In order to do this, we are required to collect some data so we can offer you the best PC cleaning, optimization and privacy tools available. Our Privacy Policy documentation, and in particular our Products Policy, covers the data we collect and what it’s used for and how it is stored. Although we have made every effort to keep our policies short, that’s not always possible with legal documents, so to keep things simple we have created this Data Factsheet to provide a quick and easy summary of the information available in our policies. This factsheet outlines the data reported by each of our products, which data is only processed locally on your device (and not reported to us) and where you can find available opt outs. Important points about your data: Data is collected in accordance with data processing best practices and international and domestic privacy laws such as GDPR. Data for some products (such as Kamo and CCleaner Browser) is stored in the same secure data centers as our parent company Avast. Data for some other products is also stored in AWS and Rackspace. We share some data with selected third parties, only when it is necessary to. These third parties are, for example: Our payment providers Cleverbridge and Braintree, so your payments can be processed Data analytics tools including Google Analytics, Logentries, Loggly and Mixpanel, so we can see and analyze website and Product Data and turn this into statistics that we use to help us give you a better experience when using our website or products Summary by product CCleaner (Free and Professional) When you use CCleaner to clean or manage your device, some data is processed locally on your device and is not reported to us.

This data is helpful but doesn’t need to be reported. You can choose whether you’d like CCleaner to report usage data in CCleaner’s ‘Privacy’ tab.
