What does the app want? — Privacy · Media Detective
A free invented torch app asks for permissions. Help Nes decide which to allow. Media Detective game on MyLeoNes for ages 10–17; fictional cases.
Your task
Choose what to do at each step.
- Apps should only ask for what they need to work. A torch needs the light, not your contacts.
- Every person, site, post and brand in this case is invented — a training simulation.
Score
- Find the leaks — You found what gives away too much.
- Keep the fun — You stayed safe without hiding everything.
- Protect your data — Your private data stayed private.
In real life
The GDPR's 'data minimisation' principle says services should collect only the data they need. Phone settings let you review permissions anytime.
Privacy
Every case is fictional: no real people, brands or schools. Nothing about you is collected — your progress stays on this device.
