Information about Product Data Collection and Compliance
McAfee products collect and use a variety of information as part of provisioning (setup) and ongoing processing to deliver security and safety to customers’ digital and online activities. Many McAfee products work together using common data elements to ensure the best experience for customers. The paragraphs below describe the collection of information in the course of customers’ use of McAfee products. Some information McAfee collects is characterized as “personal data”, which means data that may be able to be used to directly or indirectly identify a particular individual.
For additional information on why McAfee collects personal data, how we protect it, how we use it, and in what instances we might share it, please see our
Privacy Notice.
GDPR compliance
The European Union (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is in force effective May 25, 2018, providing the pan-European standard for individuals rights to privacy and protection of personal data. McAfee strives for a high standard of data privacy and protections as an obligation to our customers. As we continue to adjust and improve data handling practices, McAfee has made changes to meet compliance with GDPR and our responsibility to customers.

Payment information
McAfee is an ecommerce company compliant with Payment Card Industry (PCI) standards. McAfee collects and stores information to complete purchases you make for the payment method you choose, for a given transaction. McAfee supports many payment methods and the payment methods available may be different depending on the country where you reside and make a purchase. McAfee will retain information for multiple payment methods if you provide it.

Payment information includes:
- Credit card Personal Account Number (PAN) and expiration date
- Bank account information for Direct Debit (DD) transactions
- PayPal account information
Unique user identifier
Unique identifiers, often referred to as account IDs, are used to associate subscriptions, services and personal data to a single account, and to ensure data is not available to or mixed with data for another user or account. These identifiers, typically email addresses, are linked to a password that secures your account and your information from unauthorized access. Passwords and password recovery information are encrypted and not readable by McAfee.
- Email address
- Password
- Password recovery hint, phrase or challenge questions and answers when provided
Geo-location and geo-position data

McAfee collects geolocation information to the level of the state or province, city, and postal code linked to the Internet Protocol (IP) address associated with your computing device and internet connection. McAfee collects geo-positioning data for mobile devices and service.

Machine/device data
Information about devices, such as laptop computers, mobile phones, or networking devices are collected and stored to help McAfee optimize the design and the performance of products.

- Device manufacturers ID
- Device type, make and model are collected for most devices
- Device configuration, such as memory, CPU, and OS version
- Other configuration, such as installed web browsers and security software

Error code information when a product malfunctions also is telemetry. Telemetry covers a wide range of “event” type data that is used to optimize or improve McAfee products. McAfee uses telemetry to improve product reliability, performance and usability. It may be associated with a unique ID to diagnose problems, but does not otherwise collect personal data.

Various data about your subscription is set and stored to ensure you get the service and features matched to the subscription you selected.

Subscription data that is retained by McAfee includes the following:
- Purchase date
- Price paid
- Subscription end/renewal date
- Affiliate ID
- Item purchased
- Sales order or other purchase ID
- Product key
Global Threat Intelligence (GTI)
McAfee GTI is a custom solution for recording, mapping, and ultimately predicting security threats. McAfee products return threat and URL data from the device to the GTI backend where it is retained briefly (7 days) for purposes of threat modeling. When this information is sent to GTI, it is not associated with or linked to an individual or subscription.
