PokerTracker

Hi,

I want to be sure, that nobody can read my hand histories if my pc is stolen.
My question is, whether the hands in postgre sql are encrypted or whether PT has an option for this?

If not do you have any idea to solve my problem without encrypting my whole hard disk?

Thanks

Your hand histories are stored in plain text and in plain text in PostgreSQL. We do not encrypt anything, and I would suspect that encrypting your whole hard drive would cause PostgreSQL performance to plummet (I don't know if it would render things unusable but it would slow everything down).

ok, but can I remove the folder with the processed hand histories, or does PT still need them?

Once they're processed they're no longer needed by PokerTracker, however you may want to zip them up and store them for backup reasons (text compresses very well).
