How Vanish protects you
Vanish is built from the ground up with privacy as the core principle — not an afterthought.
Zero data collection
Vanish does not collect, store, or sell any personal data. We never ask for your name, address, phone number, email, or any form of ID. The only information associated with your account is your username and hashed password.
No KYC
Traditional financial services require identity verification (KYC). Vanish requires none. There are no verification calls, no document uploads, no selfies.
Secure authentication
- Passwords are hashed using bcrypt — never stored in plain text
- Sessions use JWT tokens stored in httpOnly cookies — inaccessible to JavaScript
- 2FA via TOTP adds a second layer of protection
- Rate limiting prevents brute force attacks on login
Seed phrase recovery
Your account recovery is controlled entirely by your seed phrase — a 12-word phrase only you have. Vanish never stores it. Not even Vanish can access your account without it.
💡For maximum privacy use Monero (XMR) for deposits — it has built-in transaction privacy that makes tracing deposits significantly harder.
