I've been a humble cable puller for a while now. My new employer has an application called "skillsignal". I don't trust it. I don't have any reason to believe it's not snooping on me.

I haven't switched my operating system yet because I am pull cable.

How can I limit the snooping? What can I do to protect myself from this application?

Install https://f-droid.org/packages/dnsfilter.android that should limit tracking to a good extent. Also limit battery usage for this app so it does not run in the background without reason.

If your OS has a data usage option for apps. You can limit that from settings.

Any more privacy would entail advanced settings like installation this app in a secondary profile of your android, etc.
