Privacy statement

Data of individual devices will never be shared with third parties:
  • By default, no personal information (e.g. documents, photos, videos, emails, contacts, license keys, passwords, etc.) is retrieved;
  • Only in the so-called 'partner mode', license keys are retrieved and forwarded to the partner for re-installation purposes;

  • After 30 days, scan results of non-registered devices are anonymized automatically;
  • Scans can also be removed by the end-user or by PC Repair by Fortify247 Ltd - Keeping IT Simple.
Email addresses will never be shared with third parties:
  • Optional registration uses the double opt-in mechanism;
  • Unconfirmed registrations are removed after 1 week;
  • Email addresses without registrations are removed at the end of the day.
Secure connections are used by default:
  • If the scan data cannot be sent to the ScanCircle server, the option is given to try a plain connection;
  • To support malfunctioning devices, HTTPS is not enforced on deep links (e.g. to the scan page).
