AVG is owned by Gen Digital Inc. (often referred to as Gen™), which resulted from the merger of Avast and NortonLifeLock (previously known as Symantec) in 2022. Originally, AVG Technologies was acquired by Avast in 2016, and Avast itself became part of Gen Digital in 2022, bringing AVG under Gen Digital’s control[1][5][6].
The brand continues to operate under the AVG name, with its software products developed and managed by Avast, a subsidiary of Gen Digital[1][3][5]. The official data controller of customer data is Avast Software s.r.o., headquartered in Prague, Czech Republic[6].
