Effective Date: 5 October 2025
Last Updated: 5 October 2025

At Swapup.digital, the security of our users’ crypto and fiat wallets is our highest priority. This Security Policy outlines the measures we take to protect your funds, personal data, and transaction integrity across our platform.

By using Swapup.digital, you acknowledge and agree to the security measures and responsibilities described in this policy.


1. Purpose and Scope

This policy defines how Swapup.digital secures user funds, wallets, and transaction data. It applies to:

  • All registered users of Swapup.digital

  • Digital (crypto) wallets and fiat currency accounts

  • Systems and networks operated by Swapup.digital


2. Our Security Principles

We adhere to the following core security principles:

  • Confidentiality: User data and transactions are protected from unauthorized access.

  • Integrity: All financial and blockchain transactions are verified and tamper-proof.

  • Availability: Our systems are designed for continuous uptime, redundancy, and resilience.

  • Transparency: We clearly communicate all major security events and system updates to our users.


3. Crypto Wallet Security

We employ a multi-layered security architecture for all cryptocurrency operations:

3.1. Cold & Hot Wallet Segregation

  • 98% of crypto assets are stored in cold wallets (offline), completely isolated from the internet.

  • A small percentage is held in hot wallets to facilitate instant withdrawals and transactions.

  • Private keys for cold wallets are generated and stored in hardware-secured environments.

3.2. Private Key Management

  • Private keys are encrypted using AES-256 encryption and stored in Hardware Security Modules (HSMs).

  • Key access is limited to authorized personnel under multi-signature (multi-sig) control.

  • All key operations require multi-party authorization to prevent internal misuse.

3.3. Blockchain Monitoring & Auditing

  • Real-time blockchain monitoring detects suspicious transactions or address anomalies.

  • Regular third-party security audits and penetration tests are conducted.

  • Blockchain logs are immutable and retained for forensic review.


4. Fiat Wallet & Banking Security

For fiat (traditional currency) funds, Swapup.digital partners only with regulated banking institutions that meet AML and CTF (Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing) standards.

4.1. Bank Account Safety

  • Fiat funds are held in segregated client accounts with trusted banks in the United Arab Emirates.

  • User balances are never co-mingled with operational funds.

  • All withdrawals undergo multi-layer verification and anti-fraud checks.

4.2. Payment Gateway Protection

  • All online payments are processed via PCI DSS-compliant payment gateways.

  • Transaction data is TLS 1.3 encrypted during transmission.

  • Suspicious deposits and chargeback patterns are automatically flagged for review.


5. User Account Security

To protect your personal account and wallets, we enforce strong authentication and monitoring mechanisms.

5.1. Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

  • 2FA is mandatory for logins, withdrawals, and security changes.

  • Supported options: Google Authenticator, SMS OTP, or email verification.

5.2. Device and Session Control

  • Every login session is device-verified.

  • Users can view and terminate active sessions via the dashboard.

  • Repeated failed login attempts trigger temporary account locks.

5.3. Withdrawal Protection

  • New withdrawal addresses are subject to a 24-hour security hold.

  • Users receive email confirmation links before any withdrawal is executed.


6. Data Security

6.1. Encryption Standards

  • All user data (personal, financial, and transactional) is encrypted both in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256).

  • Sensitive data (KYC documents, banking details) is stored only in encrypted form on secure servers.

6.2. Access Control

  • Internal data access is granted strictly on a need-to-know basis.

  • All administrative actions are logged and monitored.

6.3. Data Backups & Redundancy

  • Encrypted backups are maintained in multiple secure geographic locations.

  • Disaster recovery procedures ensure continuity in case of system failure.


7. User Responsibilities

Security is a shared responsibility. Users are expected to:

  • Keep passwords and 2FA devices secure.

  • Avoid sharing account credentials with anyone.

  • Regularly review account activity and report suspicious behavior.

  • Access Swapup.digital only from trusted and secure devices.
