Security
Last updated: October 30, 2026
If you think you have found a security problem in this website or in one of our Windows apps, please tell us privately first so we can fix it before it is used against anyone.
How to report
Email contact@mytechnician.tech with “Security” in the subject. Please include:
- the affected page or app, and the app version (Settings in the app, or the Microsoft Store listing)
- your Windows version, if the issue is in an app
- steps to reproduce it, and what an attacker could do with it
- whether you would like to be credited, and under what name
What to expect
We aim to acknowledge reports within five business days and to keep you updated until the issue is fixed. Once it is fixed, we are happy to credit you here if you want to be named. We do not currently run a paid bug bounty.
Please don't
- access, change, or delete data that is not yours
- run denial-of-service or load tests against the website
- use social engineering or phishing against us or our users
- publish details before we have had a reasonable chance to fix the issue
We will not take legal action against anyone who reports a vulnerability in good faith and follows these guidelines.
Out of scope
Microsoft Store purchases, payments, and downloads are handled by Microsoft. Report problems with those to Microsoft. Ads on this site are served by Google AdSense; report a malicious ad to us and we will block it.
