Description

You’re balanced and cautious. You walk the line between convenience and security. You understand the importance of privacy and take essential measures to protect it, without going to extremes. This practical mindset helps you navigate the digital world responsibly.

Possible Pitfalls

Although your understanding of the online world is well-rounded, you have some blind spots and can underestimate the extent to which your data can be misused. This can lead to instances in which you unwittingly leave the door to your private life open. For example, you may forget to update the versions and settings of some devices and accounts, limiting the extent to which you can defend your information from prying eyes.

Privacy Strategies

Strive to more diligently update devices and software to the latest versions and review privacy settings more regularly. To stay informed, read an article or two on privacy to keep yourself abreast of the latest developments, such as new data protection laws, pending lawsuits, or data breaches.
