Tinder

Yeah, Tinder is pretty bad for your privacy and security. 70,000 women's photos from Tinder shared on a dodgy site known for criminal activity. Security vulnerabilities that made it possible for attackers to monitor a user's every move on the dating app. Add in the fact that a Norwegian Consumer Council study recently found some of these Match Group sites may be sharing users' personal information like your location and dating preferences to third parties and other Match Group brands in ways that may violate privacy laws, and you've got yourself a potential privacy mess.There are just a few of the privacy and security problems Tinder has been accused of over the past few years. Match Group owns Tinder and at least 45 other dating sites like Hinge, Match, and OKCupid. When you sign up with one of these dating sites, the Match Group privacy policy states they may share your personal information with any of the other Match Groups sites for what they say are non-commercial limited and critical purposes. That's a lot of personal data you might have thought only going to once place getting shared across multiple dating sites.Oh, and remember, when you connect a social media account like Facebook to Tinder, both Facebook and Tinder now potentially collect more information together. That's why we recommend users don't link your dating app to Facebook. What's the worst that could happen? So many bad things have already happened on Tinder, we don't need to outline them here. Just head down to the updates section at the bottom of this page and read some of them yourself.
