Why SOLVE iQ Collects Device Hardware and Software Inventory Information

What Information We Collect
Personal Information
SOLVE iQ collects your Personal Information at a variety of points, including when you place an order, (which may require you to provide personal information, including a credit card number, to our commerce providers) register software, request services or take part in other activities on our Web site.

Device Hardware/Software Inventory and Performance Information
The scanning technology present in our software is designed to collect all hardware ID’s and software signatures present in the system and passes this data back to our servers.

We use this information so that our servers can respond back to our software with potential performance improvements that may be available to the user with the software. While in trial-mode (pre-purchase) this information is not tied in any way to any personal information.
