Android Apps Share Data with Facebook

Previous research has shown how 42.55 percent of free apps on the Google Play store could share data with Facebook, making Facebook the second most prevalent third-party tracker after Google’s parent company Alphabet. In this report, Privacy International illustrates what this data sharing looks like in practice, particularly for people who do not have a Facebook account. Facebook routinely tracks users, non-users and logged-out users outside its platform through Facebook Business Tools.
