| The newspaper "Süddeutsche Zeitung" reports about PFA (26-02-2025) The Süddeutsche Zeitung (SZ) reported on the SECUSO Privacy Friendly Apps (PFA) in its edition of Monday, February 24. The games in particular were praised for being free of advertising and user tracking. The Privacy Friendly Apps developed by the SECUSO research group only request the permissions required for functionality and do not contain any tracking mechanisms, meaning that no (usage) data is collected. All applications of the Privacy Friendly Apps group can therefore be installed without any concerns regarding privacy violations. The Privacy Friendly Apps are only available for Android devices and can be downloaded from the Google Play Store or the F-Droid Store. Read the article |
