Simulations are clearly labeled.
Shield, Tor and fingerprint demonstrations use sample data. The web demo does not measure your device security or change your real IP address.
Trust starts with clear information.
What happens on your device, and what uses a network connection? See the data flow and limits of the ICON experience.
See what you are sharing.
A shared profile contains your theme, search engine and protection settings. Recipients can see those choices and the profile name you provided.
Understand the limits, too.
Blockers cannot stop every tracker. Tor is not an anonymity guarantee; signing into an account may reveal your identity.
Where is data processed?
| Action | Location | What to know |
|---|---|---|
| Link cleaning | This browser | The cleaner does not open your URL or send it to a server. |
| Demo choices | Memory / session | When you choose to build a profile, only settings are carried into this tab’s session storage. |
| Favorites and local profiles | This browser’s storage | Clearing browser data removes these records. You can remove local profiles from the gallery. |
| Saving a profile to your account | Site server | After you sign in and press Save, the selected settings are sent to your account. |
| Feedback | Site server | Requests are linked to your account. Details are private; only a staff-written summary of a feature suggestion you consented to share can be published. |
| DNS and Tor | Selected network providers | When these desktop features are enabled, connections are made to the DNS provider or Tor network. |
| Website visits | Server logs | The site uses page/download counters and server access logs. See the privacy policy for details. |

A matching SHA-256 shows the file matches the published hash. It does not by itself prove publisher identity or that a file is harmless. Check the digital signature separately.
