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

  1. List your apps

    List the apps and sites you use most.

  2. Check permissions

    For each, review what data and permissions it has — like the Data Trail lab.

  3. Find the over-sharing

    Flag every permission an app does not truly need.

  4. 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

  • Apps and their permissions were reviewed.
  • Unnecessary permissions were identified.
  • At least one setting was changed for the better.
