Positive Security Features

- Third-party integrations are focused on security, payments, and core banking functionality rather than advertising or behavioral profiling
- Perfect scores in Data Collection, Data Sharing, and User Control reflect consistently responsible data practices
- High scores across all security categories indicate well-maintained protective measures throughout the app
Areas for Improvement
- Crash and diagnostic data is sent to Sentry; reviewing ING's privacy policy provides a clearer picture of what is included in those reports.
- The app uses several identity and document verification SDKs; checking each provider's data practices helps users understand how identity information is handled beyond the app itself.
- Greater transparency about what device information is shared with fraud-detection services would provide more visibility into how user data is used.
