New privacy guidelines are available to help mobile application developers protect their customers, California Attorney General Kamala Harris said Thursday.
In a free report, “Privacy on the Go: Recommendations for the Mobile Ecosystem” [PDF], Harris’ team outlines the minimum steps that developers can take to comply with California online privacy laws and to help customers protect their data. The report follows other announcements from Harris, in 2012, that notable companies Amazon.com Inc., Apple Inc., Google Inc., Facebook Inc., Hewlett-Packard Co., Microsoft Corp., and Research In Motion Ltd. pledged to follow privacy guidelines.
