While FaceApp's privacy policy throws some light on the app that makes users look old,it leaves more questions than answers.The main worry is whether it's clear to users that FaceApp is sending their photos to the cloud,instead of processing them privately on a person's equipment,and how long the company holds onto their photos. In a statement to Fortune,FaceApp CEO Yaroslav Goncharov said the company processes photos on the cloud,but "most" are deleted within 48 hours.The app's team is based in Russia,however the company says none of the data it processes is sent to the country. "The privacy policy is both pretty bad,and not much worse than the garden-variety policy you might come across from any app or service that didn't put time into trying to make its policy even somewhat understandable," says Lindsey Barrett,a teacher at Georgetown Law's Communications and Technology Clinic.From a privacy standpoint,she says "the company's statements about how it processes photos on the cloud,and when it deletes them,are helpful,but they don't make the terms of the privacy policy clearer." Users do have some rights.Goncharov says his support team is very busy,dealing with requests from users who want their data deleted from its servers.This can be done by going to settings,support,and choosing "report a bug." Users should type the word "privacy" in the subject line to send their request.(1)What worries people about FaceApp? ____ A.It will go out of date very soon.B.It may make people less hopeful.C.It may be collecting data secretly.D.It will charge users in the future.(2)What led people's worry to rise? ____ A.The unclearness of the terms of service.B.The country the company belongs to.C.The photos being over-processed.D.The places used to keep photos.(3)What do Barrett's words in Paragraph 4 mean? ____ A.FaceApp should provide more service.B.FaceApp still might affect people's privacy.C.The privacy policy is not known by people.D.The privacy policy is difficult to remember.(4)What right do users have according to Goncharov? ____ A.Saving their own photos.B.Reporting their request to the police.C.Making changes to privacy policies.D.Asking the support team to deleted their photos.

    FaceApp is getting popular,thanks to its old age filter that allows people to run their photos through the free app to see what they may look like 40 years in the future.However,its terms (条款) of service are also increasing worries about what data the app collects,who owns it,and how photos are processed(处理).The latest FaceApp's privacy policy was created on January 20,2017,and does little to address these worries in clear terms.
