Younger people appear to be far more comfortable than their older counterparts when it comes to sharing data on their mobile device activities.

According to a June 2017 Bank of America study of US smartphone users, millennials were more amenable to the idea that their smartphones were tracking everything from physical activity to news preferences. 

For instance, 45% of millennials were OK with their phones tracking their spending habits, compared with just 26% of all respondents. In addition, 44% of millennials were comfortable with devices tracking their location, with just 37% of those polled saying the same.

Similarly, February 2017 data from Retail Dive conducted by Google found that millennials ages 25 to 34 were three times more likely than respondents 65 and older to share personal information with their favorite retailer.
