HealthScan Terms, Conditions, and Privacy Policy
Notifications:
HealthScan monitoring notifications come from support@computeradvantage.us, sent to the email address used at registration. Please add this email address to your address book and check any junk mail filter to ensure you are receiving important notifications from the HealthScan service. Computer Advantage is not responsible for unread (for any reason, including but not limited to typos and junk mail filters) notifications. So please check your junk mail 🙂
Privacy
Your privacy comes first.
Our lightweight Health Scan monitoring software is designed to provide best-in-class issue detection with minimal access to the monitored computer. Only the information required to identify the computer and troubleshoot problems is sent to our servers.
The following information is gathered about a computer:
- Group Name: We assign an arbitrary “Group” for computer(s) so we know who to call when problems are reported.
- Serial Number: the serial number helps us determine warranty status and gives us valuable information about the computer when problems arise.
- Computer Name: The same name that is visible in:
- Sharing PreferencePane (Mac)
- System Control Panel (Windows)
- Hostname (Linux)
- Monitoring ID: A random identifier is created upon installation for our systems to identify status reports.
- User Name: The “short name” of the last user to log into the computer.
- Online Backup Information: If online backups are monitored, the email address associated with online backup systems will be reported. An administrator can disable this, but the status of that online backup would not be reported.
- Name and email address provided at the time of registration.
The Health Scan monitoring client software does NOT track the following types of information:
- We cannot track screen or keyboard activity
- We cannot see the contents of your screen with the monitoring client.
- We cannot inspect browser history or other similar user actions.
- The software can not read your data (pictures, documents, etc).
- We do not send full logs. Rather than sending full log files, the software only sends the results of the health checks.
- A computer’s physical location is not readily available*
The agent cannot install or update any other software on your computer. The agent uses read-only commands to perform its duties.
*In cases where a computer is considered stolen or missing, administrators can request a one-time notification of the reporting IP address.
Here is what we can do:
- We can tell when your backups are failing.
- We can tell when hard drives begin to fail, and schedule their repair with you.
- We can tell when malware finds its way to your computer, help you get rid of it.
- If enabled, the agent will automatically receive updates.
- Issues are reported to Computer Advantage support personnel, who will review and contact you with recommended solutions.
This software is not a computer management system, it’s only there to locate problems. We don’t own your computer, we’re just looking after its well-being.
It’s a health monitor, not a listening device.
