Farcaster and TBA have different privacy policies on their apps. On the surface Farcaster’s looks better except “contact information”. I’m not sure what that means practically. My name and address? Everyone in my contacts? TBA’s bothers me more because I use Coinbase (as minimally as possible) and thats a big picture when my data available is joined. Any security/privacy experts want to chime in?

in my case, i am able to see detailed info on each category if i navigate the App Privacy menu further (you have the right arrow, in my case it's See Details) in case it doesn't work for you, here is what info is claimed to be collected specifically for Contact Info: - Email Address - Name contacts are not mentioned under any category. e.g. if i check whatsapp it is written as 'Contacts' under App Functionality note: while jurisdiction matters (i am based in the EU with its own privacy policies), i think the app store policy is uniform in requiring devs to declare all types of data they collect and for what purposes happy to expand if you have questions

Ohh thank you so much! I do have a couple more if you don’t mind. What data points are identifiers? Also I’m guessing location is based on IP?
