The conversation between human and AI assistant.
Do free AV programs like Avira & Avast collect personal data from the users’ PCs? Do they collect info from the users’ browsing data, email, OneNote, etc.?
That sounds concerning. Is there a way to prevent them from doing so?
Yes, some AV programs may allow you to opt-out of data collection or provide options to limit data collection. You can also consider using a paid AV program, which may have more options for controlling data collection.
