Privacy Policy
How Screen Medic handles information and respects your privacy.
Last Updated: November 4, 2026
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how Screen Medic, available at https://screenmedic.icu, handles information when you visit the website or use its screen and display diagnostic tools.
The policy describes the information that may be processed, the purposes for which it may be used, cookies and similar technologies, analytics, advertising services, and the choices and rights that may be available to visitors.
Our screen diagnostic tools are designed to display visual test patterns in your browser. A standard visual test does not require you to upload a photograph or screenshot of your display.
Your Privacy Matters
- Screen test patterns are designed to run in your browser.
- Our standard visual tests do not require screen screenshots to be uploaded to our servers.
- No account is required for standard diagnostic tests.
- No software installation is required to use the browser based tests.
- Some technical information may still be processed by the website, hosting provider, or third party services.
2. Who Is Responsible for Your Information?
The website operator responsible for this website is:
- Website: Screen Medic
- Owner and Founder: ACHICHE Mohamed
- Privacy contact: contact@screenmedic.icu
3. Information We May Process
The information processed depends on how you use the website and which services are enabled. It may include the following categories.
3.1 Technical and server information
When a browser requests a webpage, the website's hosting infrastructure may automatically process technical information needed to deliver, maintain and secure the service. Depending on the hosting configuration, this may include an IP address, request date and time, requested URL, referring page, browser type, operating system, device information and server error or security logs.
This information may be processed by our hosting provider and may be retained in server, security or diagnostic logs according to the provider's configuration and applicable requirements.
3.2 Information voluntarily submitted by visitors
If you contact us through email or a contact form, we may process the information you choose to provide, such as your name, email address, message and any other details included in your request. We use this information to respond and handle the inquiry.
3.3 Optional diagnostic statistics
Certain features may allow visitors to voluntarily submit limited diagnostic information, such as a monitor or screen brand and a general result category (for example, dead pixels, burn-in, ghosting or no visible issue).
If this feature is enabled and you submit information, it may be used to prepare aggregated statistics and improve the website's diagnostic resources. Do not submit personal or sensitive information in a diagnostic field.
Providing diagnostic information is optional. Visitors can use the standard screen testing tools without submitting diagnostic statistics.
4. How Screen Diagnostic Tests Work
Tools such as dead pixel tests, monitor tests, color tests, brightness and contrast tests, ghosting tests and burn-in checks are designed to display test patterns directly in your browser.
You inspect the displayed patterns visually on your own screen. The normal operation of these visual tests does not require the website to receive a screenshot or photograph of your display.
This does not mean that no information is processed when you visit the website. Basic connection information, server logs, cookies, analytics data or advertising related information may be processed as described in this policy, depending on the services enabled.
5. Purposes and Legal Bases for Processing
Where data protection laws such as the GDPR apply, we process personal information only where an applicable legal basis is available. Depending on the circumstances, the purposes and legal bases may include:
- Providing the website and tools: processing necessary to deliver a service requested by the visitor or for our legitimate interests in operating the website.
- Security and abuse prevention: legitimate interests in protecting the website, users and infrastructure, or compliance with legal obligations where applicable.
- Responding to inquiries: steps taken at the visitor's request, legitimate interests in handling communications, or another applicable legal basis.
- Audience measurement and analytics: consent where required by law, or another lawful basis where permitted and appropriately configured.
- Advertising: consent where required by law and applicable advertising policies; other processing may rely on a permitted legal basis where applicable.
- Legal compliance: compliance with legal obligations and the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims where applicable.
The applicable legal basis depends on the specific processing activity, the visitor's location and the requirements of applicable law. Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect processing carried out before withdrawal.
6. Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookies are small files stored on your device. Websites and third party services may also use local storage, pixels, tags, scripts and similar technologies.
Depending on the features enabled, Screen Medic and its service providers may use these technologies for:
- Essential functions: website operation, security and remembering technical settings.
- Analytics: understanding visits and interactions to evaluate and improve the website, where enabled.
- Advertising: displaying, measuring and, where permitted, personalizing advertisements.
- Preferences: remembering choices such as consent preferences, where such functionality is implemented.
The cookies and technologies used may change when website features or third party services are added, removed or updated. You can also manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking certain cookies may affect some website features.
Where consent is legally required, non essential cookies or similar technologies should not be activated before the visitor has made the required choice. The actual consent mechanism must be implemented separately; this policy page alone does not collect or record consent.
7. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to measure website traffic and understand how visitors interact with our pages and features. Google Analytics collects usage and measurement information to help us analyze and improve the website.
Depending on the configuration and consent settings, information processed by Google Analytics may include pages viewed, interactions, approximate location derived from network information, browser and device information, and other usage or measurement data.
Google Analytics is provided by Google. More information is available in the Google Privacy Policy.
Google's browser opt-out add-on is available at Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
8. Google AdSense and Advertising
As of the date of this Privacy Policy, Screen Medic does not display Google AdSense advertisements. Google AdSense has not yet been activated on this website.
If Google AdSense is approved and activated in the future, Google and its advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies to display, measure and, where permitted, personalize advertisements. These technologies may process information such as IP addresses, browser and device information, advertising identifiers and interactions with advertisements.
Before activating advertising services, we will update this Privacy Policy as necessary and implement the applicable privacy and consent requirements.
For more information about Google's privacy practices, you can consult the Google Privacy Policy .
Additional information about Google's advertising technologies is available at Google's Advertising Technologies .
9. Consent for Visitors in the EEA, United Kingdom and Switzerland
Visitors in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom and Switzerland may be subject to additional consent requirements for cookies, local storage, personal data processing and advertising.
Where required, visitors should be given clear information and a meaningful choice before non essential technologies are used. Their choices must be respected and transmitted to relevant advertising partners through the implemented consent solution.
Google requires publishers serving personalized ads to users in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland to use a CMP certified by Google and integrated with the IAB Europe Transparency and Consent Framework (TCF). Requirements and available options may change; publishers should consult Google's current guidance.
Official information: Google consent management requirements for publishers.
A statement in this policy does not prove that a certified CMP has been installed or correctly configured. The website operator must verify the actual consent banner, its settings and the signals sent to Google.
10. Third Party Services
The website may rely on third party providers for hosting, security, analytics, advertising, reviews or other functions. These providers may process information under their own privacy policies and terms.
- Google: analytics and advertising services, if enabled. Google Privacy Policy.
- Trustpilot: Our website uses an embedded Trustpilot widget to display customer reviews and related review content. Trustpilot may process technical information when visitors interact with or load the widget. Trustpilot End-User Privacy Terms.
- Website hosting provider: hosting, delivery, maintenance and potentially security or server-log processing. Consult the provider's privacy documentation for details.
The third party services described above may change as the website evolves. This Privacy Policy will be updated when material changes affect the services used or the way information is processed.
11. Sharing and Disclosure of Information
We do not describe personal information as being sold unless that is actually part of our practices. Information may be disclosed to service providers that help operate the website, including hosting, security, analytics or advertising providers, where applicable.
Information may also be disclosed where required by law, in response to valid legal requests, to protect the rights and security of the website or others, or in connection with a business transfer where permitted by applicable law.
12. International Data Transfers
Some service providers may process information in countries other than the country in which a visitor is located. Those countries may have different data protection laws.
Where applicable data protection law requires safeguards for international transfers, the responsible parties should use an appropriate transfer mechanism, such as an adequacy decision or appropriate contractual safeguards.
The actual locations and transfer mechanisms depend on the hosting, analytics and advertising providers configured for the website.
13. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures intended to protect information processed through the website against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure or destruction.
No website or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Third party providers are responsible for the security measures applicable to the services they operate.
14. Data Retention
Information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law.
Retention periods may depend on the type of information, the purpose of processing, security requirements, legal obligations and the configuration of the relevant service provider.
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the purpose for which it is processed. Server logs are retained according to the hosting provider's configuration. Analytics information is retained according to the settings and retention policies of Google Analytics. Diagnostic information, where collected, is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for its intended purpose.
We periodically review our data retention practices and delete or anonymize information when it is no longer needed, subject to applicable legal and security requirements.
15. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights concerning your personal information. These may include:
- The right to request access to personal information.
- The right to request correction of inaccurate information.
- The right to request deletion in applicable circumstances.
- The right to request restriction of processing in applicable circumstances.
- The right to object to certain processing activities.

16. European Privacy Rights (GDPR)
If the GDPR applies to the processing of your personal information, you may have the rights described above, subject to the conditions and exceptions set out in the law.
Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw consent. Where processing is based on legitimate interests, you may have the right to object. You may also have the right to complain to your relevant supervisory authority.
17. California Privacy Rights
California residents may have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA/CPRA), where the law applies to the website operator and the relevant processing.
These rights may include the right to know/access, correct or delete certain personal information, and the right to opt out of certain sales or sharing of personal information, where applicable.
If the website engages in activities that qualify as a sale or sharing under California law, the operator must provide the legally required notice and opt-out mechanism. This policy does not claim that the website does or does not engage in such activities without a review of its actual advertising and data practices.
18. Children's Privacy
The website is intended for a general audience and is not designed to knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through its standard diagnostic tools.
If you believe that a child has submitted personal information to us, please contact us. If we determine that personal information was collected in a manner that requires action under applicable law, we will take appropriate steps.
19. External Links
The website may contain links to third party websites. We do not control those websites and are not responsible for their content, security or privacy practices. Review the privacy policy of each external website you visit.
20. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes to the website, the services we use, our data practices or applicable legal requirements. The date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was most recently updated.
