Trust, Security & Ethics
Our commitment to transparency, privacy, and responsible software development.
No Malware Assurance
Speccy Pro is 100% clean. We do not bundle toolbars, adware, spyware, or third-party offers in our installers.
Every release is scanned by over 60 antivirus engines on VirusTotal before publication. We digitally sign our executables with a certificate issued to Piriform Software Ltd to ensure authenticity.

We believe your system data belongs to you.
- Speccy Pro performs all analysis locally on your device.
- We do not upload hardware snapshots to our servers unless you use the "Publish Snapshot" feature.
- Published snapshots are assigned a random URL and are not indexed by search engines.
- We do not collect personal identifiers such as names, email addresses, or browsing history via the desktop application.
Ethical Usage Guidelines
Speccy Pro is a powerful diagnostic tool. We expect our users to employ it responsibly:
- Do not use Speccy Pro to monitor systems you do not own or have permission to administer.
- Respect the privacy of others when exporting and sharing system snapshots.
