Photodon® Privacy Filters
Share only what you want while keeping your sensitive information private!
Screen privacy for monitors, a must-have for medical facilities,
financial institutions, governmental offices, testing facilities,
or anywhere that information needs to be protected.
Privacy filters, also known as computer privacy screens, increase screen information security by reducing screen visibility. This is accomplished by mini louvers Small Horizontal Slats embedded in the material that start to reduce screen viewing at approximately 30 degrees and turn the screen nearly black at angles greater than 45 degrees. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and other privacy policies require businesses to protect personal information from the public or other non-essential personnel. Photodon Touché™ Brand Privacy Filters are trusted to ensure that your data is not subject to snooping.

The Differences Explained
- 2-Way vs. 4-Way Privacy: 2-Way Privacy offers reduced screen viewing in two directions, most often left and right. 4-Way Privacy offers reduced screen viewing in four directions: left, right, top and bottom.
- Adhesion: P2L/XLP Privacy Filters use clear double-sided adhesive strips for extremely simple installation and removal. If you plan to remove the privacy filter and use it later, P2L/XLP can be removed and reinstalled multiple times. P2S and P4S, on the other hand, adhere using a full silicone backer of the same type used on our clear and anti-glare materials. With careful application, the result is more permanent and can look cleaner. This method of installation is ideal for public areas, or when a "built in" look is desired. P2S and P4S are easy to remove by slowly peeling them off the device. All adhesive methods leave no residue when filter is removed.
- Dimensions: All Photodon Touché™ Brand Privacy Filter Materials are limited to manufactured sheet sizes as indicated in the table above. If needed, we can create privacy filters for screens larger than the maximum dimensions by making a multi-piece filter. It should be noted, however, that because privacy filters begin to reduce screen viewing at 30 degrees, they can cause shadows or blackouts on the edges of a very large display depending on how it is viewed.
