The verifying of a contact's OMEMO keys is done through the exchange of QR codes that are scanned. In many ways it is very similar to PGP which only added encryption to the message contents of emails. It is just the nature of this system that confidentiality is only available for message contents. OMEMO adds encryption to the message contents, but the underlying system of XMPP remains unencrypted. When XMPP was first developed there was no encryption implemented in the design.
All your contacts are stored unencrypted.Some goes for the files which are uploaded encrypted. Other meta data with the message is not encrypted. Even if the messages are OMEMO encrypted it is only the message contents that are encrypted. Archiving of messages on the server is a concern.Regarding the above information, even with OMEMO enabled the following is unencrypted on the server: A correlation between your account and your payment information for longer than it is necessary to fulfil our return policy.
Or more general the times when you use our services.
Your IP address or any information that could be inferred by that address like your location. Other private data your XMPP client might upload like a list of conference bookmarks. Semi public data you are publishing for your contacts to see like your avatar or the OMEMO public keys. You decide who goes on that list and who gets deleted. A list of your contacts (Roster, Buddylist). Every file you share with a contact or a conference will be uploaded and stored for later retrieval by the recipients. You can opt-out of this by setting your server-side archiving preferences with your XMPP client. This can come in handy if you log in with a new device and want access to your message history and is also required if you want to use the OMEMO encryption with multiple devices. #Retroshare dht disabled archive#
By default we will be keeping an archive of your messages for later retrieval by yourself.

If someone sends you a message while you are offline that message will be stored until you get back online.

Your user name and hash of your password. Each XMPP server however has different policies on what information they store, so this is only an example. Here is a list of what information is stored on the conversations.im server. Manage Accounts->Click on account->Top right corner hamburger->Archiving preferences: either "Contacts" or "Never" Settings->Expert Settings->Blind Trust Before Verification: Disable Settings->OMEMO Encryption: Set to "Always" Here are some settings to make Conversations more secure: OMEMO encryption only works in private (members only) conferences and individual chats, so it will not work in open group chats. These are not easy concepts for the normal person to grasp: Blind Trust Before Verification. Here is some good reading on the issues with OMEMO encryption and contact trust and verification. Using OMEMO is not foolproof at all and so can easily be used incorrectly if you are looking for a truly secure system. It has taken me some time to really understand how Conversations and OMEMO works, and so I have to start by saying that if you are concerned about message confidentiality I feel this app is only for those who are technically advanced and have an understanding of the technologies involved and the limitations. You can leave a conversation but this does not delete it.
