Waze heeft ook zo z'n nadelen: (dit is Waze for Android)
Other data that Waze grants themselves the right to collect on you includes:
Your GPS location and driving routes. Of course, some of this is needed to deliver the services described, however it does not need to be stored indefinitely. Waze’s privacy policy states that this information will be used to “create a detailed location history of all the journeys you have made”. The question, of course, is “for whom, exactly?”.
Your home, work, and favorite destinations (as you assign within the application).
All of your chat messages with other Waze users
All queries you make to Waze
All of your calendar information
All of the phone numbers stored on your device’s phone book; in other words, selling out all of your friends to Google.
Your own phone number
Any personally identifiable information you add in your profile (such as your name, gender, photos). Some fields are specifically made mandatory in order to use Waze.
Information from your other social network accounts (explained later).
Information from_all_ mobile devices you’ve ever linked to your account
Meta-data about you: how long you use Waze, information about your device, web pages that you visit within Waze, everything that you read in Waze, advertisements that you view or click on, your_communications with other users and third parties_, your IP address and domain, and the geolocation of the device you log in from.
Any personal information that comes out of emails you use to contact them; for example, if you sign your emails with a signature line containing your phone number and place of business, Waze gets to use that information.
In elk geval iets om over na te denken. Waze is niet de enige die dit soort zaken doet natuurlijk.
