🧾 Amazon Fire 🧨 TV 📺 Data Usage Privacy Concerns and Settings

short url:

This page is going to show you how to claim 100% privacy with your Amazon Fire TV Stick.

By default, the Amazon Fire TV automatically shares all your Amazon Fire TV data usage. This step by step guide will show you how to shut down all that sharing of your Amazon Fire TV device data usage.

To Disable Amazon Fire TV Privacy Invasions

  1. Using the Amazon Fire TV remote control, press the Home button to go to the Amazon Fire TV home screen.
  2. Press the right side of the navigation ring of the Amazon Fire TV stick remote control until the the Amazon Fire TV settings cogwheel, to the far right, is selected and highlighted. This cog wheel is the Amazon Fire TV settings menu.
  3. With the Amazon Fire TV settings cogwheel now selected and highlighted, press the bottom section of the Amazon Fire TV remote control navigation ring to make the Amazon Fire TV settings screen fill the entire screen of the TV.
  4. Use the Amazon Fire TV navigation ring until the Preferences tile of the Amazon settings menu is selected and highlighted.
  5. Press the Enter button or Select button for the Amazon remote control so that you are taken to the Preferences page for the Amazon Fire TV.
  6. Use the Amazon Fire TV remote control navigation ring to scroll down until Privacy settings is selected and press the Enter or Select button on the Amazon Fire TV remote to go to your Amazon Fire TV privacy settings.
  7. The first Amazon Fire TV privacy setting breach we want to correct is the Device Usage Data which is nobodies God damned business, which should be shown as ON. We want to turn this OFF. Click this menu item.
  8. Select and click to turn off this privacy invasion.
  9. The next Amazon Fire TV privacy Invasion we want to correct is Collect App Usage Data which should be shown as being ON. We want to turn this privacy invasion OFF. Click this menu item.
  10. Again, select and click to turn off this privacy invasion.
  11. The final Amazon Fire TV privacy Invasion we want to correct is Interest-Based Ads which again should be indicated as being ON. Click this menu item.
  12. Once again, select and click to turn this privacy invasion off.

At this point, all three privacy setting invasions should be turned off ...

  1. Device Usage Data should be OFF.
  2. Collect App Usage Data should be OFF.
  3. Interest-Based Ads should be OFF.

Extra Precautionary Step to Ensure Amazon Fire TV Device Usage Privacy

While the visual indicators of your Amazon Fire TV will no show that your privacy is assured, the question arises as to whether you can and/or should trust these visual indicators of privacy.

An extra step you can take to further guarantee the privacy of your use of the Amazon Fire TV and the data associated with it, it is recommended you subscribe to some sort of virtual private networking service on your Amazon Fire TV stick. Most any VPN only costs $3 - $5 per month and is well worth that slight cost if you really value the privacy associated with your use of the Amazon Fire TV.

You can subscribe to a VPN for your Amazon Fire TV either from within the Fire TV stick itself, or subscribe to a VPN from the Amazon.com website.

Amazon Fire TV VPN Privacy from within the Amazon Fire TV Stick

  3. Click the Search box and type in VPN.
  4. A list of many virtual private networking apps compatible with the Amazon Fire TV will appear.

Amazon Fire TV VPN Privacy from Amazon.com

  1. Go to Amazon.com.
  2. In the Amazon.com search box at the top of the page type in fire tv vpn.
