REMOTE ACCESS:

While requesting support you may request for the problem to be resolved by enabling CodeRed Tech Support technicians to have access to and take control of your computer. CodeRed Tech Support uses software tools which enable you to grant control of your computer to an CodeRed Tech Support technician remotely over the Internet. This allows the CodeRed Tech Support technician to diagnose or correct problems without ever coming to the location of your computer.

CodeRed Tech Support does not use the Remote Access software to access and control your computer without your consent and we request that you remain present when our technicians are doing so.

CodeRed Tech Support technicians are trained in the use of this software and we take steps to limit access to confidential or sensitive information stored on user computer or network, avoid deliberate destruction of information on user computers or networks, and help avoid system problems. CodeRed Tech Support maintains specific internal policy and technical controls to limit how and whether our remote access tools may be used to assist you.

DIAGNOSTIC TOOL:

CodeRed Tech Support uses some online diagnostic tools that may collect a wide variety of useful information about the state of a computer system and your applications. This information is communicated to CodeRed using security technologies over the Internet. CodeRed Tech Support analyzes this information to help diagnose and solve end-user problems. The CodeRed Tech Support diagnostic application is not designed to collect sensitive information including information such websites visited, e-mail messages, e-mail addresses sent to, passwords, profiles, etc.
Use of the Remote Access and Diagnostic applications may be subject to the terms and conditions of the respective software license agreements.

LIVE HELP SESSION RECORDS:

CodeRed Tech Support reserves the right to monitor and record on-line and off-line sessions between users and CodeRed Tech Support technicians for quality control and service-related purposes. Some uses of this type of information include improving the Service, building a support knowledge base and conducting internal market research. We do not correlate session record data used for these purposes with personal information.

SECURITY

We use a variety of security technologies, as well as administrative, managerial, and physical safeguards, to help protect personal information and other data we receive from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.
