Tips to Update These TikTok Privacy Settings Now |
TikTok and other companies use more than just information about your friends and family for their targeted ad campaigns.
You might not realize it, but TikTok has code spread all over the internet on websites and apps to collect data about things you do when you're not on the app. There's nothing you can do to stop that entirely, but you can use a setting to control whether TikTok can use that data for targeted ads. And that's a good idea to protect your privacy.
And to protect yourself from hackers-not only on TikTok but on other apps as well-CR says one of the most important things you can do is set up multifactor authentication. That's when you're sent a code through a text or an email when using an app. So you need not only your password but also access to your phone or your email account to get in.Consumer Reports says although these settings will help, you can never expect total privacy when using social media.
