Consider the following scenario: A student is installing an app on a mobile phone. While installing,
a message appears asking for permissions such as Location, Contacts, Photos and Camera.
Instead of quickly clicking “Allow,” the student pauses and thinks carefully. A thought bubble
appears with questions like, “Why does the app need this?” and “Who can see my data?” This
small step helps the student make a responsible decision.
Before sharing personal information online, always take a moment to think. Understanding why
the app needs your data and how it might be used can help you stay safe and protect your
privacy in the digital world.

Aman buys a smart watch that tracks his steps, heart rate and sleep patterns. The
device asks for permission to store and share health data. Aman reads the privacy settings
carefully and chooses to share only basic information. He also sets a strong password to protect
his data and disables location tracking when it is not required. In addition, Aman regularly checks
app updates and reviews privacy permissions. By taking these steps, he ensures that his personal
information remains secure and protected.

Based on the above case, answer the following questions:
1. What information did the smart watch collect?

2. What could happen if personal data is not protected?
