A. To protect your privacy, consider using a VPN (Virtual Private Network) when accessing textPlus. This can help mask your IP address and encrypt your internet connection, making it harder for third parties to track your online activities. Additionally, review the privacy settings within the app to limit data sharing. Look for options that allow you to opt-out of data collection or sharing with third parties.

B. Regularly check the app's privacy policy for updates. If you find that the data collection practices are not acceptable, consider using alternative communication apps that prioritize user privacy and do not sell user data.
