My Permissions – Terms of Use

About the Service
Our Service is software based and it allows you to control and manage the permissions that you provide third party software and services (‘apps’) to access your device and your personal information. The Service will scan these permissions on your behalf, provide you an easy way to ‘clean’ permissions, or remove apps altogether, display alerts or send them to you through email, about apps that access your personal information, and indicate if a certain app is trustworthy or not.
Certain features of the Service are free of charge. Others are fee-based.
Application Risk and Reputation Scores
We have analyzed over a million applications to create a unified application Risk Score. This score is comprised of multiple data factors and compares the risk level of different applications. We additionally collect users’ indications of trust and satisfaction (such as applications’ lifetime, uninstalls, explicit trusts and others), to create a unified application Reputation Score.
