With so much to explore online, it’s important to keep in mind some basic precautions that everyone can take to safeguard the privacy of their online activities. In this workshop, we’ll learn to manage privacy settings in the Chrome browser app and on your Android smartphone or
tablet. We’ll explore Chrome's Incognito mode and look at how to manage app permissions and tracking on an Android device. Please bring your Android phone to class. 

This workshop includes hands-on practice and requires an Android phone. Android phones will not be provided.

This presentation is a part of the Senior Planet Licensing curriculum provided by Senior Planet from AARP.
