Description

title: Lack of Proper Data Management Controls
id: MASWE-0069

The MASWE doesn't read yet mobile specific and should be re-worded. This MASWE could also apply to a website.

Maybe add things like:

  • No In-App Deletion Path: Requiring users to contact support or visit an external website to delete their account or data, rather than initiating it from within the app.
