	How does Product Activation protect your privacy?

Solution Activation is completely anonymous; no personally identifiable information is required. For purposes of product activation only, a hardware identifier is created from general information that is included in the system components. At no time are files on the hard drive scanned, nor is personally-identifiable information of any kind used to create the hardware identifier. Product activation is completely anonymous. To ensure your privacy, the hardware identifier is created by what is known as a "one-way hash". To produce a one-way hash, information is processed through an algorithm to create a new alphanumeric string. It is impossible to calculate the original information from the resulting string.
Your product key and a hardware identifier are the only pieces of information required to activate the product.
