Privacy Basics on Facebook

Even when parents take practical steps to limit the information they and their children publicly share online, they may not be aware of the magnitude of information that apps and websites can collect from children. Now parents can check out what type of information is collected by many game apps at PrivacyGrade.org. For example, the popular app Fruit Ninja, a free fruit-slicing game, collects information about a user’s location, phone number and the phone’s unique identification code, apparently for the purposes of tailoring ads to users. The app received a D grade for privacy.
