Life is short. Eat cookies \u2013 don\u2019t spend your time deleting them. <\/em><\/p>\n

Privacy is as fragile as a chocolate-chip cookie. And if you are like most people, you\u2019d rather enjoy the taste experience as you dunk that hot cookie into some fresh milk then slowly nibble your way through \u2013 without worrying about cleaning up all those delicious crumbs left behind.<\/p>\n

And the bad news for the digital type: Someone will find them and use them as evidence against you.<\/p>\n

Once you go online, you also leave a trail of digital crumbs behind that say a lot about you as an individual, your private activities, and where you do them. Trackers are following each online activity, devices are monitoring your geolocation, and social media is remembering far more than it should. Unlike those chocolate chip ones, these crumbs are spread out over more locations, can be harder to see, and \u2013 most importantly \u2013 have a more negative impact on your privacy.<\/p>\n

How do you manage your digital crumbs?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Most people deal with their digital crumbs like the cookie ones: The hands-on way with a vacuum cleaner. When they clean up, according to Statista data<\/a> they manually delete the browser history (71% of respondents), they then go on to delete cookies (67%), and finish off by emptying the browser cache (61%). While this is a start, it doesn\u2019t go very far. It\u2019s inconvenient and it\u2019s not very informative.<\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t tell you what your device \u2013 its OS and each individual app \u2013 is saying about you. It just cleans up the known privacy issues and lets you go on your way \u2013 leaving more than 200 privacy issues untouched.<\/p>\n
