Whether you are in your home or at the office or anywhere else, you can’t spend a single day without the use of Google. Apps such as Google Maps, Youtube, Translate and many other apps have become parts of our daily routine. Can somebody imagine what would have had happened if there were no Google? But there are things about you, personal things which Google knows and if they come out in the open they can harm you. Here’s a list of personal information Google knows about you.
Metro Route
Google Maps tracks your location and knows where you are. The GPS in your device is connected to your IP Address. To track you it can also use nearby Towers and Wifi Access Points. Even though your information does not come out who knows if Google is selling your information to other companies.
Debit and Credit Card Details
If you perform any transactions online you might get a notification in your browser to save your card details. Google Play does not only have information about your debit and credit cards but also has information about what products you are buying on sites like Amazon and Flipkart. That is why whenever you search about a product on a site, sometime later you might start seeing an ad of the same product in your browser.
This is all because Google knows your recommendation and stores this data.
Youtube Videos
Not everything that Google does is harmful. Google records what type of videos you like to watch. For eg., if you like watching Tech videos then Google will present to you on your home screen Tech videos of good creators. This is one of the best features of Google algorithms which many companies want to apply.
Scans Email
Google also scans your e-mail. Based on the content of your email it customizes the Ad and sends it to you.
Well, this was a small list of personal information Google knows about you which you should be aware of. Hope you liked the article. If you did, please share it among your friends.
