Recommended actions

Each action states its expected effect and what remains uncertain. None of these was verified by a re-test unless the report says so.

  1. 01Delete or disable your Android advertising ID

    How
    Settings → Privacy → Ads → Delete advertising ID.
    Expected effect
    Apps receive a zeroed ID instead of a stable one.
    Uncertainty
    Other identifiers, such as installation IDs, are unaffected.

  2. 02Limit location permission for this app

    How
    Settings → Apps → Pebble Drop Saga → Permissions → Location → Don’t allow.
    Expected effect
    The app can’t read device location. Server-side IP-based location may still occur.
    Uncertainty
    Behavior with permission denied was not tested.

  3. 03Reject optional data use in the app’s privacy menu

    How
    Open the app’s privacy or consent menu and choose Reject.
    Expected effect
    In testing, fewer recipients were contacted after rejection.
    Uncertainty
    Some recipients were still contacted. Withdrawal after earlier acceptance was not tested.
  4. 04Review a recipient’s privacy information

    How
    Open recipient profiles for links to their privacy notices and opt-out pages.
    Expected effect
    Some recipients offer their own opt-out or deletion process.
    Uncertainty
    Opt-out scope varies by company and jurisdiction.
  5. 05Compare alternatives

    How
    Compare this product with others in the same category.
    Expected effect
    Shows products with fewer observed recipients under similar conditions.
    Uncertainty
    Only compare reports with similar coverage and methods.
  6. 06Request another scan after changing a setting

    How
    Submit the product again and note which setting you changed.
    Expected effect
    A new scan can show whether the setting changed observed behavior.
    Uncertainty
    Lab capacity for apps and devices is limited; website scans are faster.
