We believe that privacy is a personal right, not a consumer good that needs to be bought. We want to base our decisions on matters of privacy and security only, not commercial gain. We also believe in free choice.
Spybot-S&D is maintained by a team of people very dedicated to privacy issues, many of which are working fulltime on analyzing masses of new threats each week, and the response time from our support team is better than that of many a commercial vendor. Sometimes we even have to defend our decision to protect your privacy at court. All these things are not without cost to us.
As a compromise, we would appreciate it if you would honor our efforts with a moderate donation. As a private customer, you are free to not give us anything for using Spybot-S&D to its fullest extent, but any donation will directly support our teams efforts to provide you with a top grade anti-malware solution, and secure our continuous operation and your freedom of choice. |
