As a cybersecurity company, we believe privacy should come built-in, not as a bonus feature. To prove it, we’ve put our no-tracking claims through independent verification. Again. It’s not a one-time claim; it’s an ongoing promise. Want to know more details? Keep on reading!
The importance of independent verification
Our no-logs assurance scope
The recent assurance provided by KPMG delved into our Privacy Policy and internal processes. Here’s a detailed look at what KPMG did:
- Confirmed that Surfshark’s VPN servers do not collect logs of user activity after login, including browsing history, traffic destination, data content, or connection logs;
- Verified that temporary login data is stored only briefly and deleted within a defined timeframe;
- Assessed that usage analytics data collection aligns with Surfshark’s Privacy Policy;
- Evaluated security measures protecting customers from potential compromises of third-party services involved in server infrastructure;
- Reviewed change management procedures to ensure system updates and configuration changes are properly authorized and documented without compromising security;
- Inspected how privileged user access is managed and logged to ensure compliance with internal security policies.
This independent assessment confirms our compliance with our Privacy Policy. The detailed report (ISAE 3000) is available via this link.
