Jan 31, 2023 1 min, 3 secs
Today, based on industry feedback and out of an abundance of caution, the eufy Security Web portal now prohibits users from entering debug mode, and the code has been hardened and obfuscated.

First, the purpose of sending a user image from the eufy App to our devices is to give the local facial recognition software a baseline to run its algorithm.

Today, less than 0.1 percent of our active users utilize the live streaming feature on the Web portal; however, it is very clear to all of us that encryption protocols should have been designed into this solution from the very beginning.

Several new protocols and procedures have been put in place to make sure that all data flowing from the user’s devices to the eufy Security App or Web portal must utilize end-to-end encryption.

Lastly, at the beginning of next month, we will launch a microsite to better explain how our processes work, to provide clearer explanations on which are done locally, and which currently require the use of our secure cloud.

Regarding our privacy policy, while we were working to re-write this a few weeks ago and be clearer about which processes used the cloud and which did not, someone jumped the gun and pushed a redacted version.
