Learn about trends in data collection and helpful tools to make your online life more private. Online privacy is a big deal in our personal lives, and it is important to understand how information is collected and used by tech companies and scammers alike. At the same time, we don’t have time to read long and ever-changing privacy policies or block our number from the barrage of solicitations. So how can you practically address privacy concerns in your life? In addition to sharing helpful tips and hands-on examples, we will share ways to keep you and your family safe from online scams.
