Automatic hiding of data

Privacy Protection is available only with the premium version of Kaspersky Internet Security on devices with an inserted SIM card.

To manage Privacy Protection (view text messages and calls from hidden contacts, configure settings), you have to disable data hiding. When you are done managing Privacy Protection, you have to enable data hiding again. You can configure data hiding to be enabled automatically after a certain amount of time elapses after you are done managing Privacy Protection (after the device switches to power saving mode).

To enable automatic launch of Privacy Protection:

  1. On the quick launch panel in the main window of Kaspersky Internet Security, tap Settings > Privacy Protection
  2. Enter the secret code.

    If you forget the secret code, you can recover it.

  3. Flip the Privacy Protection toggle switch to off.
  4. Tap Settings.
  5. Select the time after which automatic hiding of data should be enabled. Do so by selecting a value for the Automatic hiding setting.

When data hiding is disabled, the app automatically enables it when the specified amount of time has elapsed after the device switched to power saving mode.
