If you make a payment in privacy mode, you won't get a confirmation notice and the transaction won't appear under the "Transactions" tab until after the transaction is sent (~30 minutes).
In future updates you will get confirmation. You'll also get progress tracking. For now, you won't.
I know this might be a stupid question, but I have very small knowledge of this.
It means the transaction is Un Traceable
Real Life Example :
u put mail in ur mailbox to send to friend. before putting in box u put a lock on it and send your friend the key. only your friend has this key to unlock. the mail man gets your mail and rips it up into 1000 pieces. he gives 1000 pieces to 1000 other mail men. each mail men routes the mail down different routes to your friends house. Each mail man gets a tip from you for routing their portion of the mail (lets say 0.001 XC), the more pieces of mail the mail mens deliever the more tips they get / when all the pieces of the mail hit your friends house your friend re-assembles the 1000 pieces of mail back into the letter. and then he uses the key u gave him earlier to unlock and read the message.
-XC (SUPREME PRIVACY)
and this isn't our last layer, we have 1 more layer of blockchain privacy coming out as well with REV3, and at that stage it will be 100% anonymous & bullet-proof when combined with all the layers we have built
