This includes a service for monitoring and storing online activity reports and content of communications, in particular social networks, and for blocking certain categories of sites, at your option. SecureTeen provides a dashboard on the Platform for enabling you to configure the level and degree of monitoring of the computer/s and or other devices associated to the account. You are SOLELY RESPONSIBLE for how such dashboard controls are configured and the processing of personal data as a consequence, including its collection, storage and analysis on the Platform. SecureTeen only implements automatically the configuration and instructions provided by you.
