The label has no “Data Used to Track You” section.
No. PowerBrowser by PowerDAO's label has no “Data Used to Track You” section, so the developer states it does not link your data with other companies' data for advertising or sell it to data brokers. It does collect location, browsing history, search history, contact info, identifiers, usage data and diagnostics, of which identifiers and usage data are linked to you.
What “tracking” means on an iPhone
Apple defines tracking as linking data from this app with data from other companies' apps, websites or offline sources for targeted advertising or ad measurement, or sharing it with a data broker. It is narrower than “collecting data”: an app can collect a lot without tracking you, and a small app can track you with a single advertising SDK.
Since iOS 14.5, App Tracking Transparency requires every app to ask before it accesses your device's advertising identifier or otherwise tracks you. The App Store label is where the developer declares which of its data is used that way. PowerBrowser by PowerDAO declares none, so it has no reason to show that prompt.
What PowerBrowser by PowerDAO collects instead
No tracking does not mean no collection. PowerBrowser by PowerDAO's label lists 7 data types, and identifiers and usage data are linked to your identity:
- Location — where your phone is, either precisely (street level) or approximately (city or area) (not linked to you)
- Browsing History — websites and other content you viewed that is not part of the app (not linked to you)
- Search History — searches you run inside the app (not linked to you)
- Contact Info — your name, email address, phone number or postal address (not linked to you)
- Identifiers — an account ID, screen name, customer number or a device-level ID such as the advertising identifier (linked to you)
- Usage Data — what you tap, open and view inside the app, plus which ads you have seen (linked to you)
- Diagnostics — crash logs, launch times, hang rates and energy use (not linked to you)
