iSmartSafe Privacy Report

The security company iSmartSafe isn’t transparent about its encryption methods, leaving its rating rubric incomplete by default. However, the company doesn’t log any camera or microphone data and has no history of security breaches or surveillance issues. iSmartSafe’s privacy policy is problematic, however, as the company keeps the user’s location, IP address, browser type, timestamps of usage, etc. In addition, iSmartSafe shares this information with third parties, which detracted from the company’s overall score.
