Most antidetect browsers offer a powerful multi-accounting tool, but can they keep your data secure?

At AdsPower, we understand the potential threats and have implemented a multi-layered security approach. In this article, we'll address your concerns head-on, diving into AdsPower's data security practices, exploring the threats and how we keep your information safe.

AdsPower's Data Security Approach

AdsPower team prioritizes user privacy. We understand you don't want us to collect unnecessary data. That's why we focus on minimal data collection and put you in control.

User Control Over Data Storage

While we don't actively collect data, we do offer an optional data synchronization feature. This cloud storage allows you to access your data conveniently from any device and share data securely with team members (great for collaboration!).



You Decide:

The choice is yours. Enable data synchronization for these benefits, or keep your data entirely on your device. We empower you to choose how you manage your information, and you can even delete your cloud data anytime.

Data Encryption: An Extra Layer of Security

For an extra layer of protection, AdsPower utilizes encryption during data transmission and storage. This means your data is scrambled into a code that only authorized users can access. Even if someone were to intercept your data, they wouldn't be able to decipher it without the encryption key. This ensures your information remains secure and inaccessible to unauthorized parties.

AdsPower Extensions Security


Trusted Source for Extensions

We offer extensions exclusively from the secure Chrome Web Store, which undergoes a rigorous vetting process to ensure their safety. This means you can be confident these extensions are trustworthy additions to your AdsPower experience.



Please note, we do not provide active updates for extensions. Instead, users must update them manually if a new version is required. We believe that this way, users maintain control over their data and decide when and how to update their extensions.

User-Uploaded Extensions

For specialized needs, AdsPower allows uploading your own ZIP files. However, we emphasize caution with user-uploaded plugins. Unlike those from the Chrome Web Store, these lack our vetting process and might pose security risks. We recommend using this option judiciously and only from trusted sources.



Managing Permissions in AdsPower

AdsPower gives you control over team access. You can set permissions for each member, dictating what profiles and features they can use.



You are also allowed to assign different profile groups to sub-members. Organize your profiles into logical groups (e.g., social media, marketing platforms) for easier access control. You can then assign specific groups to each team member, ensuring they only see and manage relevant profiles. Simply go to the Members section and edit the group authorization any time you wish.






Maintain complete transparency and accountability within your team with detailed Action logs. These logs track all actions by team members, including the IP addresses they used.



Detailed Logs allow you to detect suspicious activity early. Unusual login attempts or access patterns from unrecognized locations can be red flags. Early detection helps prevent potential security breaches.

Best Practices for AdsPower Users

Your data security is our priority. But there's always more you can do to fortify your accounts. Here are some best practices to keep your information extra secure:

Fortress Fundamentals:

  • Strong Passwords: This is the first line of defense. Use a complex password with a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Avoid using easily guessable information like birthdays or pet names.

  • Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Enable 2FA for an extra layer of protection. This requires a code from your phone in addition to your password when logging in, making unauthorized access significantly harder. Set up 2FA using authenticator, email address, or SMS.



AdsPower's Security Features:

  • Remote Login Reminder : Activate these prompts to receive notifications whenever someone tries to access your AdsPower account from a new device. This helps you stay informed and identify potential unauthorized login attempts.

  • Failed Login Attempt Alert: Be notified if suspicious login activity is detected, such as attempts from unrecognized locations. This allows you to take immediate action to secure your account.

  • AdsPower allows you to set your own Login IP Allowlist, giving you control over which IP addresses can access your account.



  • Active Sessions: This section provides session information including the IP address, location, device type and last active login. If you've forgotten to log out your account on a shared device or notice any suspicious activity, you can revoke any active sessions.



Beyond AdsPower:

  • Beware of Phishing Links: Don't click on suspicious links or attachments in emails, even if they appear to be from AdsPower. Phishing scams can try to steal your login credentials.

  • Software Updates: Keep your operating system and AdsPower software up-to-date. Updates often include security patches that address vulnerabilities.

By combining our security features with your vigilance through best practices, we can create a safe and secure AdsPower experience for everyone. And if you ever have any questions, our friendly support team is always happy to help!
