Privacy Notice

Last updated: July 24, 2026

SuperWatchDog is a personal privacy protection tool for Windows PCs. This notice explains how the website, installer, and Windows client handle data related to you.

Scope

This notice applies to the SuperWatchDog website, installer, and Windows client. We will update it if related services or data-handling practices change.

What We Do Not Collect

• We do not upload your files, file lists, vault contents, passwords, recovery keys, or personal documents.
• We do not save plaintext BitLocker passwords or store your recovery materials for you.
• We do not upload camera frames, screen captures, window contents, or local file path lists.
• The website does not embed third-party analytics, advertising scripts, tracking scripts, or remote fonts.

Local Processing

Vault operations, trusted device state, and protection actions are processed on your Windows PC. Basic protection features do not depend on a remote account or cloud service.

Local Logs and Diagnostics

The software may write essential local status, error, and diagnostic logs. After an unexpected exit, it may also save an error code, app version, redacted logs, and a limited number of small crash dumps locally.

A diagnostic report is sent or exported only after you confirm. Small crash dumps are excluded by default and require a separate selection; a dump may contain a small amount of memory near the failing thread. Reports do not collect vault contents, file lists, passwords, recovery keys, camera frames, screenshots, or window contents.

Downloads and Updates

The website may provide installer download links. When downloading an installer, your browser communicates with the relevant download host. Updates verify the installer before it runs.

Timed Pro License Connection

Free and permanent licenses do not need an online license-term check. A timed Pro license periodically uses an encrypted connection to confirm that its term remains valid. The request does not send a device identity, license ID, vault information, device list, or usage statistics.

Anonymous Usage Statistics

The software may send a random installation identifier, app version, download channel, and app-start record to understand installations, usage trends, and version distribution. The identifier is not derived from hardware or a Windows account. No vault information, device list, file path, or camera frame is included. Data is sent only through encrypted connections, and failure does not affect product features.

Your Responsibility

Keep your vault files, BitLocker password, and recovery materials safe. If you forget the password and lose recovery materials, vault contents may be unrecoverable. SuperWatchDog does not save plaintext BitLocker passwords and cannot decrypt a vault for you.
