swaps and purchases)
✅ Basic browser and device info
✅ On-site behavior
✅ Transaction data (amounts, wallet addresses, timestamps)

💡 How to stay anonymous

We recommend setting up a dedicated device (smartphone or computer) used exclusively for transactions and private communication.

Anonymization technologies are often detectable and can paradoxically draw attention to you — service providers and analytics systems know when you’re using them. A clean dedicated device with regular internet connection is less suspicious and more practical.
