Would you be concerned if perfect strangers could track who you speak with, where you are and what you’re doing? If you have a smartphone or tablet, you're probably already sharing that information with the developers of the apps you have loaded.
To run effectively, many apps need personal information. For instance, Instagram needs to access your photos. Foursquare needs access to your location. But what about the not so obvious permissions you've granted developers? And what about those lesser-known developers and apps you have on your device? What are they doing with your personal data?
Find out which permissions your Android and iOS (iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch) devices grant developers, which permission should concern you and how to revoke those permissions so YOU stay in control of your privacy.
