Where Bose privacy policy is concerned, think most music apps are all pretty much like that now a days.
Collecting music preference, what tracks you buy, email, IP, etc etc
What one needs to know, does it run in the background collecting other data from phone or try to adjust settings on phone.
The thing about it, most people download apps without reading it's "permissions".
For example, millions have the new Facebook Messenger app for mobile use and that has got to be one of the most intrusive apps around.
But in order to use FB chat from smartphone, they make you download it.
Except there is a way around that....by switching to "desktop" format instead of mobile.
Which is what I do if I need to reply to a message.
To be honest, think they all pretty much 'share' your info.....name, IP, email.
But it is the other permissions (violations) that bother me.
Most pretty much ask for complete access to your phone.
In fact, the other night my phone made a funny sound that I had never heard before.
I was at the counter and looked at the screen, and it was saying "Listening" with a blank screen.
Naturally I cleared it off of there (or at least I think I did) and went to see which app was running in background, and it showed none.
