Mail Privacy Protection - Stop email senders from collecting information about you from Apple Mail and prevent senders from knowing when you have opened an email by masking your IP address to not link to other online activity or your location.
Intelligent Tracking Prevention - Helps protect Safari web browsers' from unwanted tracking by hiding your IP address, meaning it cannot be used as a unique identifier to connect activity across websites and build a targetted profile on you.
App Privacy Report - See how often apps access your location, photos, camera, microphone, and contacts during the past seven days.
Process Audio of Siri Requests on Device - Process of your audio requests to Apple's Siri will be directly on your iPhone or iPad by default. Instead of the audio being sent to a remote service and then kept for other purposes such as marketing, like Amazon's Alexa devices already do.
