1] Accessing Information :-
Chinese apps that widely used in India are seeking excessive information from customers, according to an independent study by an information security firm, stoking privacy concerns among experts. - Why are they making collection of our information ?
2] Non-Relevant Permissions :-
Most Famous Chinese apps like Helo, Shareit as well as UC Browser, ask user to provide access to camera and microphone on their smartphones even such access is not required.
3] Why Precise Location :-
UC browser asks for location that is precise point from where a person is searching for information. I understand that Uber or Swiggy ( Food Delivery Apps) needs to know because offers a service.
- Why does UC Browser need to know the Location for Searching ?
4] Sharing Information :-
The Study, commissioned by The Economic Times, reviewed the permission sought and data shared by these type of apps to around seven outside agencies, with 69% of the data being transferred to the US.
- TikTok sends data to China Telecom, Vigo video to Tencent and UC Browser to its parent owned by Alibaba.
Thank You.....!
