Honor's privacy
protection philosophy

Privacy is a basic right of our users, and we've made privacy protection a prerequisite for all the products and services we
provide. From initial design to final delivery, we put privacy considerations into every step and give users autonomous control
over their personal information.

The five privacy design principles at
Honor

Data minimization

Minimal personal data collection and only when necessary. Data is kept only for as long as necessary to achieve the purpose.

Transparency and controllability

Provide clear and unambiguous notices when collecting personal information to ensure that you know how it is being used. You also have the right to opt out at any time.

On-device data processing

Process and analyze data on-device whenever possible.

User identity anonymization

Use privacy-enhancing technologies to protect user identity and prevent tracking.

Security

Use data protection technologies that are secure and reliable to safeguard your information.

Provide a full range of services by building on the
following five aspects of privacy protection

Information misuse prevention

Minimal permission recommendations

Minimal permission recommendations

Provide scenario-based recommendations on granting the least number of permissions that match app functions.

Identify scenario/usage-appropriate permissions by analyzing the basic functions of apps, and notify users of the recommended permission options.

& risk report

Privacy access history & risk report

Display 7-day privacy access records and risk reports, analyze potential risks and provide optimization suggestions.

You can view permission access records by going to Settings > Privacy. A top 5 list will also be generated for apps that most frequently accessed the Camera, Microphone, Location, and Contacts permissions. Tap an app to see its detailed permission access history, including the times a permission was granted or denied. Also, apps with unnecessary permissions or frequent background permission activity can be easily optimized with a single tap.

Harassment protection

Permission notification reduction

Learn more

Permission notification reduction

No more permission request notifications will be shown when a permission request is denied twice in a row to avoid harassing the user.

Select “DENY” when an app first requests a permission and then select “DENY AND DON’T ASK AGAIN" when this request is shown again to stop receiving further notifications.

Data disclosure protection

Repair mode

Learn more

Repair mode

When you send your phone in for repairs, just set it to repair mode so your photos, videos, text messages, messenger apps, contacts, audio recordings, payment apps, and mobile banking data remains hidden from the technicians handling your device.

Repair mode encrypts personal data using industry-leading algorithms to ensure encryption strength. When this feature is enabled, repair technicians can directly turn on the device for inspection and repairs without needing the lock screen password. When the repairs are done, the user can restore protected data by entering the lock screen password to disable repair mode.

Protect user behavior from being tracked

Position fuzzification

Learn more

Position fuzzification

Enable Fuzzy location in apps that don't need high location accuracy to avoid tracking.

When this feature is enabled, location data will be fuzzified to within 1 square kilometer for apps that do not require high location accuracy. This function can be used in apps such as weather and dating platforms.

Snooping prevention

Projection privacy protection

Learn more

Projection privacy protection

When projecting your phone screen to other devices, the login screens of apps will not be shown on the projected device by default. Also, WeChat messages, SMS, and other information will not be shown when projecting to HONOR Vision TVs.

When projecting your phone screen to PCs, tablets, and HONOR Vision TVs, your user name and password will not be shown if you are using the secure input method. When projecting to HONOR Vision TVs, chat messages will not be shown by default (this can be disabled if necessary).
