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.
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.

02Limit location permission for this app
- How

- How
- Open the app’s privacy or consent menu and choose Reject.

04Review a recipient’s privacy information
- How
- Open recipient profiles for links to their privacy notices and opt-out pages.
- Expected effect

06Request another scan after changing a setting
