Automatic data hiding

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

You have to disable data hiding to manage confidential contacts (for example, to view calls and text messages from confidential contacts) and configure Privacy Protection settings. When you have finished managing confidential contacts, you must enable data hiding again. You can enable automatic data hiding when a certain amount of time has elapsed after you have finished managing confidential contacts (after the device has switched to Power Saving mode).

To enable automatic data hiding:

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

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

  3. Toggle the Privacy Protection switch to OFF.
  4. Tap Settings > Privacy Protection > Advanced settings.
  5. Select the time after which automatic data hiding must 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.
