1. Don’t rush when downloading new apps
Before installing an unverified application, make sure to weigh the pros and cons carefully.
Ask yourself: Do you really need this app? Is it from a trusted source or does it have positive reviews from other users?
Official app stores are always a safer choice compared to suspicious websites or unknown platforms.
2. Learn your privacy rights as an internet user
Every country has laws that regulate user rights and personal data processing.
In Indonesia, this regulation is known as the Personal Data Protection Law. Users must understand their rights, including the right to access, modify, delete, or withdraw their personal data.
It’s also important to read the privacy policy of any app you use and ensure they respect your rights while collecting only relevant and necessary data.
3. Avoid oversharing your personal information
The more data you provide to an app, the higher the risk of that information being leaked or misused.
Limit app access to your personal data—such as photos, contacts, location, or microphone—unless it’s essential for the app’s functionality.
Also, make sure to delete or deactivate apps you no longer use, so your data isn’t stored unnecessarily.
