Mobile app stores have plenty of free apps for download. From games to utilities, camera apps and more, they entice us with functionality for free. However, you don’t get anything for nothing. Free apps often include requests to access your personal data, your files and usage statistics.

There will also be disclaimers making clear that your data will be shared in hundreds of advertising agencies. Here is the point: Read everything that relates to the app before installing. This does not mean you have to go through a 100-page privacy policy. Most of what you need is written within the description, requests for access and other easily accessible information.

Remember, once your data has been sold onto 100’s of advertising agencies, finding out how has what, what they’re doing with it and then removing your data becomes a real challenge.

The Dayta app looks to simplify things for you so that you don’t have to worry. Find out who has your data and manage that access as you want. In fact, there may be some opportunities out there to make some money in partnership with various advertising agencies.

Register your interest in the upcoming Dayta crowdsale and help us protect your personal information.
