Truecaller is actually a Caller ID and Spam Blocking service, whose main job is to tell Caller ID. That is to say the name of the owner of a phone number. Now you guys must be thinking how does the Truecaller know whose number it is? So behind this is the precious data of millions of users like you and us and this is the biggest danger for us. Today we will try to know whether the true caller is safe for us or not.
How does truecaller work?
The way Truecaller works is very simple. When you install the Truecaller app on your phone, it asks for your permission to access Contacts. And as soon as you give it permission, it uploads all your contacts to its server and distributes them to the whole world. Now you will say that if this is the case then do not allow the permission. But the problem is that this app will not work until you allow permission. That is, if you have to use the true caller app, then it will have to give the permission of Contacts. it's mandatory.
If you have installed the true caller app on your phone once, then all your contacts will be uploaded to the server of the true caller. Then whether you use the app or not, keep it in your phone or not, it does not matter. Because even after uninstalling the app, your contacts will be present on the server of the true caller. To date all the people who have installed the true caller app on their phone, all their contacts are present on the server of the true caller. And with the help of these contacts, the true caller gives you the information of Unknown Numbers.
True caller's privacy policy clearly states that it can share the data of its users with third-party companies and other countries. Meaning your data can be sold to another company or country. And you know what is interesting? You cannot resist this. Why? Because you completely agree with the true caller's Terms & Conditions.
Do we have any option other than this?
If I use the Truecaller Mobile App for the information of two-three numbers and give all my data to the tricolor, then there will be no one stupid in this world.
That's why I use Truecaller Web. Yes, you heard it right. I do not keep the mobile app of Tricolor on my phone, but use all the features of this app with the help of a Browser. how? Is very simple. Open TrueCaller's website in any browser of your phone and create a Truecaller Account with a fake Email ID. Remember, you do not have to provide your mobile number or personal email ID.
Now whenever you want to get information about the owner of an unknown number, you will open the website of Truecaller in your browser and search that number. Your work will be done. So in this way you can avail the services of true caller even without the app.
