No. Key logging is not illegal. It is illegal to tamper with someone elses computer, and illegal to use passwords and such that you may learn from key logging. But you can log keystrokes and other activity on your own computer all you want. See www.ferrethq.com

Using keyloggers without authorization is illegal in many jurisdictions, as it can be considered a form of unauthorized access or hacking. It is important to always obtain explicit consent before using any monitoring software, including keyloggers, on any device.

What is a keylogger?

Keylogger (also called keystroke logger) is a program on your computer or mobile that logs the keystrokes you type. There are two types: hardware keyloggers and software keyloggers. When we talk about keyloggers, we usually refer to software keylogger. Some software keyloggers are bundled with other programs, which can help themselves be installed to the computer without people knowing. They are spyware and dangerous for online personal information. Some other software keyloggers are independent applications which need manually installation and even admin password to install onto your computer. They are normally used as parental monitoring software or employee monitoring software.
