Canary Pro Privacy Report

Privacy Rating

6.3

/10

We’re always wary of our privacy when using security cameras, but moreso when the camera logs video and audio recordings just like the Canary Pro. It’s also concerning to know that Canary stores its users’ personal information such as name and address and payment information. Fortunately, the Canary Pro is exemplary when it comes to protecting its users’ data. The Canary Pro is known to encrypt all its network communications, including data in transit to the Canary cloud.
