6 links that Google knows about you

Would you like to know what Google knows about you? Here are 6 links that will show you some of the data collected by Google.



1. Your Google profile



Google creates a profile with your basic data - age, gender, interests. This data is used to display relevant ads. You can view this information here:

')

www.google.com/ads/preferences



(approx. translation - in my case, Google does not shine with information. I am not on Google+, but on the websites I visited, Google was unable to determine my gender, and I determined my age to be 65+ years old).



2. The history of your movements



If you have an Android device, it can send your coordinates and speed to Google. You can view your travel history and output it to a file:



maps.google.com/locationhistory



(approx. transl. - I do not have such devices; you can admire the history of the reader's movements with reddit , who was engaged in pizza delivery)



3. Your Google Search History



Google can save your search history. In addition, it saves the history of the ads you clicked. All this is available here:



history.google.com



(approx. transl. - this feature must be enabled in your account)



4. List of devices accessing your account



If you are interested in whether someone else is using your account, you can see a list of all the devices that accessed it, their IP addresses and location:



security.google.com/settings/security/activity



5. List of all applications and extensions that access your data in Google



List of all applications that have any access to your data. You can see what rights they have and what they have access to. You can also revoke this access.
