Reword Case 234

Proposal
Field Value
Name Your personal information may be collected, regardless of whether you interacted directly with the service or not
Description The service in question can collect your personal information without you having interacted with it at all. For example, users of this service could be able to link their contacts to their account, exposing other people’s personal information without them even knowing. Other times, the service could collect information from your social media accounts, which usually includes your followers/friends list.
Old Case
Field Value
Name Your data is collected even if you did not interact with the service directly
Description Some services store data on you even if you did not provide that data yourself. For example, users might provide access to their address book, after which a service might also store the phone numbers of that person’s contacts.
