What data we process

We process different data depending on the situation. You can learn details about what data we process in this section.
Some data that we receive and process may be treated as personal data (“Personal Data”) in accordance with the laws of certain territories and countries. When we use terms “personal data” or “personal information”, we mean any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person, excluding any anonymized and depersonalized data where your identity is absent or has been removed and cannot be recovered.
When you visit the Websites, the AdGuard Account, or the Affiliate Accountand their subdomains, we process the following information obtained by our web server to provide you with the content you request: IP addresses in anonymized form, timestamp of the server request, type and version of your web browser, name and version of your operating system, requesting domain (URL), address of the previously visited page (referrer URL), host name.

When you visit the Websites

You can visit and use the Websites for informational purposes without having to provide any personal data. However, to provide you with certain functionality of our Websites listed below, we need to process some of your personal data. Without such processing, we will not be able to provide you with such functionality of our Websites.
Sending messages. We may use your email address to communicate with you when we need to make announcements, inform you of updates and new features in our software or services, provide you with advice, and communicate with you when you report errors.
You may also give us your consent to process your email to send you marketing messages about other AdGuard software or services. You may withdraw your consent at any time by unsubscribing from our newsletter via the AdGuard Account or by clicking the “Unsubscribe” button or link in the email itself.
Buying a license. We process your email address for billing and payment purposes. If you buy a subscription to AdGuard software, we’ll use the email address you provide to send you information about the purchase, such as your subscription status and renewal notifications (if applicable), and to recover your license key if you request it.
We conduct all transactions via two payment providers — Paddle.com Inc. and PayPro Global — to process payments when you purchase a subscription to use our software and services. Processed data: your email address, country of residence, zip/postal code, and if you use a bank card to make a purchase, the card number, name, expiration date and the security code associated with the bank card. Paddle privacy policy: www.paddle.com/legal/privacy. PayPro Global privacy policy: docs.payproglobal.com/documents/legal/privacyPolicy.pdf
The third-party service provider may transmit some of your personal data to us, but not including payment information, unless you specifically agree (as may be the case if you purchase a subscription with auto-renewal). We may use the information to verify your registration or subscription status, or for renewal of your subscription, if applicable.

When you use the AdGuard Account

To use our AdGuard Account, you need to register your account and sign in.
Registering your account. We process your email address and a hash of the password you use for authorization. That ensures that you can retrieve your password if needed.

Sending messages. To keep you informed about the operation and new features of the AdGuard Account, we will process your email address.
To receive newsletters and promotional emails about the AdGuard software, you can opt-in and subscribe to the newsletters. You can withdraw your consent at any time by unsubscribing in your account settings or by clicking on the appropriate link in the email you receive.

Safeguarding measures

We make every possible effort to protect you and your Personal Data from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. We implement and maintain the following technical and security measures:
  • System access controls: We take reasonable measures to prevent Personal Data from being used without authorization. These controls shall vary based on the nature of the processing undertaken and may include, but are not limited to, authentication via passwords and/or two-factor authentication, documented authorization processes, documented change management processes and/or logging of access on several levels.

  • Storing data in a data center: Personal information is stored in our own data center located in Frankfurt, Germany. This is secure: the data center does not demand that we collect any data about your traffic or your use of our products and services. If they request us to start doing so, we will stop working with them and find an alternative.
  • Transmission controls: We take reasonable measures to ensure that it is possible to check and establish to which entities the transfer of personal data by means of data transmission facilities is envisaged so personal data cannot be read, copied, modified, or removed without authorization during electronic transmission or transport.
  • Input controls: We take reasonable measures to make it possible to check and establish whether and by whom personal data has been entered into data processing systems, modified, or removed.
