Privacy Policy

1. Data Collection and Use

When you use our BitLocker encryption service, we may collect certain personal and technical data to provide you with an optimized, secure experience. This data includes:

Device Information: We may gather information about the device you are using, including operating system, hardware configuration, and version of BitLocker, to ensure compatibility and functionality of our service.

Encryption Keys: We do not store or have access to your BitLocker recovery keys, passwords, or any encryption credentials. These are stored exclusively on your device, ensuring that only you can unlock the encrypted data.

User Activity Data: We may collect non-personally identifiable information regarding how you interact with the service (e.g., actions taken, time spent, and error reports). This helps us improve our service and troubleshoot issues efficiently.

2. Data Security

We take your privacy seriously and implement stringent security measures to protect your information. While BitLocker ensures the encryption of data on your device, we do not store or have direct access to any of your encrypted data. Our responsibility is limited to providing support and updates, which may involve transmitting device-related data over secure channels.

To further enhance security:

  • We use end-to-end encryption for all communications related to BitLocker settings and updates.
  • We store non-sensitive information (such as user preferences or configuration settings) in a secure manner and only for as long as needed to provide our services.
  • We restrict access to any sensitive data to authorized personnel only, under strict confidentiality agreements.
  • 3. Third-Party Services

    In some cases, we may work with third-party service providers to help us provide BitLocker-related features, such as technical support or system performance monitoring. These third parties may have access to certain data, but only for the purpose of assisting us in delivering the service. We ensure that all third-party providers comply with applicable data protection regulations and safeguard your data accordingly.

    4. Data Retention

    We retain your data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy. If you stop using our service or request the deletion of your account, we will remove any non-essential information we may have stored. However, encrypted data stored locally on your device remains under your control and is not deleted by us.

    5. Your Rights and Control

    You have full control over your BitLocker encryption settings. You can:

  • Manage encryption keys, recovery options, and passwords directly through your device’s settings.
  • Request to delete any user-specific data we may have stored (excluding encrypted data).
  • Access any personal data that we may hold, provided such access does not compromise the security of the encryption or service.

  • 6. Updates and Changes to the Privacy Policy

    We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our services or to comply with new regulations. We will notify you of any significant changes through appropriate means, such as email or a prominent notice on our website.
