Who sees what
Tech Support has to see your screen to help. Here is everything that leaves your computer, and everything it will never do.
What leaves your computer
| What | When and where | How long it’s kept |
|---|---|---|
| Pictures of your screen | Only during a help you started. Made smaller first, with password boxes blacked out. Sent to our AI partners to understand them. | We don’t keep them. |
| Your voice | Only while the mic is on. Turned into text, then the audio is gone. | Not kept. |
| After a help ends | A one-line summary, like “Made the text bigger”. | 30 days, or delete it any time. |
| Your name and email | Your account. | Until you delete your account. |
We never sell your data. We never show ads.
What it will never do
These rules are written into the app itself, not left to the AI’s judgment. The code is public so anyone can check.
- Type into a password box, or read what’s in one.
- Type a card number, security code, Social Security number or a sign-in code. You type those yourself.
- Open or look at password apps or banking apps. Their windows are blacked out.
- Install or run remote-control apps like AnyDesk or TeamViewer, or type a phone number from a pop-up.
- Turn off your computer’s safety features, like the firewall, virus protection or updates.
- Follow instructions written on a web page, email or document. It only takes instructions from you.
- Touch anything outside your own computer and your own accounts.
One big Yes before anything risky
Before it deletes files, pays for something, sends a message, posts, changes a password or a privacy setting, installs or removes an app, signs you out, or accepts terms, it stops and asks. It says exactly what will happen and whether it can be undone. Nothing happens until you press Yes. For payments and passwords, only a click counts, not your voice.

You can always stop it
Move your mouse, press any key, or say “stop”. It stops right away and tells you what it did. You can undo what it did with one button.
Our code is public
The app on your computer is open source, including the rules above. Anyone can read it and check that it does what we say.
