Lightning Savings

Lightning Savings is a browser plug-in which is supposed to enhance your experience on the Internet; however, shortly after installing the program, you may notice that Lightning Savings makes your browsing sessions less enjoyable. The browser plug-in is a shopping assistant; if a website has some special offers or deals, you are instantly informed about by pop-up coupons. Some other unrelated third-party advertisements are also displayed by Lightning Savings, and we recommend that you interact with those ads very carefully. In case you have installed this browser add-on by mistake, jump to the last section to learn how to remove it in no time.

Lightning Savings is an ad-supported free browser add-on, and it is owned by Innovative Apps, which is sometimes referred to as Engaging Apps or 215 Apps. This software developer is well-known for its identical programs, which are promoted on very similar websites. Moreover, similarly to adware programs which are installed surreptitiously, Lightning Savings, and other Innovative Apps programs, can be bundled with freeware and offered to you as an additional program. In order to prevent such occurrences, not only should you read the information displayed by the installer; you should also keep the computer protected against malware and spyware.

Once installed, the adware program starts monitoring you and displaying various advertisements. Lightning Savings records your search terms, clicks, impressions, browsing history, browser type, language settings, and other information that could be used to draw some conclusions about you browsing. The data gathered can be shared with third-parties, which are likely to use the information about you for marketing and advertising. Some personally identifiable information may also be collected by Lightning Savings. The risk of losing your personal information increases if you browse social networking websites or use your personal information and search terms.

As for randomly displayed advertisements, it is important to know that they can pop-up along with coupons and special offers when browsing Walmart, Amazon, kmart, eBay, Petsmart, and many other popular websites. Lightning Savings does not own those advertisements, including web banners, interstitial advertisements, coupons, and other pop-ups. All the advertisements delivered to you are your own responsibility because Lightning Savings does not endorse third-parties by displaying their offers. If you want to be secure on the Internet and protect your sensitive information, you should remove Lightning Savings from the computer as soon as you can.

Our team advises you to use a reputable spyware and malware removal tool even though it is possible to uninstall the program. However, your computer needs protection against computer threats; hence, we recommend using SpyHunter because it can easily remove Lightning Savings and shield the system from Trojan horses, browser hijackers, fake security programs, and many other threats.
