Privacy and Security Issues Associated with Mobile Dating Applications
2018 Proceedings of the Conference on Information Systems Applied Research ISSN: 2167-1508 Norfolk, Virginia v11 n 4823 Privacy and Security Issues Associated with Mobile Dating Applications Dr. Darren R. Hayes [email protected] Pace University Sapienza Università di Roma Christopher Snow [email protected] Pace University New York, NY Abstract Mobile dating application (app) usage has grown exponentially, while becoming more effective at connecting people romantically. Given the sensitive nature of the information users are required to provide, to effectively match a couple, our research sought to understand if app permissions and privacy policies were enough for a user to adequately determine the amount of personal information being collected and shared. Based on a static and dynamic analysis of three popular dating apps for Android and iPhone, our conclusion is that dating app developers are collecting and sharing personal information that extends well beyond publicly stated privacy policies, which tend to be vague at best. Furthermore, the security protocols, utilized by dating app developers, could be deemed relatively inadequate, thereby posing potential risk to both consumers and organizations. While social media companies have been the primary focus for discussions surrounding the implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union, our research findings indicate that third- party analytical companies and big data gatherers need to be more closely examined for potential violations. Keywords: GDPR, Privacy, Mobile Advertising, Big Data, Mobile Forensics, Android 1. INTRODUCTION two years, from 10% to 27% (Smith and Anderson, 2016). Therefore, it is important for There were 3.6 million applications (“apps”) on individuals to clearly understand the potential Google Play and 2.1 million iOS applications on security risks and privacy issues associated with Apple’s App Store in 2017 and a mere 8.5% of dating apps.

Some Mobile Apps Add Anonymity to Social Networking
Log in / Create an account Search Subscribe Topics+ The Download Magazine Events More+ Connectivity Some Mobile Apps Add Anonymity to Social Networking Social-networking apps that eschew real names are gaining ground. by Rachel Metz February 6, 2014 On social networks like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, most people do not communicate freely, for fear of the repercussions. For just over a decade, Facebook has enforced the idea of an authentic online identity tied to each user of a social network. This might be fine for sharing news of a promotion or new baby with friends, but sometimes you’d probably like to post a status update that won’t go on your permanent record. This urge might explain why millions of people, many of them under the age of 25, are flocking to a free smartphone app called Whisper, which lets you share thoughts—a few lines of text set against a background image—without adding your real name. Secret, a newer free app for the iPhone that shares posts anonymously through your existing social networks, is based on the same idea. After years spent filling social networks like Facebook and Twitter with the minutiae of our lives, we’ve left permanent, heavily curated trails of personal data in our wake—over 1.2 billion of them on Facebook alone, judging by its user count. New apps allow us to continue being social without worrying about the repercussions of sharing the most personal confessions. “Facebook is more like the global social network; it’s like our communication layer to the world,” says Anthony Rotolo, an assistant professor at Syracuse University, who studies social networks.
