Privacy Policy

How SPECTER Imaging handles local investigation data, activation, purchases, support, optional remote access, and anonymous website usage counts.

1. Local-first investigation data

SPECTER Imaging processes camera frames, depth data, thermal streams, microphone audio, sensor telemetry, recordings, evidence, annotations, settings, and reports primarily on your computer. Normal operation does not upload this investigation content to SPECTER. You choose whether to export or share it.

2. License activation

Activation sends the key, product identifier, purchase email when entered, a one-way device identifier, and activation status. SPECTER stores the key record, product, email, purchase reference, machine binding, status, and timestamps for delivery, enforcement, fraud prevention, transfers, and support.

3. Purchases

Stripe processes checkout. SPECTER receives the customer email, product, amount, currency, tax and payment status when applicable, Stripe transaction references, and accepted legal-document versions and timestamp. SPECTER does not receive full card numbers.

4. Support

Support records can include name, email, product, subject, messages, ticket history, a device identifier if submitted from the application, and diagnostics you choose to provide. Do not submit passwords, card details, or private investigation content unless necessary and appropriate.

5. Optional remote access and alerts

Local phone, wall-display, camera, and sensor connections remain on networks or destinations you configure. If you enable hosted remote access, Cloudflare Tunnel processes network traffic to route the session to your computer. Web Push providers process subscription identifiers and notification delivery. SPECTER stores tunnel provisioning and push subscription data needed to provide these optional features. Disable the feature to stop future use and remove subscriptions where the application provides that control.

6. Anonymous website usage counts

From September 17, 2026, this site counts public page loads and download-link clicks to understand site usage and improve its pages and download flow. This limited audience measurement runs without a consent popup. Each unlinked count contains only the site, a known public page path, the action type, and the UTC day. Query strings and fragments are excluded. Repeated visits are counted again; these statistics are not counts of unique people or completed installations.

The counter does not create visitor IDs, session IDs, tracking cookies, fingerprints, browsing histories, or advertising audiences. It does not store IP addresses, raw user-agent strings, precise timestamps, location, referrers, campaign tags, email addresses, purchase references, or payment data in the analytics store. Count data is not joined to license, checkout, or support records and is not supplied to advertising networks. Requests still pass through the hosting provider, whose separate operational processing is described below.

You can object at any time using the button below. Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track also disable counting. A prior analytics refusal in this browser remains respected. The opt-out stores only a local preference needed to remember your choice on this site, not a unique identifier. The retired tracker's browser identifiers are cleared when the updated script loads. Historic analytics collected with consent before the change remain separate from the new identifier-free counts and are not used to identify new visits.

7. Hosting and security logs

Netlify and infrastructure providers may process IP address, request path, timestamp, user agent, approximate network location, and security logs to deliver and protect the site. These operational logs are separate from anonymous usage counts.

8. Updates and optional third-party services

Update checks contact the official release service. Cloudflare, Stripe, Netlify, Brevo or another transactional mail provider, Web Push providers, map or media providers, and equipment vendors process data under their own terms when you use the related feature. Ordinary network information such as IP address and user agent is exposed to the destination service.

9. Retention

Local content remains until you delete it. License and transaction records are retained while needed for fulfillment, activation, fraud prevention, accounting, tax, legal, and dispute purposes. Support records are retained as reasonably needed for service history. Anonymous usage counts may be retained for site-usage reports. Previously consented analytics records remain subject to the applicable privacy policy and data rights; new counts do not extend or link their identifiers.

10. Your choices and requests

You may decline analytics, clear browser storage, delete local content, disable optional remote features, and request access, correction, or deletion of personal information associated with your email, subject to identity verification and legal retention obligations. Additional rights may apply based on location.

11. Security and international processing

Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used, but no system is perfectly secure. Providers may process information in the United States or other locations where they operate, subject to their legal and contractual safeguards.

12. Children and changes

The products and site are not directed to children under 13. Material changes will be posted with a revised version and effective date.
