Gateway Privacy

Computle Gateway acts as a network tunnel enabling you to access your company resources. By default, Computle Gateway does not monitor, collect, or log data sent to network resources outside of your company resources. When you are not using Computle Gateway you are free to disconnect the client. However, during normal use, your internet and network traffic is routed to your home/office router.
