Your Privacy Audit
Audit your own apps and shrink your data trail.
Your mission
Audit the apps you use, find where you are sharing more data than needed, and tighten your settings.
What you'll need
- Your devices, with a grown-up's permission
- A checklist or document
- The Your Data Trail lab for ideas
Your step-by-step plan
List your apps
List the apps and sites you use most.
Check permissions
For each, review what data and permissions it has — like the Data Trail lab.
Find the over-sharing
Flag every permission an app does not truly need.
Tighten up
Turn off unnecessary permissions and record what you changed.
Make it yours
- Compare two similar apps' privacy choices.
- Write a short privacy starter guide for a friend.
How you'll know you succeeded

- Unnecessary permissions were identified.
- At least one setting was changed for the better.
