Decoding Privacy Policies: What Companies Know About You

Privacy policies are the guardians of your personal information - but who's guarding the guardians? With data breaches and privacy concerns making headlines, understanding how companies handle your data has never been more crucial. Here's where EzyTz steps in.

Success Story

Meet John, a privacy-conscious user: "I was signing up for a new fitness app. EzyTz flagged that the app would share my health data with insurance companies. This wasn't prominently displayed in their marketing materials, but it was buried in their privacy policy. Thanks to EzyTz, I found an alternative app that better protected my privacy."
