Privacy labels are a starting point

App privacy labels summarize developer disclosures, but they are not a full audit. Treat them as a map of what to inspect next: identifiers, usage data, location, contacts, diagnostics, and whether data may be linked to you.

隐私标签只是起点

App 隐私标签是开发者披露信息的摘要,但不是完整审计。你可以把它当作下一步检查地图:标识符、使用数据、位置、联系人、诊断信息,以及数据是否会与你关联。

Match permissions to purpose

A camera app needs camera access; a calculator usually does not need contacts or precise location. Permission requests should match the feature you are using at that moment, not appear as a blanket demand on first launch.

权限应匹配功能目的

相机应用需要相机权限,计算器通常不需要通讯录或精确位置。权限请求应与当前正在使用的功能匹配,而不是首次启动就一次性索要全部权限。

Review linked data

Data linked to you can be more sensitive than anonymous diagnostics. If an app collects identifiers, purchase history, location, or contact info, check whether the feature genuinely requires that data.

重点查看关联到你的数据

与个人关联的数据通常比匿名诊断更敏感。如果应用收集标识符、购买历史、位置或联系人信息,请判断该功能是否真的需要这些数据。

Revisit settings later

Permissions can be changed after installation. Review iOS Settings for location, photos, microphone, camera, tracking, notifications, and background refresh after you understand what the app actually does.

安装后也要回看设置

权限可以在安装后调整。了解应用真实用途后,建议回到 iOS 设置中检查位置、照片、麦克风、相机、跟踪、通知和后台刷新。
