Do you know what type of information Twitter keeps
on you? Basically, Twitter looks at the information you provide them as you wanting
that information to be made public. This would include your tweets, the lists
you create, the people you follow and your favorite tweets just to name a few
things.
Twitter also collects information about how you use
their service, whether it is your IP address, mobile device, operating system,
web pages visited, cookie information and so on. Ultimately, any information
that is public and is not marked as private, Twitter will share this
information.
However, Twitter is following the Do Not Track (DNT)
function found in a number of web browsers. When you activate the DNT, Twitter
will not adapt your account based on the web sites you have visited. So, just beware of what information you have on
Twitter and where it is going.
