Understanding YouTube's Data Policy
YouTube, like many other social media platforms, collects data from its users. But does it sell this data?

- YouTube uses data for advertising purposes, but they do not sell it to third-party companies.
- Advertisers can target ads based on user interests, but YouTube does not provide personally identifiable information.
