information to them when they need it.

Shared location
Use Geotags cautiously to Protect Your Privacy
•Location data is being recorded about you without
your knowing it in many cases.
•Your cellphone provides location data to the cell
towers near it. When you send email, your ISP
provides data about where the email was sent
from and so on.
•Geo tagging can disclose your whereabouts and
activities to the wrong people, if you post the
latitude and longitude of your house.
