Marketing contradicts its own published policies. The site states "no personal information is required" and "completely decentralized", while the privacy policy discloses collection of IP address, device type and browser data, use for responding to law enforcement requests, and identity documents demanded by processing partners. The operator is GhostSwap, LLC of Wilmington, Delaware, with two dedicated law-enforcement contact addresses. Sources: ghostswap.io/terms-of-use, ghostswap.io/privacy-policy
