For the interactive version of the software, the software does not monitor anything on someone's computer when they're on a break or when they're not working. So even people working from home can be comfortable knowing that they are not being monitored during their own time. Our position on privacy is that a company has the right to know what employees are doing during work hours, and have no right at all to know what they're doing during breaks or after working.
