The marketing company URL Genius has conducted a study that reveals TikTok and YouTube as the biggest culprits when it comes to sharing your data with third parties.

Uses iOS feature for mapping

Of the 14 domains the two companies are in contact with regarding your data, 13 of these must be third parties.

The study is said to have included ten very popular apps: YouTube, TikTok, Twitter, Telegram, LinkedIn, Intsagram, Snapchat, Facebook, WhatsApp and Messenger. URL Genius should have received their information from the app activity function in iOS, where they have mapped how many domains each of these apps has been involved with.

The average should have been on six domains, while TikTok and YouTube had 14 each.

TikTok worst

It is the content of the 14 domains that allows TikTok to "celebrate" as number one on the list: while YouTube as expected mostly has contact with Google's services to show you relevant ads, TikTok in 13 of the 14 cases must have been in contact with unknown third parties.

IDG writes that it is unclear which third parties these are, what kind of information they collect and what their purpose is.

 

 

“Ingen deler dataen din så mye som TikTok”

Markedsføringsselskapet URL Genius har foretatt en studie som avslører TikTok og YouTube som de største synderne når det gjelder å dele dataen din med tredjeparter.

Bruker iOS-funksjon for kartlegging

Av 14 domener de to selskapene er i kontakt med angående dataen din så skal 13 av disse være tredjeparter.

Studiet skal ha omfattet ti svært populære apps: YouTube, TikTok, Twitter, Telegram, LinkedIn, Intsagram, Snapchat, Facebook, WhatsApp og Messenger. URL Genius skal ha fått informasjonen sin fra appaktivitetsfunksjonen i iOS, der de har kartlagt hvor mange domener hver av disse appene har vært involvert med.

Snittet skal ha vært på seks domener, mens TikTok og YouTube hadde 14 hver.

TikTok verst

Det er innholdet i de 14 domenene som gjør at TikTok kan “feire” som nummer én på listen: mens YouTube som forventet stort sett har kontakt med Googles tjenester for å vise deg relevante annonser så skal TikTok i 13 av de 14 tilfellene ha vært i kontakt med ukjente tredjeparter.

IDG skriver at det er uklart hvilke tredjeparter disse er, hva slags informasjon de samler inn og hva hensikten med det er.
