Twin Cities PC Repair respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you provide when visiting our website, scheduling an appointment, purchasing a product or service, requesting computer repair, or communicating with us.
This Privacy Policy explains what information we may collect, why we collect it, how it may be used, and the steps we take to protect it.
Information We Collect
Depending on how you interact with Twin Cities PC Repair, we may collect information such as:
- Name

We collect only the information reasonably necessary to provide our services, communicate with customers, process transactions, operate our website, and maintain appropriate business records.
Information Related to Computer Repair
Providing computer repair, data recovery, migration, malware removal, or other technical services may require temporary access to a customer's computer or device.
Depending on the service requested, a technician may encounter personal files, photographs, documents, user accounts, application data, or other information stored on the device.
Twin Cities PC Repair does not access customer data beyond what is reasonably necessary to diagnose a problem, perform an authorized service, verify a repair, transfer requested data, or provide technical support.
Customers are encouraged to maintain current backups of important information and remove highly sensitive information from a device before service whenever practical.
Passwords & Login Information
Certain repairs may require a device password, Windows or macOS login, encryption recovery key, or other access information.
Any credentials provided for service are used only as reasonably necessary to complete the requested work.
Customers should never send financial-account passwords or other unrelated sensitive credentials unless specifically necessary for an authorized service.
We recommend changing temporary passwords provided for repair purposes after service is completed.
Remote Support
When you request remote computer support, you authorize Twin Cities PC Repair to remotely access your computer for the purpose of providing the requested service.
Remote-access sessions may allow the technician to view or interact with information displayed on your computer.
Remote access is used only for authorized support purposes. Customers may terminate a remote session at any time.
Data Backup, Migration & Recovery
When performing data backup, migration, cloning, transfer, or recovery services, customer data may temporarily reside on equipment or storage media used by Twin Cities PC Repair.
We take reasonable precautions when handling customer data and do not intentionally retain customer files longer than reasonably necessary to complete the requested service, unless another arrangement has been made with the customer.
No data storage or recovery process can be guaranteed to be completely risk-free. Customers should maintain independent backups whenever possible.
