 +The Plagius uses Internet search engines to perform the analyzes, fragments (7-13 words, usually) of the analyzed texts are sent to these search engines. These fragments are randomly extracted from the text, and the search engine is also chosen randomly. Thus, the search engines only receive parts of the text in a disconnected way. We cannot guarantee that these search engines do not store the text of searches performed.
 +
 +If there is sensitive data that remains relevant even in pieces of 7 to 13 words and that even search engines cannot receive it, the Plagius should not be used for internet searches.
