Google stores your location, knows what you've searched for, what apps you've installed... and even keeps the content you've deleted.

Dylan Curran, a technical consultant and web developer, shared his findings about the data Google stores without users knowing. His tweet quickly went viral, garnering over 200,000 retweets and receiving support from former NSA contractor Edward Snowden.

According to Curran, Google will keep a record of your location every time you turn on your phone, of course, you have to enable the location feature on your smartphone. Users can see the history of where they have been since the day they first logged into Google on their phone, fully and detailedly stored up to today. Click here to check.

Google, known for its search engine, knows what you've searched for on the Internet. The problem is that even if you delete your search history on your device, it won't completely erase your "traces." Review what you've searched for here.

Google also stores information about every app and widget you use. The tech company knows how often you interact with these apps and who you use them with. That means Google knows who you talk to on Facebook and when you go to bed.

Google has been recording users' Internet data for years.

Everything you watch on YouTube is recorded by Google. So it knows whether you're a parent, whether you're conservative or progressive, what religion you follow, and what kind of mood you're in.

Gigabytes of information about you are still being quietly stored by Google all this time. This can include your web bookmarks, email addresses, phone contacts, files stored on Google Drive, photos taken on your phone, services and products you have purchased from Google...

It can be said that along with Facebook, Google holds all the information about you on the Internet. "Google and Facebook have exploited your trust to create a decade-long dossier of your personal activities," former NSA spy Edward Snowden shared on Twitter.
