1. 1. Wähle die richtige Antwort aus.

   Wer kann diese Angaben sehen?

   Maya's profile shows her name and city. Her profile setting says, "Public: anyone can view this profile."

   • Only people on her friends list.
   • Anyone who visits her profile.
   • Only people who live in her city.

   Show solution

   • Anyone who visits her profile.

   Öffentliche Informationen können Menschen erreichen, die du noch nie getroffen hast, nicht nur deine Freunde.

2. 2. Wähle die richtige Antwort aus.

   Welche privaten Informationen könnte das Foto preisgeben?

   Leo posts a photo of his new desk. In the background, a delivery box clearly shows his full home address.

   • The password for his shopping account.
   • The number on his payment card.
   • The place where he lives.

   Show solution

   • The place where he lives.

   Den Hintergrund vor dem Posten eines Fotos zu überprüfen, kann helfen, eine versehentliche Weitergabe von Informationen zu verhindern.

3. 3. Fülle die Lücke aus.

   Your phone's contact list contains your friends' names and phone numbers. Letting an app read this list shares ___.

   • other people's personal details
   • only your own personal details
   • only the app developer's details

   Denk darüber nach, wessen Informationen in der Liste stehen.

   Show solution

   Your phone's contact list contains your friends' names and phone numbers. Letting an app read this list shares other people's personal details.

   Eine Berechtigung, die du erteilst, kann sich auch auf die Privatsphäre anderer Menschen auswirken.

4. 4. Wähle die richtige Antwort aus.

   What will happen when you return to the site?

   You add shoes to an online shopping cart and leave the site. The site uses a cookie, a small file, to remember your cart.

   • The shoes will already be paid for.
   • The shoes will still be in your cart.
   • The store will no longer see your cart.

   Show solution

   • The shoes will still be in your cart.

   Cookies can support useful features, such as remembering a cart or a language setting.

5. 5. Wähle die richtige Antwort aus.

   Wie kannst du weniger Informationen preisgeben und trotzdem den Newsletter erhalten?

   A newsletter form requires your email address. Your birthday is optional.

   • Provide your birthday but leave out your email address.
   • Provide both your email address and your birthday.
   • Provide your email address but leave out your birthday.

   Welche Angabe braucht der Dienst tatsächlich?

   Show solution

   • Provide your email address but leave out your birthday.

   Bei optionalen Feldern kannst du entscheiden, ob du zusätzliche Informationen teilen möchtest.

6. 6. Fülle die Lücke aus.

   You let a weather app use your current location to show a local forecast. For this feature, you share information about ___.

   • where you are
   • who you call
   • what you buy

   Die App muss wissen, für welches Gebiet sie das Wetter anzeigen soll.

   Show solution

   You let a weather app use your current location to show a local forecast. For this feature, you share information about where you are.

   Eine nützliche Funktion kann einen Kompromiss beim Datenschutz mit sich bringen: bessere lokale Ergebnisse im Austausch für Standortdaten.

7. 7. Wähle die richtige Antwort aus.

   Was kann man aus diesem Bericht erfahren?

   A bus app publishes the total number of riders on each route. The report includes no names or details about individual trips.

   • Which route a particular person took.
   • Which route carried the most riders.
   • Where a particular person got off.

   Der Bericht beschreibt Gruppen, nicht einzelne Fahrgäste.

   Show solution

   • Which route carried the most riders.

   Gesamtzahlen für Gruppen können helfen, einen Service zu verbessern, ohne die Fahrt jeder einzelnen Person offenzulegen.

8. 8. Wähle die richtige Antwort aus.

   Wer könnte außerdem deine E-Mail-Adresse erhalten?

   A travel website's privacy notice says, "We may share your email address with partner companies so they can send you offers."

   • Every person who visits the travel website.
   • Only the company that provides your email account.
   • Other companies that work with the travel website.

   Überlege, was "partner companies" hier bedeutet.

   Show solution

   • Other companies that work with the travel website.

   Informationen, die einem Dienst mitgeteilt werden, können je nach dessen Richtlinien zur Datenweitergabe an andere Unternehmen weitergegeben werden.

9. 9. Wähle die richtige Antwort aus.

   Wo könnte noch eine Kopie vorhanden sein?

   An online storage service keeps a separate copy of your photos. Its instructions say that deleting a photo from your phone does not delete the online copy. You delete a photo only from your phone.

   • In your online storage.
   • Only on your phone.
   • Nowhere, because both copies were deleted.

   Es gab zwei separate Kopien.

   Show solution

   • In your online storage.

   Bevor du etwas löschst, prüfe, welche Kopien von der Aktion betroffen sind; Speicherdienste können unterschiedlich funktionieren.

10. 10. Wähle die richtige Antwort aus.

    Why might you see ads for hiking boots?

    A video app uses your viewing history to select ads. Recently, you watched several videos about hiking.

    • The app has confirmed that you own hiking boots.
    • Your viewing history suggests an interest in hiking.
    • The app knows that you are hiking right now.

    Think about what the videos you watched suggest, even if they do not prove anything.

    Show solution

    • Your viewing history suggests an interest in hiking.

    Services can guess your interests from your behavior, even if you never state those interests.

    What does this feature mainly do?

    You use private browsing on a shared computer. After you close all private windows, the browser does not keep those pages in its browsing history.

    • It hides your identity from every website you visit.
    • It hides your online activity from your internet provider.
    • It hides your browsing history from later users of that computer.

    Think about where the history is not being saved.

    Show solution

    • It hides your browsing history from later users of that computer.

    Private browsing limits records on the device; it does not make you invisible online.

12. 12. Fülle die Lücke aus.

    A chat app removes a photo after it is viewed, but the person receiving it can save a screenshot. This means the photo ___.

    • can exist outside the chat
    • must disappear from every device
    • can only be seen by its sender

    A screenshot creates another copy.

    Show solution

    A chat app removes a photo after it is viewed, but the person receiving it can save a screenshot. This means the photo can exist outside the chat.

    A disappearing-message feature cannot guarantee that the person receiving a message will not keep a copy.

13. 13. Wähle die richtige Antwort aus.

    Was bedeutet dieser Schutz?

    Your connection to an online store is encrypted: the information is protected while it travels between your browser and the store.

    • The store cannot read the information you send it.
    • The connection helps keep your information private during its journey.
    • The store will never share your information with another company.

    Achte darauf, wann der Schutz gilt.

    Show solution

    • The connection helps keep your information private during its journey.

    Eine geschützte Verbindung sagt dir nicht, wie der Shop deine Daten verwendet, nachdem sie dort angekommen sind.

14. 14. Wähle die richtige Antwort aus.

    Was könnte den Diensten helfen, deine beiden Konten miteinander zu verknüpfen?

    Two services share their user records with each other. You use a different screen name on each service, but both records contain the same email address.

    • The screen names, because they are different.
    • A home address that neither record contains.
    • The email address that appears in both records.

    Suche nach einer Angabe, die beide Datensätze gemeinsam haben.

    Show solution

    • The email address that appears in both records.

    Unterschiedliche Anzeigenamen reichen möglicherweise nicht aus, um Konten getrennt zu halten, wenn eine andere persönliche Angabe übereinstimmt.

15. 15. Wähle die richtige Antwort aus.

    Was ändert sich, wenn du diese Einstellung zur Weitergabe deaktivierst?

    A fitness app lets you stop sharing activity data with advertisers. The setting says the app will still collect activity data to show your own progress.

    • The app still records your activity but stops sending it to advertisers.
    • The app stops recording all new activity.
    • The app erases all activity data that advertisers received earlier.

    Das Sammeln von Informationen und ihre Weitergabe sind unterschiedliche Vorgänge.

    Show solution

    • The app still records your activity but stops sending it to advertisers.

    Das Unterbinden künftiger Weitergabe bedeutet nicht unbedingt, dass die Erfassung gestoppt oder bereits weitergegebene Kopien entfernt werden.
