Google delayed adding the labels for so long that its apps went more than two months without being updated.
Many of Google's major apps did not start getting privacy labels until late in February, even though Apple's rule went into effect in December. Most people are likely not surprised at the extent of the data that Google collects, but having it in one spot in the App Store is a stark reminder.
Google's own marketing data includes all of the above information along with contact info and device identifiers, plus there's even more data collected for analytics, app functionality, and product personalization.ĭuckDuckGo claims that Google "wanted to hide" the information that it collects, which is why Google took so long to roll out support for App Privacy labels. For third-party advertising purposes, Google collects data that includes location, search history, and browsing history. Google recently added App Privacy labels to its Google Search app, spelling out the extent of information that's collected. Spying on users has nothing to do with building a great web browser or search engine. After months of stalling, Google finally revealed how much personal data they collect in Chrome and the Google app.
