About us
Built on .NET technology, this unified agent rests on a modular, plugin-based architecture. Every DriversCloud service can therefore add its own features while plugging into a shared core that handles communication, information gathering and task execution.
The agent analyses the hardware and software configuration of the system in order to identify precisely which components are installed and to provide the information the various services of the platform need.
The detection engine notably uses the hardware recognition technology of CPU-Z, extended by developments specific to DriversCloud for the analysis, the processing and the delivery of the data.
Your configuration data is never sold, rented or passed on to third parties. It is used only to display your hardware and software inventory, and stored configurations are encrypted. No personal or private data is collected.
What the agent sends is filtered by a four-level privacy system that you set in the agent options. Identifying information — serial numbers, hardware identifiers, registered owner — belongs to the highest level, above the level applied by default: it is not sent unless you explicitly ask for it. You do not have to enable everything either: you choose the modules you need.
Your Windows user name and your machine host name are replaced by « anonymous » in the data sent to the server: they never reach us. And by default, a configuration is visible to you only — a public or named share happens at the level you choose, and can be changed or revoked at any time.
Your data belongs to you: you can export your configurations, delete one of them, or erase all of your data from your account, with no conditions.
