Data minimisation
In Turkish: Veri minimizasyonu
The habit of sharing and keeping only the data that is really needed, because data that is not collected cannot leak.
Every account and form is a place your data can leak from. If a service only needs an email, do not give a phone number; if a shop does not need your birthday, leave it blank. Fewer details also means a smaller profile for brokers.
The same idea applies to old things: delete what you do not use, such as old accounts, apps, exports and downloads.
What to do
- Leave optional form fields empty.
- Use a separate email address for shops and sign-ups.
- Close accounts you have not used for a year.
