McAfee Corp. announced a five-year partnership with Acer, one of the world's top consumer electronics companies, to provide Acer customers with a single solution to protect their personal info, privacy, and devices.

With this installation, users can access a 30-day complimentary trial allowing for a secure experience on their new device.
According to McAfee's 2022 Consumer Research, consumers value privacy and identity protection just as much as the need for malware and device protection – 85% of consumers want to protect their devices, and 84% of consumers want to take back control of their data online. This partnership offers consumers a complimentary trial of antivirus, privacy, and identity monitoring to help keep consumers safe against viruses, malware, spyware and ransomware attacks. Additionally, it helps keep customers safe from identity theft by monitoring their personal data on the dark web and protecting their privacy with automated Secure VPN. Beginning April 2023, Acer consumer PC customers globally will have McAfee software pre-installed on their new devices and can take advantage of a complimentary 30-day trial. The McAfee LiveSafe trial supplies a combination of antivirus, privacy, and identity tools and features built to help keep people safe, so they can focus on what matters.
