Which term describes the process of tracking a user's location via their devices?

• A. Location tracking
• B. Web browser history
• C. Privacy
• D. General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR)

Answer: (A)

Location tracking is the process of collecting and recording a user’s geographic position and movements through their devices. It uses signals from GPS, Wi‑Fi, cell towers, or IP address data to determine where someone is and where they have been. This is different from web browser history, which logs pages a user visits, and from privacy in general or GDPR, which are broader concepts and rules about protecting personal data. So the specific term that describes following a user’s location with devices is location tracking.
