From the etrecheck website:
Uninstall:
To uninstall EtreCheckPro, just drag it to the Trash.
EtreCheckPro saves all generated reports automatically. To delete these, select Previous reports from the File menu. This will open a Finder window showing all previous reports. Drag these files to the Trash to clear this history. If you have purchased the Power User package, EtreCheckPro will save your activation code in your Login Keychain under com.etresoft.EtreCheckPro. Any other files associated with EtreCheckPro will have been created by the operating system itself and should not be deleted.
Not sure about an Apple, but I'm sure on a PC there's a utility you can install BEFORE a program in question is installed, and it will watch everything it adds, and let you remove it properly.
Apple has its own in-built safety mechanisms but they are unlikely to be completely foolproof!
Here's a warning from a well known security company:-
