It’s so easy to add every piece of your personal information on Google and its numerous applications. Have you ever wondered how much the company keeps data about you?
Here are some information stored:
1. Location
Everytime folks put on their location on a device that is signed in to an application especially Google Maps, the spot is stored like this
2. Search History
Whatever anyone looks for on Google either on a phone or desktop is saved on a different database across all devices as long as one signs into the platform. You can find your activity on the search engine here
3. Your weight
People tend to use Google Ads settings to table the kind of ads they see. However this data including weight is stored for other purposes.
4. Age, Gender, Career, Hobby and Relationship status
On a Google profile, if one adds details about their age, gender, career, hobby or relationship status to the platform, the company stores that information as well.
5. Who you interact with
We found that when anyone gives an application access to their Google account, the company saves what kind of data the application has access to. It keeps what one uses it for, who one interacts with even what time one says goodnight to the person.
6. Music you listen to, books you’ve bought and files downloaded
Google knows what music, books and files folks ever come across because the company archives data on purchases all the time.
7. The movies you watched
The company stores all YouTube history. So it definitely knows the kind of movies one watches, if the videos are religious, political, science fiction and ….
8. Photos and online stores you’ve visited
Folks create archives of their data on one’s photos, online stores, contacts and emails on Google Drive. Google helps save this information for users.
9. Events ever attended
Google Calendar can tell which event attended, cancelled, what time event will hold and so much more.
10. Fitness history
Google Fit is another application that can track health and fitness activity. It stores data on weight, height, calories and other progress reports.
Not to make you feel so uncomfortable or anything but you may need to think about the kind of information you let go of on every platform not just Google.
