                               Every time an app asks for permission, it is really asking for access to a part of your
                              digital life.
                               Apps often request permission to access certain features on a device.

                               App permissions act like rules that control what an app is allowed to do on a device.

                               Storage permission allows an app to read and save files such as photos, documents

                               Granting too many permissions to apps can expose your data to unnecessary risks.

                               Download apps only from official app stores like Google Play or the Apple App Store.
