• For purposes you specifically provided the information
such as to enable us to process, validate and verify purchases.
• To register you as a customer and open and maintain a

believe that the law may require us to do so.
Identity Defender Software
What Information Identity Defender Collects
Identity Defender software does not collect any information
from your computer.
When you install Identity Defender, the Identity Defender
toolbar communicates with our server to receive an ID number.
This is just a number to uniquely count the number of toolbar
users out there, and to help us identify fraud reports.
Each subsequent time that your Identity Defender toolbar
downloads the latest blacklist information, the only information
shared is your toolbar ID and the version number of Identity
Defender you have.
Updates
Your copy of Identity Defender, once installed, will check
in with our server occasionally to receive updated fraud
information. We do not record nor do we have access to the
websites you view when Identity Defender is installed. Your
copy of Identity Defender simply accesses our server and
supplies its toolbar ID and version number, and Identity
Defender responds with updated fraud information.
You can control the way updates are performed through Settings
dialog. By default database updates are automatic and software
updates are performed after confirmed notification of engine
update available.
How Fraud Reports are Handled
When you report a site to Identity Defender as fraudulent
an anonymous fraud report is sent to our fraud analysis
team. No personal identifying information is included; the
only information included with the fraud report is your
unique toolbar ID. When you submit a fraud report, it may
be used by us to (a) update our threat database and blacklist,
and (b) to alert the victim of identity theft attack.
Policy Modifications
We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. However,
any changes will be posted promptly here, so please check
back periodically.
If you have any questions regarding this privacy policy,
please contact us using our contact form.
