Tinder
This site leans hard on your data.
5/5 checks · 1 third parties · 0 cookies · capped at D
Independent watchdogs found Tinder shares users' personal data, including location and dating preferences, with advertising and Match Group companies. A clean marketing site can’t change that — and a homepage scan can’t see what the app does once you log in — so this grade can’t rise above a D.
