General questions related to Camo Web Wallet

Does Camo Web Wallet collect sensitive data, or store private keys or mnemonic phrases on a centralized server?

Camo Web Wallet operates entirely on client-side processing, ensuring that all data remains within your browser and all computations are carried out locally. This architecture eliminates the need for centralized servers, safeguarding your sensitive information—such as mnemonic phrases and private keys—from collection. Consequently, the Camo Wallet team is unable to retrieve your wallet or access your assets if you lose your credentials. It is always a best practice to securely back up your mnemonic phrases and private keys.

If you haven't secured a backup of your mnemonic phrases or private keys yet, you can initiate the export process by following Export Mnemonic or Export Existing CAMO Private Account

Is it safe to clear my browser cache or delete browser data without losing my assets?

If you have backed up your mnemonic phrases or private keys (for all accounts), clearing your browser cache or deleting browser data will not result in the loss of your assets. You can establish a new Camo Web Wallet by Import Existing CAMO Wallet or by Import Existing CAMO Private Account. Then Import Private Assets or running a full synchronization of the chains and assets you've engaged with, you will regain access to your private assets.

Why don't my assets and transaction history appear after clearing browser cache or re-importing my wallet?

Due to Camo Web Wallet's exclusive reliance on client-side processing, your transaction history isn't stored on any centralized servers, significantly enhancing privacy. However, this aspect can pose challenges for users who, whether intentionally or accidentally, delete their browser data. Rest assured, your assets remain secure as long as you have backed up your mnemonic phrases or private keys.
