Our Commitment: Total Security Check is designed with privacy at its core. We do not collect personal information, we do not use cookies, and we do not track you across the web.
Overview
This Privacy Policy explains how Total Security Check ("we", "us", or "our") handles information when you use our website and security scanning tools. We believe in transparency and want you to understand exactly what happens when you use our services.
Information We Do Not Collect
We want to be clear about what we do NOT do:
- No Personal Data Collection: We do not collect your name, email address, phone number, or any other personal identifiers.
- No Cookies: Our website does not use cookies of any kind — no tracking cookies, no analytics cookies, no session cookies.
- No User Accounts: We do not require registration or login, so there are no usernames or passwords stored.
- No Scan Results Storage: The results of your security scans are not saved on our servers. Once you close your browser, the results are gone.
- No Third-Party Tracking: We do not use third-party analytics, advertising networks, or social media trackers.
- No Data Selling: We do not sell, rent, or share any information with third parties for marketing purposes.
Information We Do Collect
Like virtually all web servers, our server automatically logs certain technical information for operational purposes:
- IP Addresses: Your IP address is recorded in our server logs when you access our website.
- Access Timestamps: The date and time of your visit.
- Requested Pages: Which pages on our site you accessed.
- User Agent: Basic browser and operating system information sent by your browser.
- Queried websites: We do create a record for each queried website you scanned. But again we do not store any scan results related to it.
How We Use Server Logs
The server log information is used solely for:
- Security Monitoring: Detecting and preventing malicious attacks, abuse, or unauthorized access attempts.
- Technical Troubleshooting: Identifying and fixing errors or performance issues with our website.
- Aggregate Statistics: Understanding general usage patterns such as total page views and peak usage times. This data is analyzed in aggregate form only.
We do NOT use this information to identify individual users, build profiles, or track your behavior across sessions.
Data Retention
Server logs containing IP addresses are retained for a maximum of 90 days, after which they are automatically deleted. Aggregate statistics derived from these logs (which contain no personal information) may be retained indefinitely.
How Our Scans Work
When you use our scanning tools:
- Browser Scans: Run entirely in your browser using JavaScript. The information collected stays on your device and is only sent to our server temporarily to calculate results. Nothing is stored.
- Network Scans: Your IP address is analyzed in real-time to provide security information. Results are displayed to you and then discarded.
- Website Scans: When you scan a third-party website, we fetch publicly available information about that domain. This is passive reconnaissance only — no intrusive testing is performed.
Third-Party Services
Our website does not integrate with third-party services that collect user data. We do not use:
- Google Analytics or similar tracking tools
- Advertising networks or remarketing services
- Social media plugins or share buttons that track users
- Customer data platforms or data brokers
External Links
Our website may contain links to external websites (such as VPN providers or security tools). These third-party sites have their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their practices. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any external sites you visit.
Children's Privacy
Our website is intended for general audiences and does not knowingly collect any information from children under the age of 13. Since we do not collect personal information from any users, this applies universally.
Your Rights
Since we do not collect or store personal data:
- There is no personal data for you to access, correct, or delete.
- There is no profile or account to manage.
- There is no data being shared with third parties that you need to opt out of.
If you have any concerns about the IP address information in our server logs, please contact us and we will address your concerns promptly.
Security
We implement appropriate technical measures to protect our server infrastructure and logs from unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction. Our website is served over HTTPS to encrypt data in transit between your browser and our servers.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
