Quick answer
Which records does Copperstrait hold on its customers?
No logs: no connection or traffic records, no visitor or customer IP address, and no note of how you found the site beyond a referral code if your link had one. What we hold is what billing and running your server need: the account number, and an email if you add one; every top-up and order (amount, coin, network, transaction ID, date); and for each server its name, plan, term, city, system, SSH public key, IP addresses and dates, plus the temporary root password we set when no key was given, which is useless once you change it. The datacenter’s network equipment is not ours to control. Records leave our hands only on the order of a Panamanian court. An email address appears on the account only when you choose to add it. Neither the site nor the dashboard uses cookies, analytics or ads, and identity is never checked.
1. Who decides how your data is used?
DomaineGoat LLC, a limited liability company registered in Panama, operates Copperstrait and is responsible for the data described here. It is the same company that sells you the server under the terms of service. Privacy questions go to [email protected].
2. What does "no logs" mean here?
We keep no logs: no record of connections or traffic and no IP address of a visitor or customer, on the website, in the dashboard or on any server.
Like any website, our servers see your IP address when your browser sends a request. That address serves to send the reply and, held only in memory, to throttle an address that sends too many requests. No disk or log ever receives it.
Each server stands in a datacenter in Hong Kong, Singapore or Tokyo. That datacenter runs its own network equipment, which we do not control and which follows the law of its place. The page on what Hong Kong's PDPO requires from hosting providers covers one of those laws.
3. Which records do we hold, and why?
Every record below exists because a server cannot be billed, prepared or renewed without it. The last column says where it comes from.
| Record | Purpose | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Account number | Signing in; it ties your balance, orders and servers together | Generated when the account is created |
| Email address, only if you add one | Sending you a lost account number | You, if you choose |
| Per top-up: amount, coin, network, date and transaction ID (TXID) | Finding the payment on the blockchain before crediting it | The blockchain and your transfer |
| Orders and balance movements | Charging terms, renewals and credits | Your orders |
| Per server: name, plan, term, city, system, IP addresses, and the dates it was ordered, delivered, renewed, suspended or cancelled | Building the server, then billing and renewing it | Your order and the team's handling of it |
| SSH public key, when supplied | Placed in root's authorized keys at delivery and after each reinstall; password logins remain disabled | Pasted by you at checkout |
| Temporary root password, only for a server ordered without a key | Your first login; it stops working once you change it with passwd | Set by the team during preparation |
| Referral code, only if your link carried one | Sent with a top-up to show which link an order came from | The link you followed |
| Dashboard language | Sent with a top-up so the team can reply in your language | Your choice in the dashboard |
| Support emails | Answering you, including RAID and reinstall requests | Messages you send |
4. What do we never ask for?
- No KYC: you upload no ID, no selfie and no documents, and give no card or phone number.
- Your name, postal address or date of birth: no form on the site has a field for them.
- Card or bank details, because payment is in crypto only.
- Any secret by email: no private SSH key, no root password, no account number. Nobody from our team will ever ask for your account number, your root password or your private SSH key, by email or in a chat.
5. What do cookies and your browser store?
No cookie is set by the site or the dashboard. There is no analytics, ad or tracking script, and fonts load from our own server.
A few features save small entries in your browser's storage. Each one stays on your device until it expires or you clear it, unless the last column says it is sent.
| Item | Where | What it holds | Sent to Copperstrait? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Site language | Website | Whichever language you chose in the menu | No |
| Sign-in session | Dashboard | A token that holds your sign-in until you log out | Yes: every dashboard call includes your account number, encrypted by HTTPS |
| Local copy of your account | Dashboard | Your account number, email if any and language. Also the top-ups you opened, each with status, amount, coin, network, address and reference, so a reload loses nothing | We already hold it |
| Unacknowledged top-ups | Dashboard | Top-ups our server has not yet confirmed receiving, sent again until it does | Yes, until acknowledged |
| New account number | Dashboard, current tab only | Kept until you confirm you have saved it | No |
| Dashboard language | Dashboard | Display language of the dashboard | No |
If others use the same computer, log out and erase this site's storage afterwards.
Paying in BTC, ETH, SOL or LTC needs a dollar rate, which the payment page fetches from a public price service. It asks Coinbase first, and CoinGecko if Coinbase does not answer. Your browser makes that request itself, with no cookie, referrer or account detail. The service still learns your IP address, like every site you open. USDT and USDC are valued at exactly one dollar, so paying with them triggers no such request.
6. What do public blockchains reveal?
Every crypto payment is recorded on a public blockchain. Its amount, timestamp and sending and receiving addresses are visible to anyone. So the TXID of a top-up connects it to everything the paying wallet has done before. Every incoming payment is screened against public sanctions lists of blockchain addresses; payments from a listed address are not credited. No bank or card network takes part in a payment. The page on Asian hosts that accept Bitcoin or USDT compares how other hosts take crypto.
7. What happens if I add an email address?
No feature needs an email. Your account number is the key to your account, so store it well. If you add an email it can be recovered; if you do not, a lost number is gone for good. If one is on file, the dashboard's recovery page mails the account number there. Emails you send to support are stored with their sender address, so the conversation can continue.
8. How are records used, and who receives them?
We use these records for five jobs: the account, server preparation and renewal, crediting payments, support, and abuse reports. No record is sold or used for ads.
Records leave our hands only on the order of a Panamanian court. A request resting on another country's law receives nothing from us. The datacenter's own equipment, in the city of your server, falls outside this rule.
9. How long are disks and browser items kept?
- Server disks: after a term ends without renewal, the disks survive 7 days and are then erased. Cancelling or reinstalling erases them at once.
- Browser items: they stay until you sign out or clear them (section 5).
10. What choices do I have?
You can use Copperstrait without any email address. You can cancel a server from the dashboard at any time, which wipes its disks. To ask about your account's records, email [email protected] with an order reference (ORD-…), not your account number. The Copperstrait pricing page shows the plan details an order is built from.
11. How do I keep my account secure?
Your account number acts as login and password at once, so a password manager is the place for it. Root over SSH from the first minute: add a public key at checkout and password login stays disabled, or leave it out and a temporary root password comes with the server, to be changed when you first log in. Keep the private half of your SSH key on your own machine; no one at Copperstrait needs it. The page on renting a server in Asia without ID checks lists what an order requires and what it never does.
12. Do you hold records about minors?
Accounts are open to adults of 18 and over. We do not knowingly keep records about anyone younger.
