About Serif WebPlus Toolbar?

The Serif WebPlus Toolbar is a web browser plugin developed by Conduit (Community OurToolbar) designed for use with Internet Explorer, Chrome, and Firefox. This toolbar is capable of collecting and storing information about users' web browsing habits, which is then used to suggest services or provide targeted advertising through the toolbar. It is important for users to exercise caution during the installation process, as the toolbar may attempt to modify the home page and search provider settings. Should these settings be altered, the user will need to manually revert them back to their original state if they decide to uninstall the toolbar. It is also worth noting that the toolbar may automatically download and install updates without providing the user with prior notification. As outlined in the License Agreement, the application is capable of collecting and storing information about web browsing locally on the user's device. This information is used to make general inferences that can help suggest relevant services or provide targeted ads. These inferences are sent from the application to the servers operated by Conduit.
