Life is too short to read Privacy policies. Or is it? The internet makes it easy to connect with service providers. You agree to pay for the service and then they provide it. However, most people don’t read these terms and have no idea what lies behind the thousands of words. What kind of data do these companies collect and what do they do? Remote work is here for the long-term
While the big companies may say so, small businesses will likely follow their lead. Facebook, Twitter, and Google all announced that their employees would be able to work remotely in 2020 or permanently. Recent social media polls showed that 67.74% of respondents said they wouldn’t return to work in 2020, even though lockdown restrictions have been lifted. We can thank technology for this opportunity to work remotely. All of this would have been impossible forty years ago. It was impossible to do this with thirty or twenty people. The internet and all its possibilities have made it irrelevant where we are. How? We have replaced face-to-face conversations with video calls, small talk in chat rooms, and managers with management platforms. All of this is great but it requires online products. Some are free and some cost money. The most expensive ticket is the one that most people don’t consider. Privacy, who?
“I have read and agreed to the terms and conditions” is correct. I went through a phase where I believed I understood these legal terms and rivers of words. They claim they respect your privacy but you don’t know how. Although they claim some data may be shared with third parties, you aren’t sure what data or third-party they are referring to. You may find additional links on some platforms. It seems that understanding all terms would take as much time to read and understand as a part-time job. What is all this third-party mumbo-jumbo stuff? I didn’t really know much about it. So here’s what I discovered:1st Party data – Information collected directly from customers or the audience (behaviors and actions, interests) across the website(s), app(s). This data is used to get to know the user and personalize the experience they have while using the product. So far, so good.
2nd party data is 1st party data that is purchased directly from another company. Companies build relationships with you and exchange information about your products to help them sell better. This is used to reach and get to know people they don’t have access too. This raises some concerns. Which companies sell the data they have about you? Who?
3rd party data: Some companies purchase 1st party information from other companies, then sort and categorize it and then resell it. Does that sound bad? It can sound terrible.
Intervention and danger
The governments stepped in. 2020 will bring us CCPA, while 2018 brought us GDPR. What does this mean? You should be able control and choose what information you want to share and, if it is not, have it deleted. Growth: Everything you need to know before you can grow your business
