Title: About permissions and privacy processsing of personal info policy
Post by: REDACTED on June 29, 2014, 08:29:37 PM

I was reading our end user license and I was wondering how often is info collected on average. Is it usually when there is an infection like it says or is there occational checks. I see copies of files are sent when there a threat, so like if an app that lets you write text in it is infected all my text is sent(8.1)? I dont wanna go down the list. But basically I feel weird its like someones looking at my pictures and I don't want them being sent to you.

Hi,

I won't list what and how often is sent, but believe me, unless your pictures or videos or other personal files are infected, they won't be sent to our servers :) If an app is infected (or we believe it might be), the app might get sent for further analysis, but it's pretty rare for its files to be sent as well.
