Missing Mention of User Data Deletion in Privacy Policy
Missing Mention of User Data Deletion in Privacy Policy
Description
The application does not mention in its privacy policy that users have the right to delete their data, leaving users unsure of their ability to control their personal information stored by the application.
Recommendation
To mitigate this vulnerability, ensure that your privacy policy clearly outlines the process for users to request the deletion of their data, including the steps they need to take and the timeframe in which their data will be deleted. Additionally, regularly review and update your privacy policy to ensure it remains compliant with relevant data protection regulations.
