Employees control their own tracking
Your team's trust is your biggest asset. Privacy Mode gives employees the power to pause monitoring during personal breaks — and gives managers full transparency into when and why.

Employee-Controlled Pause
Employees click one button to pause tracking. Screenshots stop, activity logging stops, and their manager sees a clear "Privacy Mode Active" status.
Mobile Kill Switch
The TheDeskMonitor mobile app includes a one-tap privacy kill switch. Perfect for field workers who need to handle personal calls or sensitive conversations.
Audit Trail of Pause Events
Every privacy mode activation is logged with a timestamp and duration. HR can review patterns and identify if the feature is being misused.
HR Transparency Dashboard
HR directors get a dedicated view showing average daily pause time per employee and team, helping identify overuse without calling anyone out individually.

- One-click pause from system tray or mobile app
