Privacy Policy
Virus Plow is built on the principle of the Digital Guardian. Unlike legacy suites that monetize your data, we operate under a Zero-Tracking mandate. Your security is our product—not your identity.
Zero-Tracking Policy
We do not track your browsing history, your location, or your application usage. Our engine runs locally on your machine, processing threats without ever reporting back your personal habits to our servers.
Open Source Integrity
Trust is earned through transparency. Our core scanning logic is open-source and regularly audited by independent third-party researchers to ensure no backdoors exist.
1. Data We Don't Collect
The shortest part of our policy is the data we collect. By design, Virus Plow minimizes data ingestion. We do NOT collect:
- block Personal Browsing History: We do not know which websites you visit or what files you download.
- block Biometric Data: No facial recognition or fingerprint data is ever stored or transmitted.
- block Identity Mapping: Your IP address is never linked to your security logs on our infrastructure.
2. How We Protect You
Protection is achieved through high-performance engineering that respects boundaries. Our "Digital Guardian" framework uses the following methods:
Local-First Heuristics
Threat detection is performed on-device. Signature updates are pushed to your client, but your file hashes never leave your local encrypted vault unless you explicitly submit a sample for manual analysis.
Anonymized Metadata
When our system reports a global threat outbreak, it uses differential privacy algorithms to mask the origin, ensuring that while the community is protected, the individual remains invisible.
3. Cookie Policy
We believe the web should be clean. Virus Plow does not use tracking cookies, advertising beacons, or pixel tags on our dashboard or website.
We only use essential session cookies to keep you logged into your secure console.
No Google Analytics, no Facebook Pixels. We use our own privacy-first internal metrics.
4. Government & Legal Requests
Since we maintain a zero-knowledge architecture, we cannot provide what we do not possess. In the event of a legal request for data, we will provide our transparency report and demonstrate the technical impossibility of identifying specific user behaviors due to our local-first processing.
