Investigation Brief
Windson Payroll operates a subscription-based HR and payroll management platform. The domain is over six years old, lists verifiable Indian contact details, and currently shows no active threats. However, a historical antivirus report flagged phishing detections, and the privacy policy discloses collection of biometric facial data for attendance tracking.
Current security posture versus historical detections
the browser threat feed reports no active threats and the site uses valid TLS encryption.
A saved antivirus aggregate from an earlier scan showed 13 detections, including phishing flags, though this observation is stale and should be verified with fresh scans.
Biometric data handling and contact transparency
The privacy policy states that facial biometric data is collected for identity verification and attendance tracking, converted to templates, and stored on company servers without third-party sharing.
The site provides its own-domain contact email and a listed Indian phone number, along with a physical address in Gujarat, which supports operator transparency.
Subscription-based service model
The site promotes HRMS and payroll software for SMEs through visible 'Subscribe Now' and 'Pricing' sections that lead to subscription plans.
Why the score is 72
The saved checks found no material threat, but the evidence was not strong enough for the highest Safe tier. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

Evidence behind this classification

Web research findings
Independent findings for windsonpayroll.com, including public complaints, named review sources, registration records, and look-alike-domain evidence. A missing result is shown as unverified, never converted into a clean bill of health.
No independently sourced scam reports or credibility records were found for windsonpayroll.com. That is common for new or low-traffic sites and does not clear the site.
