USB licenses are completely anonymous and no information about you or your system is collected or sent to us.

IA licenses require communication with an Activation Server over the internet. For DT Videolabs software to function, an IA license must be activated on a system. The activation process asks for a serial number and personal information, however, only the serial number required. The activation process also collects system information which is required for your license to function. The system information includes computer name, user account name, OS version, screen resolution, local IP address, CPU Type, system version, mac address and Apple serial number This information can be deleted by us on request, however, removing this information may impact our ability to help you resolve any licensing problems which may occur, including, for your security, our ability to confirm your identity if a license reset is required because a computer is lost, stolen or becomes inoperative.
How IA license data is used
All data is strictly used for digital license registration and support purposes. License information may be accessed on the Activation Server by our technicians with proper credentials when providing customer or license support. This information is stored on a secure Activation Server until a license is released.
When you release a license through one of our software applications or on our website, all personal information and additional system information is immediately deleted from the Activation Server but may reside in database backups for several months.
