As a software development company, we always strive to make our software as secure as possible. Here are some things we do to keep you safe and ensure your privacy.
Signing
The installer available for download is signed with an EV certificate. EV stands for extended validation, a high standard for digital certificates used with hardware dongles to keep them safe.
After downloading the installer, you can right-click it and select properties. The property dialog will have a signature tab with the signature information.
Virus Scanning
Development is done on computers with updated anti-virus software. The installer is also analyzed with a long list of scanners to add an extra layer of security. Occasionally, we see that some scanners flag the software as a potential threat. False positives are common, as scanners find patterns similar to some of the viruses they are looking for.
Privacy
The software does not send any information back to us. Therefore, what you print will stay your secret. We are considering sending version information sometime in the future. This will be part of a regular update notification.
Logging and temporary files
Logging of program actions and temporary files are written when the program is running. This information is stored on your local computer. Files are cleaned up after completion unless you run it in debug mode.
Some software versions offer DOD-level deletion of the temporary files for an extra layer of security.
