Konduit Privacy Policy

Last updated: 9 June 2026

Who we are

Konduit is a TCP-native VPN client developed and distributed by K-Ops Oy. Questions about this policy can be sent to: konduit@k-ops.eu

What data Konduit processes

On your device

The Konduit client stores the following data locally:

Data Purpose Where it is stored
VPN server address and port Connect to your VPN server Local config file
Peer ID and pre-shared key (PSK) Authenticate with your VPN server Local config file
Session statistics (bytes sent/received, connection state) Display connection status In-memory only, not persisted

On the VPN server

When you connect, the VPN server you connect to processes:

Data Purpose
Your IP address Route return traffic to your device
Connection timestamps Session management
Traffic volume (bytes in/out) Capacity planning and abuse prevention
Destination IP addresses of tunnelled traffic Route packets to their destination

The content of tunnelled traffic is not inspected beyond what is necessary for routing.

What we do not collect

  • Konduit does not collect analytics, crash reports, usage statistics, or any telemetry.
  • Konduit does not display advertising.
  • Konduit does not sell or share connection metadata with third parties.

Self-hosted deployments

Konduit is designed to be self-hosted. If you run your own Konduit server, all server-side data listed above stays under your control and is never transmitted to K-Ops Oy.

Data retention and deletion

All client-side data is stored in the local config file. To delete it, remove your configuration or uninstall Konduit.

Server-side connection logs are retained for a limited period for operational purposes and then deleted. The exact retention period depends on the server operator.

Security

  • All traffic between client and server is encrypted using X25519 key exchange and ChaCha20-Poly1305 AEAD.
  • The pre-shared key (PSK) is stored in the local config file with permissions restricted to the current user.
  • Stealth mode wraps the tunnel in a protocol that is indistinguishable from HTTPS, preventing deep-packet inspection from identifying Konduit traffic.

Children

Konduit is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect data from children.

GDPR (EU residents)

When using a K-Ops Oy operated server, K-Ops Oy acts as data processor for connection metadata (IP address, timestamps, traffic volume) as described above. This data is processed on the legal basis of legitimate interest (providing the VPN service). You may request deletion of your connection metadata by contacting konduit@k-ops.eu.

When using a self-hosted server, K-Ops Oy does not process any of your data.

Changes to this policy

If we update this policy, the new version will be published at this URL with an updated "Last updated" date.
